De novo lipogenesis (DNL) has been implicated in the development and progression of liver steatosis. Hepatic DNL is strongly influenced by dietary macronutrient composition with diets high in carbohydrate increasing DNL while diets high in fat decrease DNL. The enzymes in the core DNL pathway have been well characterized; however, less is known about other liver proteins that play accessory or regulatory roles.

Human genetic studies show that loss of function mutations in 17-Beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD17β13) are associated with protection from non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). As a result, therapies that reduce HSD17β13 are being pursued for the treatment of NASH. However, inconsistent effects on steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis pathogenesis have been reported in murine Hsd17b13 knockdown or knockout models.

Vitamin D is known to have a positive effect on bone health. Despite the greater frequency of vitamin D deficiency in African Americans (AA), they have a higher bone mineral density (BMD) compared to whites, demonstrating a disconnect between BMD and vitamin D levels in AA. Another intriguing relationship seen in AA is the triglyceride (TG) paradox, an unusual phenomenon in which a normal TG status is observed even when patients house conditions known to be characterized by high TG levels, such as Type II diabetes.

Adolescence is a period of development in which shifts in responses to glucocorticoids is well-documented. Obesity and metabolic syndrome are substantial health issues whose rates continue to rise in both adult and adolescent populations. Though many interacting factors contribute to these dysfunctions, how these shifts in glucocorticoid responses may be related remain unknown.
