Dietary fatty acids from pomegranate seeds (Punica granatum) inhibit adipogenesis and impact the expression of the obesity-associated mRNA transcripts in human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Obesity is a metabolic disorder that manifests into various forms. Recent studies have indicated that the pomegranate (Punica granatum) seed oil (PSO) has many biologically active components that help in controlling diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance. However, its impact on the adipogenic

10-oxo-12(Z)-octadecenoic acid, a linoleic acid metabolite produced by gut lactic acid bacteria, enhances energy metabolism by activation of TRPV1.

Gut microbiota can regulate the host energy metabolism; however, the underlying mechanisms that could involve gut microbiota-derived compounds remain to be understood. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of KetoA [10-oxo-12(Z)-octadecenoic acid]-a linoleic acid metabolite produced

Gut microbiota confers host resistance to obesity by metabolizing dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Gut microbiota mediates the effects of diet, thereby modifying host metabolism and the incidence of metabolic disorders. Increased consumption of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) that is abundant in Western diet contributes to obesity and related diseases. Although gut-microbiota-related

Link between plasma trans-fatty acid and fatty liver is moderated by adiposity.

BACKGROUND The prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is rising. This increase may be associated with obesity. It has been suggested that trans-fatty acids (TFAs) play an important role in non-communicable diseases. OBJECTIVE We examined the link between liver tests, fatty liver

Oxidized products of linoleic acid stimulate adrenal steroidogenesis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Adrenal steroidogenesis is under complex control, and clinical observations suggest that not all regulators have been identified. We postulated that fatty acid oxidation products found in the diet or formed in the body could affect steroidogenesis. Linoleic acid is a prominent constituent of animal

An oxidized derivative of linoleic acid stimulates dehydroepiandrosterone production by human adrenal cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

We previously reported that an oxidized derivative of linoleic acid stimulated steroidogenesis in rat adrenal cells. This derivative was also detected in human plasma, and was positively correlated with visceral adiposity and plasma DHEA-S. The present study sought to characterize the effects of

Two unsaturated fatty acids with potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity purified from the body wall of sea cucumber (Stichopus japonicus).

One therapeutic approach for preventing diabetes mellitus and obesity is to retard the absorption of glucose via inhibition of α-glucosidase. Two unsaturated fatty acids with strong α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, 7(Z)-octadecenoic acid (1) and 7(Z),10(Z)-octadecadienoic acid (2), were purified

Adipose tissue trans-fatty acids and changes in body weight and waist circumference.

Only registered users can translate articles

Previous studies have suggested that the intake of trans-fatty acids (TFA) plays a role in the development of obesity. The proportions of adipose tissue fatty acids not synthesised endogenously in humans, such as TFA, usually correlate well with the dietary intake. Hence, the use of these biomarkers

An oxidized derivative of linoleic acid affects aldosterone secretion by adrenal cells in vitro.

Only registered users can translate articles

Based on the clinical observation that humans with visceral adiposity have higher plasma aldosterone levels than controls, we postulated that endogenous fatty acids can be oxidized by the liver to form stimuli of the adrenal cortex. Although we could show that hepatocytes produced adrenal stimuli

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry study of the root and herb of Smallanthus sonchifolius.

Only registered users can translate articles

Smallanthus sonchifolius (yacon) is a new prospective plant cultivated in Europe as a natural sugarcane substitute. It is used for diabetes and for the prevention of obesity. The study of carboxylic acids in the roots and herb of S. sonchifolius was carried out for the first time by gas

An oxidized metabolite of linoleic acid stimulates corticosterone production by rat adrenal cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Oxidized derivatives of linoleic acid have the potential to alter steroidogenesis. One such derivative is 12,13-epoxy-9- keto-10-(trans)-octadecenoic acid (EKODE). To evaluate the effect of EKODE on corticosterone production, dispersed rat zona fasciculata/reticularis (subcapsular) cells were

Plasma total and free fatty acids composition in human non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), the association of steatosis with an inflammatory response, is a novel liver disease of unknown pathogenesis and prognosis. Triacylglycerols and their precursors, the fatty acids, are the likely candidates to accumulate in the hepatocyte. Disturbed

The cold-induced lipokine 12,13-diHOME promotes fatty acid transport into brown adipose tissue.

Only registered users can translate articles

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and beige adipose tissue combust fuels for heat production in adult humans, and so constitute an appealing target for the treatment of metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes and hyperlipidemia. Cold exposure can enhance energy expenditure by activating BAT, and it

Epoxy-keto derivative of linoleic acid stimulates aldosterone secretion.

Only registered users can translate articles

Plasma levels of aldosterone are not always predictable from the activity of renin and the concentration of potassium. Among the unexplained are elevated levels of aldosterone in some obese humans. Obesity is characterized by increased plasma fatty acids and oxidative stress. We postulated that

α-Glucosidase inhibitory activities of fatty acids purified from the internal organ of sea cucumber Stichopus japonicas.

Only registered users can translate articles

α-Glucosidase inhibitory activities of the various solvent fractions (n-hexane, CHCl3 , EtOAc, BuOH, and water) of sea cucumber internal organ were investigated. 1,3-Dipalmitolein (1) and cis-9-octadecenoic acid (2) with potent α-glucosidase inhibitory activity were purified from the n-hexane
