Journal ArticleDOI

Saturated fatty acids induce endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis independently of ceramide in liver cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that saturated fatty acids disrupt endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis and induce apoptosis in liver cells via mechanisms that do not involve ceramide accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipid-induced insulin resistance mediated by the proinflammatory receptor TLR4 requires saturated fatty acid-induced ceramide biosynthesis in mice.

TL;DR: It is shown here that TLR4 is an upstream signaling component required for saturated fatty acid-induced ceramide biosynthesis, and that sphingolipids such as ceramide might be key components of the signaling networks that link lipid-induced inflammatory pathways to the antagonism of insulin action that contributes to diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Saturated Fatty Acids Promote Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Liver Injury in Rats with Hepatic Steatosis

TL;DR: It is shown that hepatic steatosis characterized by increased saturated fatty acids is associated with increased liver injury and markers of endoplasmic reticulum stress, and the composition of fatty acids in the steatotic liver is an important determinant of susceptibility to liver injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fuel metabolism in men and women during and after long-duration exercise

TL;DR: The view that different priorities are placed on lipid and carbohydrate oxidation during exercise in men and women is supported and that these gender-based differences extend to the catecholamine response to exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of fatty acids in the development and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: Data suggest that saturated fatty acids may represent an intrinsic second hit to the liver that hastens the development of NASH.
