Fish oil omega-3 fatty acids partially prevent lipid-induced insulin resistance in human skeletal muscle without limiting acylcarnitine accumulation. Clinical Science, 127(5), 315-322. https://doi.org/10.1042/cs20140031

Acylcarnitine accumulation in skeletal muscle and plasma has been observed in numerous models of mitochondrial lipid overload and insulin resistance. Fish oil n3PUFA (omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids) are thought to protect against lipid-induced i...

Photoperiodic regulation of FGF21 production in the Siberian hamster (2014)
Journal Article
Samms, R. J., Fowler, M. J., Cooper, S., Emmerson, P., Coskun, T., Adams, A. C., …Ebling, F. J. (2014). Photoperiodic regulation of FGF21 production in the Siberian hamster. Hormones and Behavior, 66(1), 180-185. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yhbeh.2014.03.013

FGF21 is an endocrine member of the fibroblast growth factor superfamily that has been shown to play an important role in the physiological response to nutrient deprivation. Food restriction enhances hepatic FGF21 production, which serves to engage a... Read More about Photoperiodic regulation of FGF21 production in the Siberian hamster.
