ANTI-HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA (HEPG2) ACTIVITIES OF MONOTERPENE HYDROXY LACTONES ISOLATED FROM THE MARINE MICROALGA TISOCHRYSIS LUTEA

Anti-Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HepG2) Activities of Monoterpene Hydroxy Lactones Isolated from the Marine Microalga Tisochrysis Lutea

Tisochrysis lutea is a marine haptophyte rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (e.g., docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)) and carotenoids (e.g., fucoxanthin).Because of the nutraceutical applications of these compounds, this microalga is being used in aquaculture to feed oyster and shrimp larvae.In our earlier report, T.lutea organic crude extracts e

The IGF2 mRNA binding protein p62/IGF2BP2-2 induces fatty acid elongation as a critical feature of steatosis[S]

Liver-specific overexpression of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) mRNA binding protein p62/IGF2BP2-2 induces a fatty liver, which highly expresses IGF2.Because IGF2 expression is elevated in patients with steatohepatitis, the aim of our study Intermediate was to elucidate the role and interconnection of p62 and IGF2 in lipid metabolism.Expre
