Proteomic analysis of the inhibitory effect of epigallocatechin gallate on lipid accumulation in human HepG2 cells

TLDR
The proteomic analysis hypothesized that EGCG reduced cellular lipid accumulation in FFA-induced HepG2 cells through the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) resulting from the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
Abstract
Background (−)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the most abundant catechin found in green tea, effectively reduces body weight and tissue and blood lipid accumulation. To explore the mechanism by which EGCG inhibits cellular lipid accumulation in free fatty acid (FFA) induced HepG2 cell culture, we investigated the proteome change of FFA-induced HepG2 cells exposed to EGCG using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.

Potential Biological Effects of (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate on the Treatment of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

TL;DR: The objectives of this paper are to review and discuss the currently known targets, signaling pathways and roles of EGCG that interfere with NAFLD pathogenesis, then providing additional experimental evidence and the foundation for the further studies and clinical applications of E GCG in the prevention and treatment ofNAFLD.

Chardonnay Grape Seed Flour Ameliorates Hepatic Steatosis and Insulin Resistance via Altered Hepatic Gene Expression for Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Lipid and Ceramide Synthesis in Diet-Induced Obese Mice

TL;DR: The effects of ChrSd supplementation in a HF diet on weight gain, insulin resistance, and progression of hepatic steatosis in DIO mice were associated with modulation of hepatics genes related to oxidative stress, inflammation, ceramide synthesis, and lipid and cholesterol metabolism.

Salacia reticulata has therapeutic effects on obesity

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the extract of S. reticulata has therapeutic effects on obesity and metabolic disorders by enhancing lipogenesis genes and suppressing lipolysis genes through the activation of AMPKα in adipocytes.

Potency of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) extract and curcumin as anti-obesity by inhibiting the cholesterol and triglycerides synthesis in HepG2 cells

TL;DR: The C. longa extract is suggested to have the anti-adipogenesis potential on inhibiting the synthesis of triglycerides and cholesterol and lipid droplet formation in HepG2 cell as anti-obesity parameters better than curcumin.

Identification of novel protein targets regulated by maternal dietary fatty acid composition in neonatal rat liver

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that early fatty acid nutrition impacts hepatic metabolic pathways relevant to gluconeogenesis, redox balance and nitric oxide signaling and fructose-1,6-biphosphatase is acetylated at the N-terminus.

Stereospecific effects of catechin isomers on insulin induced lipogenesis in 3T3-L1 cells.

TL;DR: Data suggest a biological significance of catechins, with opposite effects on lipid metabolism depending on the isomer, and the activities of glycerophosphate dehydrogenase were changed by (+)‐ and (−)‐catechin in the same direction as the corresponding changes in triglyceride accumulation.

Effect of unsaturated fatty acids on sterol biosynthesis in yeast.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the stimulation of enzyme induction and sterol biosynthesis in fatty acid supplemented cells is due to a completion of the protein-synthesizing apparatus during cell growth, and a markedly enhanced capacity of these cells to incorporate leucine into acid-precipitable protein supports this assumption.

2-Methylbutyrylglycine induces lipid oxidative damage and decreases the antioxidant defenses in rat brain.

TL;DR: The present data show that 2 MBG induces lipid oxidative damage and reduces the antioxidant defenses in rat brain, and it may be postulated that oxidative stress induced by 2MBG is involved, at least in part, in the pathophysiology of the brain damage found in SBCAD deficiency.
