Influence of vitamin K2 on lipid precursors of inflammation and fatty acids pathway activities in HepG2 cells

Vitamin K2 (VK2) is one of the two types of vitamin K present most in the human diet. VK2 seems to have a beneficial effect on inflammation related to type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of VK2 on lipid precursors of inflammation in lipid-overloaded human li...
