Fas cell surface death receptor controls hepatic lipid metabolism by regulating mitochondrial function

Johan Auwerx, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Eija Riitta Pirinen, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is one of the most prevalent metabolic disorders and it tightly associates with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Reduced mitochondrial lipid oxidation contributes to hepatic fatty acid accumulation. Her ...

Background & Aims: Mitochondria) dysfunction, oxidative stress, inflammation, and metabolic reprograming are crucial contributors to hepatic injury and subsequent liver fibrosis. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARP) and their interactions with sirtuins play ...

Role of ACMSD in regulation of NAD+ metabolism and mitochondrial function

Elena Katsyuba

Discovered in the beginning of the 20th century, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) has evolved from a simple oxidoreductase cofactor to being an essential cosubstrate for a wide range of regulatory proteins that include most notoriously the sirtuin ...

Impaired SUMOylation of nuclear receptor LRH-1 promotes nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Kristina Schoonjans, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Hadrien Charles Edouard Demagny, Dongryeol Ryu, Xu Wang, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer, Pan Xu

Hepatic steatosis is caused by metabolic imbalances that could be explained in part by an increase in de novo lipogenesis that results from increased sterol element binding protein 1 (SREBP-1) activity. The nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) ...

Encapsulated hepatocyte transplantation and encapsulated mesenchymal stem cell transplantation are newly developed potential treatments for acute and chronic liver diseases, respectively. Cells are microencapsulated in biocompatible semi-permeable alginate ...

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Obesity-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) develops, in part, via excess insulin-stimulated hepatic de novo lipogenesis, which increases, paradoxically, in patients with obesity-induced insulin resistance. Pleckstrin homolo ...

Nuclear receptors farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and small heterodimer partner (SHP) are important regulators of bile acid, lipid, and glucose homeostasis. Here, we show that global Fxr(-/-) Shp(-/-) double knockout (DKO) mice are refractory to weight gain, gl ...

A System for In Vivo Imaging of Hepatic Free Fatty Acid Uptake

Grigory Karateev

Alterations in hepatic free fatty acid (FFA) uptake and metabolism contribute to the development of prevalent liver disorders such as hepatosteatosis. However, detecting dynamic changes in FFA uptake by the liver in live model organisms has proven difficul ...

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterized by liver steatosis and inflammation. Currently, the underlying mechanisms leading to hepatic inflammation are not fully understood and consequently, therapeutic options are poor. Non-alcoholic steatohep ...
