Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship of obesity with osteoporosis.

TL;DR: The relationship between obesity and osteoporosis is reevaluate by accounting for the mechanical loading effects of total body weight on bone mass and the phenotypic correlation between fat mass and fat mass was negative, suggesting increasing fat mass may not have a beneficial effect on bonemass.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Formation of Highly Soluble Oligomers of α-Synuclein Is Regulated by Fatty Acids and Enhanced in Parkinson's Disease

TL;DR: It is concluded that alpha S interacts with PUFAs in vivo to promote the formation of highly soluble oligomers that precede the insoluble alpha S aggregates associated with neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of obesity and osteoporosis: effect of fat mass on the determination of osteoporosis.

TL;DR: It is unclear whether fat has beneficial effects on bone, and it is anticipated that this will be an active and fruitful focus of research in the coming years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ionization and phase behavior of fatty acids in water: application of the Gibbs phase rule

TL;DR: The phase behavior of several medium-chain and long-chain fatty acids in water was examined as a function of the ionization state of the carboxyl group to provide insights into the physical states of fatty acid in biological systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fast/Glycolytic muscle fiber growth reduces fat mass and improves metabolic parameters in obese mice.

TL;DR: It is indicated that an increase in fast/glycolytic muscle mass can result in the regression of obesity and metabolic improvement through its ability to alter fatty acid oxidation in remote tissues.
