Some algal species contain up to 40 percent lipids by weight, which can be converted into biodiesel or synthetic petroleum. Some estimates state that algae and cyanobacteria could yield between 10 and 100 times more fuel per unit area than second-generation biofuels. Other biofuels include methane...
- 《Lipids》 被引量: 104发表: 1980年 Increased dietary fat contributes to dysregulation of the LKB1/AMPK pathway and increased damage in a mouse model of early-stage ethanol-mediated steatosis The objective of the study was to examine the interaction of moderate and high dietary fat and ...
Modulation of autophagy affects the level of ethanol-induced lipids. (A and B) AML12 cells were simultaneously incubated with ethanol and 3-MA for 24 hours. Cells were then harvested and analyzed for intracellular levels of TG (A) and cholesterol (B). (C–E) AML12 cells were transfected...
Increase in Hepatic Lipids after Ethanol Feeding To determine the effect of ethanol on SREBP in vivo, we first established the effects of ethanol feeding of mice using the usual liquid diet pair feeding protocol. The mice were fed a low fat, high carbohydrate diet (4% safflower oil, 6% coco...
of ROS produces oxidative stress disturbances, which are manifested by a rise in the amount of TBARS and nitrite associated with a decrease in GSH. There is a strong relationship between oxidative stress and ethanol-induced gastric ulcers. Subsequently, reactive oxygen species react with lipids to ...
Adipogenesis is a cellular differentiation process in which the preadipocytes are transformed into differentiated adipocytes [31] and accumulate lipids [33]. Therefore, controlling adipocyte differentiation is important. AMPK agonists and PPARγ antagonists appear to be involved in adipocyte differentiation ...
Humans can metabolize ethanol to produce energy. Ethanol is quite caloric, with 7 calories per gram, compared to 9 calories per gram for lipids and 4 calories per gram for both carbohydrates and protein. But alcohol is not an essential nutrient. It is also not stored by the body. This mea...
which is the most likely explanation for the effect of ethanol as a skin penetration enhancer. Kai et al. [83] and van der Merwe et al. [84] confirmed those results. Goates et al. [85] additionally remarked that enhanced permeation may be caused not only by extraction of lipids but als...
The other brain lipids, including arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, were not modified. These changes were associated with a significant increase in deleted mtDNA (by 28%) in the ethanol group, without total mtDNA depletion. The ACN-rich diet prevented the ...
