Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease/steatohepatitis (MASLD/MASH) is recognised as a metabolic disease characterised by excess intrahepatic lipid accumulation due to lipid overflow and synthesis, alongside impaired oxidation and/or export of these lipids. But where do these lipids come from? The main pathways related to hepatic lipid accumulation are lipogenesis and excess fatty acid transport to the liver (due to increased lipolysis, adipose tissue insulin resistance, as well as excess dietary fatty acid intake, in particular of saturated fatty acids). Not only triglycerides but also other lipids are secreted by the liver and are associated with a worse histological profile in MASH, as shown by lipidomics. Herein, we review the role of lipid metabolism in MASLD/MASH and discuss the impact of weight loss (diet, bariatric surgery, GLP-1RAs) or other pharmacological treatments (PPAR or THRβ agonists) on hepatic lipid metabolism, lipidomics, and the resolution of MASH.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with several mild metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance (IR), obesity, and dyslipidemia, as well as with some more severe ones, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cardiovascular disease. Clinically, mild metabolic complications of PCOS such as IR or lipid metabolism disorders are the predictors of these more severe ones. So far, there is no reliable single marker that enables defining metabolic risk in patients with PCOS.

Background: Peritoneal dissemination of ovarian cancer (OvCa) can be largely attributed to the formation of a metastatic microenvironment driven by tumoral exosomes. Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms through which exosomal annexin A2 (ANXA2) derived from OvCa cells induces an HPMC phenotypic shift in favour of peritoneal metastasis.
Methods: Immunohistochemistry and orthotopic and intraperitoneal OvCa xenograft mouse models were used to clarify the relationship between tumour ANXA2 expression and peritoneal metastasis.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia in clinical practice, and obesity serves as a significant risk factor for its development. The underlying mechanisms of obesity-related AF remain intricate and have yet to be fully elucidated. We have identified FPR2 as a potential hub gene involved in obesity-related AF through comprehensive analysis of four transcriptome datasets from AF patients and one transcriptome dataset from obese individuals, and its expression is up-regulated in both AF and obese individuals.

Background: Saliva contains a variety of biochemical compounds, including antioxidants, and serves as the body's first line of defense against oxidative stress caused by free radicals. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of dental treatments on salivary oxidative stress biomarkers in children aged 3-5 years with severe early childhood caries (S-ECC) compared to children without caries.
Method: This study was conducted on 20 children aged 3-5 years with severe early childhood caries (S-ECC) and 20 children without caries.
