Published: September 1987

The effects of corticosterone and ACTH(1-24) on lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity of rat epididymal fat tissue were studied. Hypercorticism induced by s.c. administration of 10 mg corticosterone acetate for 3 days led to a decrease in LPL activity. This decrease could be prevented by treatment of the rats simultaneously with synthetic ACTH(1-24). Adrenalectomy also reduced LPL activity. Corticosterone and ACTH(1-24) treatment had a similar effect on LPL activity in adrenalectomized and intact rats. These results indicate that ACTH(1-24) may affect adipose tissue LPL in the rat by a mechanism in which corticosterone is not involved.

Purpose: Genetic testing is required to confirm a diagnosis of familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS). We assessed the pathogenicity of variants identified in the FCS canonical genes to diagnose FCS cases.

Methods: 245 patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia underwent next-generation sequencing.

Graphical Abstract Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mediates peripheral tissue triglyceride (TG) uptake. Hepatic ANGPTL3 (A3) and ANGPTL8 (A8) form a complex and inhibit LPL activity in the white adipose tissue (WAT) via systematic circulation. ANGPTL4 (A4) is expressed in WAT and inhibits LPL activity locally.

Physical activity (PA), including sedentary behavior, is associated with many diseases, including Alzheimer's disease and all-cause dementia. However, the specific biological mechanisms through which PA protects against disease are not entirely understood. To address this knowledge gap, we first assessed the conventional observational associations of three self-reported and three device-based PA measures with circulating levels of 2,911 plasma proteins measured in the UK Biobank (n =39,160) and assessed functional enrichment of identified proteins.

The present study explored the possible antiobesogenic and osteoprotective properties of the gut metabolite ginsenoside CK to clarify its influence on lipid and atherosclerosis pathways, thereby validating previously published hypotheses. These hypotheses were validated by harvesting and cultivating 3T3-L1 and MC3T3-E1 in adipogenic and osteogenic media with varying concentrations of CK. We assessed the differentiation of adipocytes and osteoblasts in these cell lines by applying the most effective doses of CK that we initially selected.
