Resolvin D3 improves the impairment of insulin signaling in skeletal muscle and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease through AMPK/autophagy-associated attenuation of ER stress
Biochem Pharmacol. 2022 Aug 7:115203. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2022.115203. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTResolvin D3 (RD3), an endogenous lipid mediator derived from omega-3 fatty acids, has been documented to attenuate inflammation in various disease models. Although it has been reported that omega-3 fatty acids attenuate metabolic disorders, the roles of RD3 in insulin signaling in skeletal muscle and hepatic lipid metabolism remain unclear. In the current study, we examined the role of RD3 in skeletal muscle insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis using in vitro and in vivo obesity models. In mouse primary hepatocytes, RD3 ...

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids protect human hepatoma cells from developing steatosis through FFA4 (GPR120)

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids protect human hepatoma cells from developing steatosis through FFA4 (GPR120).
Abstract Protective effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease has been demonstrated. FFA4 (also known as GPR120; a G protein-coupled receptor) has been suggested to be a target of n-3 PUFA. FFA4 expression in hepatocytes has also been reported from liver biopsies in child fatty liver patients. In order to assess the functional role of FFA4 in hepatic steatosis, we used an in vitro model of liver X receptor (LXR)-mediated hepatocellular steatosis. FFA4 expression was confirmed in Hep3B and HepG2 human hepatoma cells. T0901317 (a specific LXR activator) induced lip...
