Prediction of non-alcoholic fatty-liver disease and liver fat content by serum molecular lipids

Abstract: Aims/hypothesisWe examined whether analysis of lipids by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled to MS allows the development of a laboratory test for non-alcoholic fatty-liver disease (NAFLD), and how a lipid-profile biomarker compares with the prediction of NAFLD and liver-fat content based on routinely available clinical and laboratory data.MethodsWe analysed the concentrations of molecular lipids by UPLC-MS in blood samples of 679 well-characterised individuals in whom liver-fat content was … Show more

“…Hierarchical cluster analysis also shows the good clustering between the ND and HFD groups with a significant negative association of PUFA TAGs with obesity. These results were consistent with several other models, as for examples SFA containing TAGs were decreased in diet induced weight loss model 29 and increased in serum of individuals with nonalcoholic fatty-liver disease (NAFLD) 33 . In contrast, PUFA containing TAGs were decreased by 40% in ob/ob mice 34 and negatively associated with NAFLD 33 .…”

“…Orešič et al [76] focused on UHPLC-MS analysis of lipids in blood samples of 679 well-characterized individuals in whom liver-fat content was measured using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy or liver biopsy. Individuals with non-alcoholic fatty-liver disease (NAFLD) had increased TGs with low carbon number and double-bond content while LPCs and ether PLs were diminished in those with NAFLD.…”

“…The increase of TGs with low carbon number and double bond count does appear to be specific to CD progression. These TGs are associated, in adults, with elevated liver fat in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) 58,59 , reflecting increased de novo lipogenesis and adipose tissue lipolysis. In fact, CD patients have, interestingly, been found to be at increased risk of NAFLD 60 .…”
