Therefore, this study examined the effects of exogenous phytosterol (PS) and OPS on growth parameters and lipid metabolism in rats. Rats were provided with AIN-76 basal diet, basal diet +0.5% PS, or basal diet +0.5% OPS. We found that the level of cholesterol and triacylglycerols in the liver was significantly lower in OPS-fed rats than in basal diet-fed rats. The ratio of Δ6 desaturation index (20:3(n-6) + 20:4(n-6))/18:2(n-6) in the plasma was significantly higher in the OPS-fed rats than in the PS-fed rats. Additionally, the proportion of arachidonic acid (20:4) in the liver was significantly higher in the OPS-fed group compared with the control group. The mRNA expression levels of Δ6 and Δ5 desaturases were significantly higher in OPS-fed rats than in basal diet-fed rats, but remained unchanged in PS-fed rats. Moreover, the protein level of Δ6 desaturase was significantly higher in both PS- and OPS-fed rats compared with basal diet-fed rats, while the protein level of Δ5 desaturase tended to be higher only in OPS-fed rats than in basal diet-fed rats. Thus, exogenous OPS, but not PS, altered fatty acid composition through the upregulation of mRNA and protein levels of fatty acid desaturation enzymes in the liver. This indicates that exogenous OPS, unlike PS, may modulate the production of eicosanoids from arachidonic acid, potentially promoting allergic reactions, inflammation, and atherosclerosis.</p>","PeriodicalId":18086,"journal":{"name":"Lipids","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144006683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Small-density LDL (sdLDL) showed no distinct difference between the two groups. Furthermore, the 10-year risks of ASCVD were slightly higher in highlanders than in lowlanders, although the difference was not statistically significant. Individuals with T2DM living at highland altitudes have higher LDL-C and LDL-P levels than those living in lowlands. No difference was observed in the sdLDL levels between the two populations.

Previous studies demonstrated the harmful effects of trans fatty acids (TFAs) on human health. However, the association between TFAs and sleep outcomes is still not well-established. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between plasma elaidic acid, a major TFA, and sleep complaints. The participants from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2009-2010) were included. The plasma concentration of elaidic acid (18:1n-9t) was determined using the gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method. The sleep outcome was defined based on the following questionnaire: \"Ever told the doctor had trouble sleeping?\" and \"Ever told by a doctor have a sleep disorder?\". Participants were classified as having sleep complaints if they ever told a doctor or been told by a doctor about trouble sleeping. The association between plasma elaidic acid and sleep complaints was investigated by multivariable logistic regressions, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and subgroup analysis. A total of 2068 participants were included, 561 of whom suffered from sleep complaints. The restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression analysis revealed a nonlinear (inverted L-shaped) relationship between plasma elaidic acid level and sleep complaints (p = 0.044), with an inflection point of 9.598 μmol/L. In the group with a low plasma elaidic acid level (≤9.598 μmol/L), there was a positive association between plasma elaidic acid level and the prevalence of sleep complaints (OR 1.28; 95% CI: 1.06-1.54, p = 0.01). When the plasma elaidic acid level was more than 9.598 μmol/L, the correlation was not statistically significant. Results were robust when analyses were stratified by sex, age, race, marital status, education level, family income, and BMI (all p for interaction >0.05). The results revealed a positive association between plasma elaidic acid and sleep complaints in US adults when plasma elaidic acid level ≤9.598 μmol. Given that the plasma TFA content has considerably declined in recent years, the detrimental impact of elaidic acid on sleep quality deserves more attention.</p>","PeriodicalId":18086,"journal":{"name":"Lipids","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143753477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bivariate regression of total diet 18-carbon n-3 and tissue FA profile was modeled with the random effect of experiment and the partial R² was calculated. Increasing 18C n-3 FA in the diet quadratically increased the log₁₀ concentration of all n-3 FA in breast tissue.

LFBE significantly inhibited lipid accumulation by decreasing the expression of adipogenesis-related transcription factors, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR-γ) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP-α) in differentiated 3 T3-L1 cells. The expression levels of adiponectin, acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC), and fatty acid synthase (FAS) were also suppressed in differentiated three T3-L1 cells.

Furthermore, the serum pro-inflammatory cytokines including CRP, IL-6, TNFα, and INFγ in HFD-induced obese rats were significantly decreased after LFBE administration. LFBE treatment also attenuated oxidative stress in HFD-induced obese rats by decreasing MDA production and restoring SOD and catalase enzymatic activity. Administration of LFBE could modulate gut microbiota imbalance by increasing the abundance of Lactobacillus and Ruminococcaceae UCG-014 and decreasing Prevotella-9 at the genus level and restoring intestinal barrier dysfunction in HFD-induced obesity rats.

We aimed to explore the possible association between cerebral Aβ deposition and the development of NAFLD and to investigate the effect of DHA combined with MCTs on delaying NAFLD progression and Aβ accumulation. To this end, 40 three-month-old APP/PS1 male mice were randomly assigned to 4 groups. The mice were fed a control diet, a DHA (2.91 g/kg) diet, an MCTs (100 g/kg) diet, or a DHA + MCTs diet for 8 months. Ten C57BL/6J mice were fed a control diet and used as the wild-type (WT) group. The results indicated that APP/PS1 mice exhibited NAFLD and cerebral Aβ accumulation. DHA combined with MCTs decreased blood and liver lipids, relieved hepatic steatosis and fat accumulation, and decreased the level of Aβ in the brain and serum. Moreover, DHA combined with MCTs significantly upregulated the levels of Aβ clearance-related proteins in the liver, modulated the expression of key hepatic lipid metabolism enzymes and upstream hepatic lipid metabolism factors. In conclusion, compared with wild-type mice, APP/PS1 mice may be more sensitive to changes in lipid metabolism due to the accumulation of Aβ.
