The plant-derived α-linolenic acid (ALA) is an essential n-3 highly susceptible to oxidation, present in oils of flaxseeds, walnuts, canola, perilla, soy, and chia. After ingestion, it can be incorporated body lipid pools (particularly triglycerides phospholipid membranes), then endogenously metabolized through desaturation, elongation, peroxisome oxidation eicosapentaenoic (EPA) docosahexaenoic (DHA), with a very limited efficiency for DHA), beta-oxidized as energy source, or directly C18-oxilipins. At this moment, data the literature about effects ALA supplementation on metabolic syndrome (MetS) humans are inconsistent, indicating no some positive all MetS components (abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia, impaired insulin sensitivity glucoregulation, blood pressure, liver steatosis). major seem its conversion more potent EPA DHA, impact n-3/n-6 ratio, consecutive formation oxylipins endocannabinoids, inflammation, sensitivity, secretion, well adipocyte hepatocytes function.

Insulin resistance (IR) plays a crucial role in the development and progression of metabolism-related diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, tumors, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, provides basis for common understanding these chronic diseases. In this study, we provide systematic review causes, mechanisms, treatments IR. The pathogenesis IR depends on genetics, obesity, age, drug effects. Mechanistically, any factor leading to abnormalities insulin signaling pathway leads host, including receptor abnormalities, disturbances internal environment (regarding inflammation, hypoxia, lipotoxicity, immunity), metabolic function organelles, other abnormalities. available therapeutic strategies are mainly exercise dietary habit improvement, chemotherapy based biguanides glucagon-like peptide-1, traditional Chinese medicine (e.g., herbs acupuncture) can also be helpful.

The heme oxygenase (HO) enzyme system catabolizes to carbon monoxide (CO), ferrous iron, and biliverdin-IXα (BV), which is reduced bilirubin-IXα (BR) by biliverdin reductase (BVR). HO activity represented two distinct isozymes, the inducible form, HO-1, a constitutive HO-2, encoded genes (HMOX1, HMOX2, respectively). HO-1 responds transcriptional activation in response wide variety of chemical physical stimuli, including its natural substrate heme, oxidants, phytochemical antioxidants. expression regulated NF-E2-related factor-2 counter-regulated Bach-1, heme-sensitive manner.

The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is rising. NAFLD/nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) associated not only with hepatic morbidity and mortality but also an increased cardiovascular risk. NAFLD (CVD) share several risk factors, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease. This review summarizes the evidence linking cardiometabolic factors in context for CVD. cause NAFLD/NASH complex, involving a range from genetics to lifestyle energy balance. Genetically driven high fat content does appear be causally CVD In contrast, dysfunction predisposes pathology leads significantly higher Given that pathophysiology influenced by multiple each patient unique their developing pathology.

Steatotic liver disease (SLD) displays a dynamic and complex phenotype. Consequently, the metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic (MASLD)/metabolic steatohepatitis (MASH) therapeutic pipeline is expanding rapidly in multiple directions. In parallel, non-invasive tools for diagnosing monitoring responses to interventions are being studied, clinically feasible findings explored as primary outcomes interventional trials. The realization that distinct subgroups exist under umbrella of SLD should guide more precise personalized treatment recommendations facilitate advancements pharmacotherapeutics. This review summarizes recent updates pathophysiology-based nomenclature outlines both effective pharmacotherapeutics those MASLD/MASH, detailing their mode action current status phase 2 3 clinical Of extensive arsenal MASLD/MASH pipeline, several have been rejected, whereas other, mainly monotherapy options, shown only marginal benefits now tested part combination therapies, yet others still development monotherapies. Although successful drug candidate (or combinations) remains elusive, such approaches will ideally target MASH fibrosis while improving cardiometabolic risk factors. Due urgent need novel strategies potential availability safety tolerability data, repurposing existing approved drugs an appealing option. Finally, it essential highlight and, by extension, MASLD be recognized approached systemic affecting organs, with vigorous implementation interdisciplinary coordinated plans.
