Regulatory effects of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase on hepatic microsomal TG transfer protein activity and VLDL-triglyceride and apoB secretion in obese mice

As 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is an emerging target in obesity and insulin resistance, we have investigated whether this arachidonate pathway is also implicated in the progression of obesity-related fatty liver disease. Our results show that 5-LO activity and 5-LO-derived product levels are significantly...
