Abstract
Background: Interesterification is an industrial processing technique used widely where hard fats are essential for functionality and consumer acceptability, e.g. margarines and lower fat spreads. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare acute cardiovascular effects of functionally equivalent spreads (similar solid fat content) made with interesterified (IE) or non-IE palm-based fats, or spreadable butter. Methods: A randomised, controlled, 4-armed crossover, double-blind study (25 men, 25 women; 35-75 years; healthy; mean BMI 24.5, SD 3.8), compared effects of mixed nutrient meals containing 50 g fat from functionally equivalent products [IE spread, non-IE spread and spreadable butter (SB), with rapeseed oil (RO) as a reference treatment: with 16.7%, 27.9%, 19.3% and 4% palmitic acid, respectively] on 8 h postprandial changes in plasma triacylglycerol (TAG) and endothelial dysfunction (flow-mediated dilatation; FMD). Circulating reactive oxygen species (estimated using a neutrophil oxidative burst assay), glucose, insulin, NEFA, lipoprotein particle profiles, inflammatory markers (glycoprotein acetylation (Glyc-A) and IL-6), and biomarkers of endotoxemia were measured. Results: Postprandial plasma TAG concentrations after test meals were similar. However following RO versus the 3 spreads, there were significantly higher postprandial apolipoprotein B concentrations, and small HDL and LDL particle concentrations, and lower postprandial extra-large, large, and medium HDL particle concentrations, as well as smaller average HDL and LDL particle sizes. There were no differences following IE compared to the other spreads. Postprandial FMD% did not decrease after high-fat test meals, and there were no differences between treatments. Postprandial serum IL-6 increased similarly after test meals, but RO provoked a greater increase in postprandial concentrations of glycoprotein acetyls (GlycA), as well as 8 h sCD14, an endotoxemia marker. All other postprandial outcomes were not different between treatments. Conclusions: In healthy adults, a commercially-available IE-based spread did not evoke a different postprandial triacylglycerol, lipoprotein subclass, oxidative stress, inflammatory or endotoxemic response to functionally-equivalent, but compositionally-distinct alternative spreads. Clinical trial registry number: NCT03438084 (https://ClinicalTrials.gov).

Abstract
White adipose tissue and brown adipose tissue (WAT and BAT) regulate fatty acid metabolism and control lipid fluxes to other organs. Dysfunction of these key metabolic processes contributes to organ insulin resistance and inflammation leading to chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, and cardiovascular diseases. Metabolic tracers combined with molecular imaging methods are powerful tools for the investigation of these pathogenic mechanisms. Herein, I review some of the positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging methods combined with stable isotopic metabolic tracers to investigate fatty acid and energy metabolism, focusing on human WAT and BAT metabolism. I will discuss the complementary strengths offered by these methods for human investigations and current gaps in the field.

