Dietary Acid Load but Not Mediterranean Diet Adherence Score Is Associated With Metabolic and Cardiovascular Health State: A Population Observational Study From Northern Italy

Juana Maria Sanz et al.

Summary: Diet plays a crucial role in the development of chronic diseases. The Mediterranean diet has been shown to be beneficial for cardiometabolic health, while the Western diet has detrimental effects. This study found that dietary acid load is associated with metabolic and cardiovascular prognosis, and that assessing DAL using 24-hour dietary recalls may be a better predictor of cardiometabolic health compared to MDA evaluated using food frequency questionnaires.

Palmitic Acid, but Not Lauric Acid, Induces Metabolic Inflammation, Mitochondrial Fragmentation, and a Drop in Mitochondrial Membrane Potential in Human Primary Myotubes

Domenico Sergi et al.

Summary: The study revealed that compared to palmitic acid, lauric acid does not trigger inflammatory response and mitochondrial dysfunction, thus not inducing pathogenetic mechanisms linked with insulin resistance, making it a healthier choice of saturated fatty acid.

Adipose tissue inflammation and metabolic dysfunction in obesity

Tatsuo Kawai et al.

Summary: Chronic low-grade inflammation of adipose tissue is linked to metabolic disease and organ complications, mainly caused by the secretion of inflammatory substances by adipocytes and infiltration of immune cells. Despite being low-grade, this inflammation negatively impacts remote organ function and is considered a causative factor of obesity-related complications.

The Neuroinflammatory and Neurotoxic Potential of Palmitic Acid Is Mitigated by Oleic Acid in Microglial Cells and Microglial-Neuronal Co-cultures

Jimmy Beaulieu et al.

Summary: The study found that palmitic acid can induce neurotoxicity by modulating microglial inflammatory responses and directly targeting neuronal cells. Additionally, oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid, was shown to counteract inflammation and promote neuroprotection.

Plasma ceramides containing saturated fatty acids are associated with risk of type 2 diabetes

Amanda M. Fretts et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that different types of saturated fatty acids bound to sphingolipids may affect their biological activity. This study investigated the associations of various ceramide and sphingomyelin species with incident type 2 diabetes. The results suggest that higher levels of specific ceramide species (Cer-16, Cer-18, Cer-20, Cer-22) are associated with an increased risk of diabetes.

Anti-inflammatory effects of oleic acid and the anthocyanin keracyanin alone and in combination: effects on monocyte and macrophage responses and the NF-κB pathway

Aline B. Santamarina et al.

Summary: The recruitment and activation of monocytes and macrophages play crucial roles in both homeostasis and cardiometabolic diseases. Unsaturated fatty acids like oleic acid (OA) and antioxidants such as anthocyanins have been investigated for their anti-inflammatory effects. When used in combination, OA and anthocyanins show greater efficacy in reducing inflammation and modulating gene expression and protein concentrations related to inflammatory responses compared to when used alone.
