Article Title: Sodium sulphate ameliorates hypercholesterolemia via the upregulation of Cyp7a1 in hepatocytes and alleviates hepatic insulin resistance via the downregulation of Trib3 in mice with high cholesterol diets

doi: 10.3892/etm.2024.12650

Figure Lengend Snippet: Sodium sulphate ameliorates hypercholesterolemia and hepatic insulin resistance in mice fed an HCD. Sodium sulphate inhibits the highly expressed TRB3 in the hepatocytes of mice fed an HCD, to attenuate the hepatic insulin resistance of these mice. In the enterocytes of the ileum, FGF15 expression is downregulated following the administration of sodium sulphate to mice fed an HCD. In addition, the hepatic expression of KLB, which is the co-receptor of FGFR4 for FGF15 binding, is significantly downregulated by sodium sulphate, and reduces the activation of JNK, which is downstream of the FGF15/FGFR4-KLB signaling pathway. The activation of c-Jun, which is the major target of p-JNK, is notably reduced, and the expression of Cyp7a1 , which is inhibited by p-c-Jun, is significantly increased, which enhances the conversion of cholesterols to bile acids in these mice.

Article Title: Psoralen Suppresses Lipid Deposition by Alleviating Insulin Resistance and Promoting Autophagy in Oleate-Induced L02 Cells

doi: 10.3390/cells11071067

Figure Lengend Snippet: Psoralen alleviates insulin resistance in sodium oleate-induced L02 cells by enhancing the expression of GLUT4 and promoting the GLUT4 membrane translocation. L02 cells except the control group were induced with sodium oleate (100 μM) for 24 h to induce lipid deposition. Then, all cells were stimulated by insulin (10 μg/mL) for 30 min and then incubated with psoralen at 0, 0.37, 1.1, and 3.3 μM for 24 h. ( A ) The glucose content was measured by the glucose content assay kit. ( B ) The expression of GLUT4 and GLUT2 was detected by Western blotting. ( C ) The expression of INSR, p-INSR, IRS1, and p-IRS1 were measured by Western blotting. ( D ) The expression of GLUT4 and F-actin was detected by immunofluorescence and images captured by confocal microscopy (scale bar = 10 μm). ( E ) Colocalization efficiency of GLUT4 and F-actin in multiple cells ( n ≥ 3 cells) within the field of view was quantified by line scan analysis (160 pixels with two ends on the membrane) by observing the overlap of fluorescence intensity peaks along the spanning contour. ( F ) The expression of GLUT2 and F-actin was detected by immunofluorescence and images captured by confocal microscopy (scale bar = 10 μm). ( G ) Colocalization efficiency of GLUT2 and F-actin in multiple cells ( n ≥ 3 cells) within the field of view was quantified by line scan analysis (250 pixels with two ends on the membrane) by observing the overlap of fluorescence intensity peaks along spanning profiles. All values were expressed as the mean ± SD from three independent experiments. # p < 0.05, ## p < 0.01, vs. the control group; ** p < 0.01 vs. sodium oleate-induced group.