Abstract
Adipocyte hypertrophy is associated with metabolic complications independent of obesity. We aimed to determine: 1) the association between adipocyte size and postprandial fatty acid metabolism; 2) the potential mechanisms driving the obesity-independent, hypertrophy-associated dysmetabolism in vivo and at a single-cell resolution. Tracers with positron emission tomography were used to measure fatty acid metabolism in 40 men and women with normal or impaired glucose tolerance (NCT02808182), and single nuclei RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) to determine transcriptional dynamics of subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT) between individuals with AT hypertrophy vs. hyperplasia matched for sex, ethnicity, glucose-tolerance status, BMI, total and percent body fat, and waist circumference. Adipocyte size was associated with high postprandial total cardiac fatty acid uptake and higher visceral AT dietary fatty acid uptake, but lower lean tissue dietary fatty acid uptake. We found major shifts in cell transcriptomal dynamics with AT hypertrophy that were consistent with in vivo metabolic changes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Protein-bound uraemic toxins (PBUTs) are poorly removed by conventional dialytic techniques, given their high plasma protein binding, and thus low, free (dialysable) plasma concentration. Here, we evaluated and compared PBUTs removal among conventional haemodialysis (HD), adsorption-based HD, displacement-based HD, and their 2 combinations both in vitro and in vivo. METHODS The removal of PBUTs, including 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furan-propanoic acid (CMPF), p-cresyl sulphate (PCS), indoxyl sulphate (IS), indole-3-acetic acid (3-IAA), and hippuric acid, was first evaluated in an in vitro single-pass HD model. Adsorption consisted of adding 40 g/L bovine serum albumin (Alb) to the dialysate and displacement involved infusing fatty acid (FA) mixtures predialyser. Then, uraemic rats were treated with either conventional HD, Alb-based HD, lipid emulsion infusion-based HD or their combination to calculate the reduction ratio (RR), and the total solute removal (TSR) of solutes after 4 h of therapy. RESULTS In vitro dialysis revealed that FAs infusion prefilter increased the removal of PCS, IS, and 3-IAA 3.23-fold, 3.01-fold, and 2.24-fold, respectively, compared with baseline and increased the fractional removal of CMPF from undetectable at baseline to 14.33 ± 0.24%, with a dialysis efficacy markedly superior to Alb dialysis. In vivo dialysis showed that ω-6 soybean oil-based lipid emulsion administration resulted in higher RRs and more TSRs for PCS, IS, and 3-IAA after 4-h HD than the control, and the corresponding TSR values for PCS and IS were also significantly increased compared to that of Alb dialysis. Finally, the highest dialysis efficacy for highly bound solute removal was always observed with their combination both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS The concept of combined displacement- and adsorption-based dialysis may open up new avenues and possibilities in the field of dialysis to further enhance PBUTs removal in end-stage renal disease.

Abstract
Insulin inhibits systemic nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) flux to a greater degree than glucose or any other metabolite. This remarkable effect is mainly due to insulin-mediated inhibition of intracellular triglyceride (TG) lipolysis in adipose tissues and is essential to prevent diabetic ketoacidosis, but also to limit the potential lipotoxic effects of NEFA in lean tissues that contribute to the development of diabetes complications. Insulin also regulates adipose tissue fatty acid esterification, glycerol and TG synthesis, lipogenesis, and possibly oxidation, contributing to the trapping of dietary fatty acids in the postprandial state. Excess NEFA flux at a given insulin level has been used to define in vivo adipose tissue insulin resistance. Adipose tissue insulin resistance defined in this fashion has been associated with several dysmetabolic features and complications of diabetes, but the mechanistic significance of this concept is not fully understood. This review focusses on the in vivo regulation of adipose tissue fatty acid metabolism by insulin and the mechanistic significance of the current definition of adipose tissue insulin resistance. One hundred years after the discovery of insulin and despite decades of investigations, much is still to be understood about the multifaceted in vivo actions of this hormone on adipose tissue fatty acid metabolism.

Abstract
We found that direct free fatty acid (FFA) storage (fatty acid cycling back into adipose tissue) in leg vs. abdominal subcutaneous fat is related to regional differences in adipose tissue diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) activity under high-FFA conditions and to differences in adipose tissue acyl-CoA synthetase (ACS)activity under meal ingestion conditions. We also found that direct FFA storage rates in leg fat were significantly less in physically active than sedentary adults. Direct FFA storage into adipocytes relates to body fat distribution. Adipose tissue CD36, ACS, and DGAT may account for some of the between-depot and interindividual variability in FFA storage. These studies were to test whether CD36, ACS, or DGAT might be important for direct palmitate storage under meal ingestion or high-FFA conditions. We measured upper (UBSQ) and lower body subcutaneous (LBSQ) adipose tissue FFA storage rates by infusing palmitate tracers intravenously and performing adipose biopsies under hypoinsulinemic (high-FFA) and mixed-meal conditions. We recruited five postmenopausal women, physically active males (5) and females (5), and sedentary males (5) and females (5). We found that 1) the ratio of UBSQ to LBSQ DGAT activity predicted the ratio of palmitate storage [adjusted R = 0.25, F = 8.0, P = 0.01, 95% CI (0.07, 0.48)] under high-FFA conditions; 2) the ratio of UBSQ to LBSQ ACS activity predicted the ratio of palmitate storage under meal conditions [adjusted R = 0.18, F = 6.3, P = 0.02, 95% CI (0.12, 1.28)]; 3) LBSQ direct palmitate storage rates were significantly less in physically active than sedentary and 4) adipose tissue CD36 protein content, ACS, or DGAT activities did not independently predict palmitate storage rates. We conclude that physically active adults have lesser fatty acid cycling back into adipose tissue and that adipose ACS and DGAT may affect competition between UBSQ and LBSQ adipose for direct palmitate storage.

