Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelenium Enriched Peanut Protein Alleviates Alcohol-Induced Liver Damage in Mice by Modulating the Composition of the Gut MicrobiotaLin Gao, Jiawei Yuan, Yuhuan Cheng et al.Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is one of leading external causes of mortality. Selenium-enriched Peanut Protein (SePP) is a type of Se compound present in Se-enriched plants. Our previous studies showed that SePP possesses potential therapeutic properties and could alleviate alcohol-induced AML-12 cytotoxicity. It spurred us to determine the underlying mechanisms and roles of SePP on gut microbiota. Here, ICR mice … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2021 · 6,234 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Nitrogen Source on the Lipid Accumulation in Phaeodactylum TricornutumXiaojie Ren, Qi Yan, Song Li et al.Nitrogen source has an important influence on the growth and lipid synthesis of Phaeodactylum tricornutum. It affects lipid accumulation through global metabolic regulation. However, little research has been done on the correlation between other metabolites and lipid metabolism during the synthesis of Phaeodactylum tricornutum. In this study, we studied the effect of different nitrogen sources on lipid and other major … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2020 · 6,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSex Dimorphism in the Fgf21 Gene Expression in Liver and Adipose Tissues is Dependent on the Metabolic ConditionNadezhda Bazhan, Tatiana Jakovleva, Natalia Balyibina et al.Fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) beneficially affects carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Previously, a sex-specific activation of Fgf21 expression was observed in humans and animals with metabolic diseases. It is unknown whether the sex differences in the Fgf21 expression are manifested in response to the natural physiological situations of fasting and refeeding. The aim of this work was to determine liver, White … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2019 · 8,158 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe HCV Replicase InteractomeAntonio Mas, Pilar Clemente-Casares, Eugenio Ramírez, Rosario SabariegosViruses are obligate parasites and can only reproduce within host cells because they lack metabolic pathways to complete their replication cycles. Host factors required in viral replication are mainly those involved in lipid metabolism, cell cycle control and apoptosis, cell-to-cell interactions, immune system regulation, etc. Several inhibitors targeting viral polymerases have been designed. However, the rapid appearance of resistant mutants, … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 27 Jul 2016 · 13,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConversion of Mutton Fat to Cocoa Butter Equivalent by Increasing the Unsaturated Fatty Acids at the Sn-2 Position of Triacylglycerol Through Fermentation by Yarrowia LipolyticaDan Xiong, Huaiyuan Zhang, Yifang Xie et al.Mutton fat has a similar fatty acid profile with Cocoa Butter (CB), except that its degree of unsaturation of Triacylglycerol (TAG) at the Sn-2 position is considerably lower than CB and maybe increased by Sn-2 specific lipase to produce Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE), a healthy functional lipid. However, there is no commercially available Sn-2 specific lipase that can be used … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2015 · 8,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Effect of Galactomannan Extracted from Iraqi Lycium barbarum L. Fruits against Alloxan-Induced Diabetes in RatsAdnan J.M. Al-FartosyLycium barbarum L. (Solanaceae) is widely used in Iraqi Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The present investigation was done to evaluate the effects of polysaccharide (galactomannan) from Lycium barbarum L. Fruits (GLBF) on serum blood glucose, serum lipid profile and lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defence system in liver and kidney of alloxan-induced diabetic rats. GLBF was found … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 Dec 2014 · 7,657 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANTIOBESITY EFFECTS OF HUMAN SOLUBLE LEPTIN IN MICE NOURISHED WITH A HIGH-FAT/HIGH FRUCTOSE DIETB. Chimal-Vega, N. Paniagua-Castro, J. C. Perez-Rebollar et al.Leptin is a hormone that regulates energy balance. Since its discovery two decades ago, several efforts have been made to fully understand its role in metabolic regulation of feeding behavior, reproduction, glucose homeostasis, immune function, bone formation, lipid metabolism, among others. Its use as a therapeutic option in obese patients is still limited due to the syndrome known as Leptin … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 9 Jul 2014 · 7,388 accessesView PDFCite
