Out this week in #Cell_Metabolism: The work with the Metallo lab @salkinstitute.bsky.social showing that trans-fat promotes hepatic serine palmitoyltransferase flux (SPT), VLDL secretion, and #atherosclerosis. SPT inhibition reduces VLDL and atherosclerosis. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Altered sphingolipid biosynthetic flux and lipoprotein trafficking contribute to trans-fat-induced atherosclerosis
Dietary fat drives the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), particularly through circulating cholesterol and triglyceride-r…