Abstract
Palmitoleic acid has been classified as an insulin-sensitizing lipokine, but evidence for this from human studies has been inconsistent. We hypothesized that this is related to either the types of samples or conditions under which samples are collected. We measured plasma palmitoleic acid and total free fatty acids (FFA) using ultra-performance liquid chromatography in blood samples collected from 34 adults under a variety of conditions. We collected duplicate samples of adipose (n = 10), FFA (n = 9), and very low density lipoprotein triacylglycerol (VLDL-TAG) (n = 7) to measure the palmitoleic acid as a percentage of total fatty acids. We tested whether the percentage of palmitoleic acid was correlated with insulin resistance, as measured by homeostatic model of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Adipose stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase 1 (SCD-1) protein was measured by capillary Western blotting. FFA-palmitoleic acid percentage increased as a function of total FFA and was greater (p < 0.005) in females than males. Adipose palmitoleic acid percentage was greater in females than males (p < 0.001), as was adipose SCD-1. Palmitoleic acid was greater in femoral fat than in abdominal fat in both females and males (p < 0.001), and correlated positively with HOMA-IR only in females. The test-retest reliability values for percentage palmitoleic acid were 7 ± 10% for adipose, 24 ± 26% for VLDL, and 53 ± 31% for FFA. Because FFA-palmitoleic acid percentage varies as a function of total FFA, investigators should re-evaluate how palmitoleic acid data is presented. The positive relationship between adipose palmitoleic acid and HOMA-IR in females suggests that it is not a potent insulin-sensitizing lipokine in humans.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-fat diets increase risk for Alzheimer's disease, but individuals with the risk gene APOE ε4 (E4) paradoxically have improved memory soon after high fat feeding. Little is known about how dietary lipids affect CNS lipids, especially in older adults. OBJECTIVES We analyzed the lipidomic signature of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in older adults who underwent both a saline and TG infusion. We further analyzed these data by E4 carrier status. METHODS Older adults (n = 21, age 67.7 ± 8.6) underwent a 5-h TG and saline infusion on different days in random crossover design; lumbar CSF was collected at the end of the infusion. Lipids were extracted using dichloromethane/methanol and 13 classes of lipids analyzed using the Lipidyzer platform consisting of an AB Sciex 5500 MS/MS QTraps system equipped with a SelexION for differential mobility spectrometry (DMS). Multiple reaction monitoring was used to target and quantify 1070 lipids in positive and negative ionization modes with and without DMS. RESULTS The TG infusion increased total lipids in the CSF, including the appearance of more lipids at the detection limit in the TG samples compared to saline (Chi square p < 0.0001). The infusion increased the total level of diacylglycerols and lysophosphatidylcholines and reduced dihydroceramides. Of the possible 1070 lipids detectable, we found 348 after saline and 365 after TG infusion. Analysis using MetaboAnalyst revealed 11 specific lipids that changed; five of these lipids decreased after TG infusion, and four of them differed by E4 status, but none differed by cognitive diagnosis or sex. CONCLUSION These results in older adults show that blood lipids affect lipid profiles in CSF and such profiles are modified by APOE status. This suggests that how the CNS handles lipids may be important in the AD phenotype.

