TLDR
The protection in fructokinase knockout mice suggests a key role for fructose (from sucrose) in this development of steatohepatitis, and emphasize the important role of fructose in the development of fatty liver and nonalcoholic steato hepatitis.

The Sweet Path to Metabolic Demise: Fructose and Lipid Synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors link fructose consumption with metabolic disease, an association attributable in part to fructose-mediated lipogenesis, and propose interventions that decrease fructose consumption and therapies that block fructose-induced lipogenesis.

Dietary Sugars and Endogenous Formation of Advanced Glycation Endproducts: Emerging Mechanisms of Disease.

TL;DR: The most recent reports on the effects of high sugar consumption and diet-derived AGEs on human health suggest the need to limit the dietary sources of A GEs, including added sugars, to prevent the development of metabolic diseases and related comorbidities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of Fructose-Mediated Advanced Glycation End Products and Their Roles in Metabolic and Inflammatory Diseases.

TL;DR: Exogenous and endogenous fructose metabolism, fructose glycation, and in vitro, animal, and human data are summarized to put the fructose-mediated Maillard reaction in the limelight again as a contributing factor in chronic inflammatory diseases and MetS.

A splicing switch from ketohexokinase-C to ketohexokinase-A drives hepatocellular carcinoma formation

TL;DR: A pivotal mechanism underlying the distinct fructose metabolism between HCC cells and normal hepatocytes is revealed and the instrumental role of KHK-A protein kinase activity in promoting de novo nucleic acid synthesis and HCC development is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diets rich in fructose, fat or fructose and fat alter intestinal barrier function and lead to the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease over time

TL;DR: The data suggest that chronic intake of fructose and/or fat may lead to the development of NAFLD over time and that this is associated with an increased translocation of bacterial endotoxin.

Evolution of inflammation in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: The multiple parallel hits hypothesis†

TL;DR: Endoplasmic reticulum stress and related signaling networks, (adipo)cytokines, and innate immunity are emerging as central pathways that regulate key features of NASH.

Fructose consumption as a risk factor for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: The pathogenic mechanism underlying the development of NAFLD may be associated with excessive dietary fructose consumption, and fructose resulted in dose-dependent increase in KHK protein and activity.

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome: Further evidence for an etiologic association

TL;DR: Hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance occur frequently in patients with NASH; these conditions do not stem from a reduced hepatic insulin extraction but from an enhanced pancreatic insulin secretion compensatory to reduced insulin sensitivity.

Dietary habits and their relations to insulin resistance and postprandial lipemia in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

TL;DR: Dietary habits may promote steatohepatitis directly by modulating hepatic triglyceride accumulation and antioxidant activity as well as indirectly by affecting insulin sensitivity and postprandial triglyceride metabolism.

The role of fructose in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and the metabolic syndrome.

TL;DR: Excessive dietary fructose consumption may underlie the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and the metabolic syndrome, and it is postulate that NAFLD and alcoholic fatty Liver disease share the same pathogenesis.
