Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Background & Aims: Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) such as palmitic acid are an important risk factor for the development of hepatic steatosis, lipotoxicity (hepatocellular death), and hepatocarcinogenesis. Major sources of hepatic SFAs are adipose tissue, de novo lipogenesis in the liver, and diet. Increases in SFA from adipose tissue and de novo lipogenesis have been reported in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), but changes in dietary SFA intestinal absorption are unclear. Thus, we aimed to clarify these changes and their role in NASH. Conclusion: Significantly upregulated absorption of dietary SFA was evident in the jejunum of e-NASH patients. This alteration in absorption of SFA would be associated with the increase of MTTP and FABPs in the jejunum, and resulted to the chylomicronemic response in e-NASH patients. Those change of SFA metabolism might relate to the onset or pathogenesis of the early stages of NASH.
