Deregulation of Lipid Homeostasis: A Fa(c)t in the Development of Metabolic Diseases

Abstract: Lipids are important molecules for human health. The quantity and quality of fats consumed in the diet have important effects on the modulation of both the natural biosynthesis and degradation of lipids. There is an important number of lipid-failed associated metabolic diseases and an increasing number of studies suggesting that certain types of lipids might be beneficial to the treatment of many metabolic diseases. The aim of the present work is to expose an overview of de novo biosynthesis, storage, and degr… Show more

“…M1 macrophages and M2 macrophages are considered to preferentially trigger Th1-type and Th2-type responses ( 13 , 14 ), representing proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory polarization states, respectively. These classifications show that macrophages exist on a continuum, and macrophage phenotype can be better described as a series of grades over a wide range ( 15 ). Therefore, macrophages are further divided into M2a, M2b, M2c and M2d according to the molecules that lead to the activation of M2 macrophages and their gene expression profiles ( 16 ).…”

“…Their derivatives can act as important signaling molecules to regulate cellular function [ 2 ]. However, dysregulation of fatty acid and cholesterol metabolism can cause various metabolic diseases, i.e., obesity, fatty liver, atherosclerosis, neutral lipid storage disease (NLSD), and cholesterol storage disease (CESD) [ 3 , 4 ]. Increasing evidence shows that lipid alterations also accelerate neurodegenerative disease progression by promoting oligomerization of pathogenic proteins and brain inflammation [ 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Lipid metabolism plays a central role in maintaining the normal homeostasis of the human body. Aberration of lipid metabolism is a trigger for chronic diseases, including diabetes, neurological disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. Traditionally, screening among asymptomatic individuals for lipid disorders rests on consideration of age, gender, blood pressure, smoking status, and testing for cholesterol, triglycerides, and glucose levels in plasma.…”
