LOSS OF MONOACYLGLYCEROL O-ACYLTRANSFERASE 2 CAN BE COMPENSATED FOR BY DIACYLGLYCEROL O-ACYLTRANSFERASES 1 AND 2 RESULTING IN A NEGLIGIBLE INFLUENCE ON MAMMARY CANCER DEVELOPMENT FOUND IN A MOUSE MODEL AND VERIFIED IN HUMAN TISSUES

Loss of monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 can be compensated for by diacylglycerol O-acyltransferases 1 and 2 resulting in a negligible influence on mammary cancer development found in a mouse model and verified in human tissues

Background: Dietary fat absorption involves the re-esterification of digested triacylglycerol in the enterocytes, it is a biological process catalyzed by monoacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 (MOGAT2, aka MGAT2), which is highly expressed in the small intestine.A previous study showed that the loss of the Mogat2 gene can prevent high-fat diet-induce

Physiognomy and distribution of mountain meadows in an alpine valley over 150 years of spontaneous forest expansion

Through the classification of current and historical Canvas Mesh Athletic Running Shoes aerial photosbetween 1973 and 2006, we analysed the evolution of size, shape and connectivity of 59 mountain meadows (maggenghi) of the Pejo district (Trentino, Northern Italy).The maggenghi are scattered patches within a forested matrix.We conducted the same an