Abstract
Context and Objectives Spillover of fatty acids (FAs) into the plasma nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) pool, because of an inability of adipose tissue (AT) to accommodate sufficient fat uptake, has been suggested to contribute to obesity-related insulin resistance. Using specific labeling techniques, we compared the proportion of spillover-derived NEFA across a range of adiposity. Participants and Methods Seventy-one healthy men and women were fed a mixed meal (40 g fat) containing [U13C]palmitate to assess the contribution of chylomicron-derived spillover FAs. To investigate subcutaneous abdominal-specific spillover, arteriovenous difference and stable-isotope methodologies were used in substudy (six men, six women). Results Chylomicron-derived FA spillover was higher in individuals with a BMI <25 kg/m2 (n = 18) compared with those with a BMI ≥25 kg/m2 (n = 53) (22.2 ± 1.6% vs 18.6 ± 0.7%, P = 0.02). Women had higher chylomicron-derived FA spillover than age- and BMI-matched men (21.9 ± 1.1% vs 15.0 ± 1.6%, P = 0.001). Assessing spillover across subcutaneous abdominal AT showed higher proportions in women than in men (28.5 ± 6.1% vs 9.9 ± 1.3%, P = 0.01). Conclusion There is a considerable degree of spillover FA into the systemic NEFA pool in the postprandial state; this process is greater and more dynamic in lean individuals and women. Contrary to general perception, spillover of chylomicron-derived FA into systemic circulation is a physiologically normal feature most easily observed in people with a higher capacity for clearance of plasma triglycerides, but does not appear to be a pathway providing excess NEFA in obesity.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Abdominal obesity is associated with a number of important metabolic abnormalities including liver steatosis, insulin resistance and an atherogenic lipoprotein profile (termed dyslipidemia). The purpose of this review is to highlight recent progress in understanding the pathogenesis of this dyslipidemia. RECENT FINDINGS Recent results from kinetic studies using stable isotopes indicate that the hypertriglyceridemia associated with abdominal obesity stems from dual mechanisms: (1) enhanced secretion of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and (2) impaired clearance of these lipoproteins. The over-secretion of large triglyceride-rich VLDLs from the liver is linked to hepatic steatosis and increased visceral adiposity. The impaired clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins is linked to increased levels of apolipoprotein C-III, a key regulator of triglyceride metabolism. SUMMARY Elucidation of the pathogenesis of the atherogenic dyslipidemia in abdominal obesity combined with the development of novel treatments based on apolipoprotein C-III may in the future lead to better prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the atherogenic dyslipidemia in abdominal obesity.

Abstract
Previous rodent studies showed that when injected into the brain, free fatty acids (FFAs) reduced food intake in an oleate-specific manner. The present study was performed to test whether food intake is regulated by circulating FFAs in an oleate-specific manner. Male Wistar rats received an intravenous infusion of olive, safflower, or coconut oil (100mg/h), together with heparin, to raise circulating oleate, linoleate, or palmitate, respectively, and their effects on overnight food intake were evaluated. Compared to other oils, olive oil infusion showed a significantly greater effect to reduce food intake (P<0.01). Total caloric intake, the sum of the calories from the diet and infused oil, was significantly reduced with olive oil (P<0.01) but not with coconut or safflower oil infusion, suggesting an oleate-specific effect on caloric intake. To further test this idea, different groups of rats received an intravenous infusion of oleate, linoleate, or octanoate (0.5mg/h). Oleate infusion decreased overnight food intake by 26% (P<0.001), but no significant effect was seen with linoleate, octanoate, or vehicle infusion (P>0.05). The effects of olive oil or oleate infusion could not be explained by changes in plasma glucose, insulin, leptin, or total FFA levels. The olive oil effect on food intake was not reduced in vagotomized rats, suggesting that oleate sensing may not involve peripheral sensors. In contrast, olive oil's effect was attenuated in high-fat-fed rats, suggesting that this effect is regulated (or impaired) under physiological (or pathological) conditions. Taken together, the present study provides evidence that circulating oleate is sensed by the brain differentially from other FFAs to control feeding in rats.

