This document discusses fatty acid metabolism in humans. It notes that virtually all fatty acids originate from dietary triglycerides, with long-term storage occurring in adipose tissue. Upper body subcutaneous fat accounts for the majority of systemic free fatty acid release, though intra-abdominal fat correlates with higher delivery of free fatty acids to the liver. High levels of free fatty acids can lead to insulin resistance, increased triglycerides, and vascular abnormalities.
Why does your doctor recommend you to have more fruits, vegetables and cereals when you're having constipation? Why is it good to have fiber? Why are Cardio Vascular Diseases on a rise? This presentation tells it all and highlights how it is related to Dietary Fiber...
The presentation in detail covers the Glycemic index and glycemic load of various kinds of food. The standard calculation of Glycemic index and GLycemic load.
Moreover, it covers the food processing effects that can alter the glycemic load and glycemic index like gelatinization, retrogradation, cooking, annealing, etc.

3. Fatty Acid Metabolism in Humans
• Virtually all fatty acids originate from dietary
triglyceride fatty acids.
• Long-term storage site is adipose tissue.
• Regulated release of fatty acids as free fatty acids
provides the majority of lipid fuel for postabsorptive
adults.
9. Relationship Between Body Composition and Physiological
Consequences
• Body fat distribution and free fatty acids (FFA)
• Adipose tissue FFA release
• Effects of excess FFA on health
18. Body Fat Distribution and Free Fatty Acids
(FFA)
• Upper body obesity is associated with adverse metabolic consequences.
• Upper body obesity is associated with high basal and postprandial
FFA.
• Intra-abdominal (visceral) fat most strongly correlated with
metabolic abnormalities.
• Do the excess FFAs come from intra-abdominal fat?
19. Regional Adipose Tissue Model
Intra-abdominal
(visceral) fat
Lower body
subcutaneous fat
Upper body
subcutaneous fat
20. Summary
• Upper body subcutaneous fat accounted for the
majority of systemic free fatty acid (FFA) release.
• Intra-abdominal (visceral) fat mass correlated with
but was not the source of most systemic FFA release.
• Intra-abdominal fat mass predicts greater delivery of
FFA to the liver from intra-abdominal lipolysis.
• A greater portion of free fatty acid (FFA) appearance
derives from leg and splanchnic adipose tissue in
obese than lean men and women.
21. Cont….
• Nevertheless, the majority of systemic FFAs originate from upper
body subcutaneous fat in obese men and women.
• Intra-abdominal (visceral) fat correlates positively with the
proportion of hepatic FFA delivery from intra-abdominal fat in
both men and women.
• Upper body obesity is associated with high free fatty acids (FFA)
due to excess release from upper body subcutaneous fat.
• High FFA can result in:
• insulin resistance in muscle and liver
• VLDL TG
• insulin secretion (?diabetes)
• Vascular abnormalities
22. Conclusions
• In both men and women, greater amounts of intra-abdominal
(visceral) fat result in a greater
proportion of hepatic free fatty acid (FFA) delivery
originating from intra-abdominal adipose tissue
lipolysis in the overnight postabsorptive state.
• This implies that arterial FFA concentrations will
underestimate hepatic FFA delivery systematically
and progressively with greater degrees of intra-abdominal
adiposity.
23. Cont…
• Fat is a dynamic and varied tissue.
• Regional differences in adipose biology affect
health.
• The causes of differences in body fat
distribution are unknown.
• The relative contributions of high free fatty
acids and adipokines to adverse health is
unknown.
25. INTRODUCTION
• Hyperlipidemia Hyperlipoproteinemia means abnormally
increased plasma lipoproteins-one of the risk factors for
atherosclerosis (deposition of fats at walls of arteries, forming
plaque)
• Other risk factors-Cigarette smoking, Diabetes, another source of
oxidative stress. Also, obesity and, hypertension.
• Hyperlipemia denotes increased
levels of triglycerides.
• Such abnormality is extremely
common in general population,
regarded as highly modifiable
risk factor for cardio vascular
diseases, due to influence of
cholesterol.
