Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In this report, we demonstrate that high fat diet induced obesity increases the severity of hyperoxic acute lung injury in mice in part by altering fatty acid synthase (FASN) levels in the lung. 31287803 2019

Obesity
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE A novel series of fatty acid synthase (FAS) inhibitors with D-(-)-pantolactone moiety and potential utility for the treatment of obesity were designed, synthesized and characterized, in which the structure of compound 3k was further confirmed by single X-ray diffraction. 31492533 2019

CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Obesity in WT mice fed a HFD associated with elevated serum IL-6 levels, fatty liver, upregulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) and signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3), increased AMP kinase phosphorylation (p-AMPK), and downregulation of the hepatic lipogenic enzymes fatty acid synthase (FAS) and stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1). 26035386 2015
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE CP and OS infusions suppressed hepatic tissue fat accumulation, and significantly down-regulated the mRNA levels of two hepatic lipogenesis genes: sterol regulatory element binding protein 1c (SREBP1c) and fatty acid synthase (FAS) compared with the obese control. 24584283 2014
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
Obesity
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a potential therapeutic target for treatment of cancer and obesity, and is highly elevated in 30% of HER2-overexpressing breast cancers. 22767439 2013
CUI: C0028754
Disease: Obesity