Abstract
Overconsumption of dietary fat contributes to the development of obesity and metabolic syndrome. Recent evidence suggests that high dietary fat may promote these metabolic states not only by providing calories but also by inducing impaired control of energy balance. In normal metabolic states, fat interacts with various organs or receptors to generate signals for the regulation of energy balance. Many of these interactions are impaired by high-fat diets or in obesity, contributing to the development or maintenance of obesity. These impairments may arise largely from fundamental alterations in the hypothalamus where all peripheral signals are integrated to regulate energy balance. This review focuses on various mechanisms by which fat is sensed at different stages of ingestion, circulation, storage, and utilization to regulate food intake, and how these individual mechanisms are altered by high-fat diets or in obesity.

Abstract
CONTEXT A portion of free fatty acids (FFA) released from adipose tissue lipolysis are re-stored in adipocytes via direct uptake. Rates of direct adipose tissue FFA storage are much greater in women than men, but women also have greater systemic FFA flux and more body fat. OBJECTIVE We tested the hypotheses that experimental increases in FFA in men would equalize the rates of direct adipose tissue FFA storage in men and women. DESIGN We used a lipid emulsion infusion to raise FFA in men to levels seen in post-absorptive women. Direct FFA storage (μmol · kg fat(-1) · min(-1)) rates in abdominal and femoral fat was assessed using stable isotope tracer infusions to measure FFA disappearance rates and an iv FFA radiotracer bolus/timed biopsy. SETTING These studies were performed in a Clinical Research Center. PARTICIPANTS Data from 13 non-obese women was compared with that from eight obese and eight non-obese men. INTERVENTION The men received a lipid emulsion infusion to raise FFA. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We measured the rates of direct FFA storage in abdominal and femoral adipose tissue. RESULTS The three groups were similar in age and FFA flux by design; obese men had similar body fat percentage as non-obese women. Despite matching for FFA concentrations and flux, FFA storage per kg abdominal (P < .01) and femoral (P < .001) fat was less in both lean and obese men than in non-obese women. Abdominal FFA storage rates were correlated with proteins/enzymes in the FFA uptake/triglyceride synthesis pathway in men. CONCLUSION The lesser rates of direct FFA adipose tissue in men compared with women cannot be explained by reduced FFA availability.

Abstract
On the basis of phylogenetic theory of general pathology, the cause of a noninfectious disease whose occurrence in a population is more than 5–7% is an impaired biological function or reaction to the environment. From the general biology viewpoint, high mortality rate related to cardio-vascular diseases and atherosclerosis (intercellular deficiency of polyenic fatty acids (PFA)) is just extinction of the Homo sapiens population upon adaptation to new environmental factors. The biological function of throphology (feeding) and biological reaction of exotrophy (external feeding) are impaired in several aspects, the major of which is nonphysiologically high dietary content of saturated fatty acids, primarily, of palmitic fatty acid (FA). The lipoprotein system formed at early stages of phylogenesis cannot transport and provide physiological deposition of great amounts of palmitic FA, which leads to the development of an adaption (compensatory) and accumulation disease. This results in hypermipidemia, impaired bioavailability of PFA to cells, compesatory production of humoral mediators from ω-9 eicosatrienoic mead FA, disorders in physiological parameters of cell plasma membrane and integral proteins, nonphysiological conformation of apoВ-100 in lipoproteins, formation of ligandless lipoproteins (biological litter) and impairments in the biological function of endoecology, utilization of ligandless lipoproteins in arterial intima by phylogenetically early macrophages that do not hydrolyze polyenic cholesterol esters, increase in the intensity of the biological reaction of inflammation, and destructive and inflammatory lesions in arterial intima of an atheromatosis or atherothrombosis type. Atheromatous masses are catabolites of PFA which were not internalized by phylogenetically late cells via receptor-mediated pathway.
