DSS-induced colitis is associated with adipose tissue dysfunction and disrupted hepatic lipid metabolism leading to hepatosteatosis and dyslipidemia in mice

Abstract Considering high prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), this study aimed to elucidate molecular mechanisms for how intestinal inflammatory conditions are causally linked to hepatic steatosis and dyslipidemia. Both younger...

Interestingly, they displayed phenotypes of hepatic fat accumulation and abnormal blood lipid profiles. This DSS-induced colitis-associated lipid metabolic dysfunction was due to overall disruption of metabolic processes including fatty acid oxidation, lipogenesis, lipolysis, reverse cholesterol transport, bile acid synthesis, and white adipose tissue browning and brown adipose tissue thermogenesis, most of which are mediated by key regulators of energy homeostasis such as FGF21, adiponectin, and irisin, via SIRT1/PGC-1α- and LXRα-dependent pathways.