26. Plasma lipids include: cholesterols, triglycerides and phospholipids.
Lipids are insoluble in plasma and are transported in protein capsule
known as LIPOPROTEIN
27. Types of lipoproteins
1. Chylomicrons (TGs): → formed in GIT from dietary
TG.
2. VLDL (TGs and cholesterol) → endogenously
synthesized in liver. Degraded by LPL into free fatty
acids (FFA) for storage in adipose tissue and for
oxidation in tissues such as cardiac and skeletal
muscle.
3. IDL (TGs, cholesterol); and LDL (cholesterol) →
derived from VLDL hydrolysis by lipoprotein lipase.
Normally, about 70% of LDL is removed from plasma
by hepatocytes.
4. HDL (protective) →exert several anti atherogenic
effects. They participate in retrieval of cholesterol
from the artery wall and inhibit the oxidation of
atherogenic lipoproteins& removes cholesterol from
tissues to be degraded in liver.
Composition Density Size
Chylomicrons TG >> C, CE Low Large
VLDL TG > CE
IDL CE > TG
LDL CE >> TG
HDL CE > TG High Small
29. Dietary sources of Cholesterol
Type of Fat Main Source Effect on
Cholesterol levels
Monounsaturated Olives, olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil,
cashews, almonds, peanuts and most
other nuts; avocados
Lowers LDL, Raises
HDL
Polyunsaturated Corn, soybean, safflower and cottonseed
oil; fish
Lowers LDL, Raises
HDL
Saturated Whole milk, butter, cheese, and ice cream;
red meat; chocolate; coconuts, coconut
milk, coconut oil , egg yolks, chicken skin
Raises both LDL and
HDL
Trans Most margarines; vegetable shortening;
partially hydrogenated vegetable oil; deep-fried
chips; many fast foods; most
commercial baked goods
Raises LDL
30. Hereditary Causes of Hyperlipidemia
• Familial Hypercholesterolemia
• Codominant genetic disorder, Occurs in heterozygous form
• Occurs in 1 in 500 individuals
• Mutation in LDL receptor, resulting in elevated levels of LDL at birth and
throughout life
• High risk for atherosclerosis, tendon xanthomas (75% of patients), tuberous
xanthomas and xanthelasmas of eyes.
• Familial Combined Hyperlipidemia
• Autosomal dominant
• Increased secretions of VLDLs
• Dysbetalipoproteinemia
• Affects 1 in 10,000
• Results in apo E2, a binding-defective form of apoE (which usually plays
important role in catabolism of chylomicron and VLDL)
• Increased risk for atherosclerosis, peripheral vascular disease
• Tuberous xanthomas, striae palmaris
31.
32. Types of Hyperlipidemia
FRERICKSON CLASSIFICATION- based on the pattern of
lipoprotein on electrophoresis or ultracentrifugation.
• Primary Chylomicronemia (I): Chylomicrons are not present in the
serum of normal individuals who have fasted 10 hours. The recessive
traits of deficiency of lipoprotein lipase or its cofactor are usually
associated with severe lipemia.
• Familial Hypercholesterolemia (IIA): Familial hypercholesterolemia is
an autosomal dominant trait. Although levels of LDL tend to increase
with normal VLDL.
• Familial Combined (mixed) Hyperlipoproteinemia (IIB):
elevated levels of VLDL, LDL.
• Familial Dysbetalipoproteinemia (III): Increased IDL resulting
increased TG and cholesterol levels.
• Familial Hypertriglyceridemia (VI): Increase VLDL production with
normal or decreased LDL.
• Familial mixed hypertriglyceridemia (V): Serum VLDL and
chylomicrons are increased
33. Diagnosis of hyperlipidemia
• Diagnosis is typically based on medical history, physical
examination and blood test done after overnight fasting.
34. Management of Hyperlipidemias
I- Diet:
• Avoid saturated fatty acids (animal fats) and give
unsaturated fatty acids (plant fats).
• - Regular consumption of fish oil which contains omega
3 fatty acids and vitamins E and C (antioxidants).
II. Exercise:
• - ↑ HDL and insulin sensitivity.
III- Drug therapy: the primary goal of therapy is to
decrease levels of LDL . Also,increase in HDL is
recommended.
