Abstract
Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids for Treatment of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: A Possible Case for Personalized Therapy
Highlights
One interesting finding was the observed changes in lysophospholipids, revealing significant changes in oleic, linoleic, and arachidonic acid but not DHA-containing lyso-PLs
The authors conclude that DHA likely attenuated MUFA synthesis by decreasing fatty acid synthase (FASN), ATP-citrate lyase (ACL) and SCD1 expression
Their results suggest that DHA-containing diets regulate hepatic 16:0, 18:1,n-7, and 18:1,n-9 content by controlling multiple genes involved in DNL and MUFA synthesis as well as the availability of substrates required for DNL
Summary
One interesting finding was the observed changes in lysophospholipids (lyso-PLs), revealing significant changes in oleic, linoleic, and arachidonic acid but not DHA-containing lyso-PLs. Changes in hepatic content of these metabolites were associated with a corresponding decline in the NASH gene expression markers (i.e., MCP1, CD68, ProCOL1A1, NOX2, SCD1 and TLR4). The authors conclude that DHA likely attenuated MUFA synthesis by decreasing fatty acid synthase (FASN), ATP-citrate lyase (ACL) and SCD1 expression.
