In addition to LOX - 1 mediated vascular inflammation, oxLDL / LOX -1 internalization triggers endothelial / vascular smooth
muscle cell dysfunction, apoptosis, cellular senescence, or osteoblastic differentiation.
Not exact matches
The main cause of this beta
cell dysfunction is the accumulation of fat inside your
muscle and liver (2 — 7).
Saturated fat causes more of those toxic breakdown products and mitochondrial
dysfunction, and increases oxidative stress, free radicals, and inflammation, establishing a vicious cycle of events in which saturated fat - induced free radicals cause
dysfunction in the little power plants within our
muscle cells, which causes an increase in free radical production and the impairment of insulin signaling.
For example, Dr. Greger discusses a» vicious cycle of events in which saturated fat induced free radicals causes
dysfunction in the little powerplants within our
muscle cells, which causes an increase in free production and impairment of insulin signaling.»
Their metabolites accumulate in
muscle and fat
cells, activate proinflammatory signalling cascades, cause mitochondrial
dysfunction, and interfere with insulin - stimulated glucose transport.
Hirabara SM, Curi R, Maechler P. Saturated fatty acid - induced insulin resistance is associated with mitochondrial
dysfunction in skeletal
muscle cells.
Endothelial
cell activation, vascular smooth
muscle dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammation, mechanisms which underlie heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension, are all variables which can precipitate or perpetuate immune imbalances in autoimmune disease.
Glutathione is a potent antioxidant, so its deficiency will further contribute to
dysfunction of the
muscle cell's mitochondria, therefore greatly impairing its energy supply.
Vascular endothelial
dysfunction promotes vasoconstriction and favors platelet aggregation, white blood
cell adhesion, and smooth
muscle cell proliferation.
