Saturated free fatty acids induce cholangiocyte lipoapoptosis.
UNLABELLED Recent studies have identified a cholestatic variant of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with portal inflammation and ductular reaction. Based on reports of biliary damage, as well as increased circulating free fatty acids (FFAs) in NAFLD, we hypothesized the involvement of cholangiocyte lipoapoptosis as a mechanism of cellular injury. Here, we demonstrate that the saturated ...
متن کاملFatty Acids: Straight-chain Saturated
Straightor normal-chain, saturated components (even-numbered) make up 10-40% of the total fatty acids in most natural lipids. The most abundant saturated fatty acids in animal and plant tissues are straight-chain compounds with 14, 16 and 18 carbon atoms, but all the possible oddand even-numbered homologues with 2 to 36 carbon atoms have been found in nature in esterified form. They are named s...
متن کاملFoxO3 increases miR-34a to cause palmitate-induced cholangiocyte lipoapoptosis
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients have elevated plasma saturated free fatty acid levels. These toxic fatty acids can induce liver cell death and our recent results demonstrated that the biliary epithelium may be susceptible to lipotoxicity. Here, we explored the molecular mechanisms of cholangiocyte lipoapoptosis in cell culture and in an animal model of NASH. Treatment of cholangioc...
متن کاملAlbumin-associated free fatty acids induce macropinocytosis in podocytes.
Podocytes are specialized epithelial cells in the kidney glomerulus that play important structural and functional roles in maintaining the filtration barrier. Nephrotic syndrome results from a breakdown of the kidney filtration barrier and is associated with proteinuria, hyperlipidemia, and edema. Additionally, podocytes undergo changes in morphology and internalize plasma proteins in response ...
متن کاملSynthesis of isotopically labeled saturated fatty acids.
An approach to the synthesis of isotopically labeled saturated fatty acids is outlined which is based on the copper-catalyzed coupling of an omega-bromo acid with an isotopically labeled Grignard reagent. The method provides high yields of pure products and offers considerable flexibility in the type of isotopically enriched compound that can be prepared.-DasGupta, S. K., D. M. Rice, and R. G. ...
