methacetin and Overweight

methacetin has been researched along with Overweight in 2 studies

methacetin: RN given refers to parent cpd
methacetin : A member of the class of acetamides that is paracetamol in which the hydrogen of phenolic hydroxy group has been replaced by a methyl group.

Overweight: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is above certain standards. In the scale of BODY MASS INDEX, overweight is defined as having a BMI of 25.0-29.9 kg/m2. Overweight may or may not be due to increases in body fat (ADIPOSE TISSUE), hence overweight does not equal over fat.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Overweight, obesity and liver fat accumulation manifest with deranged portal extraction efficiency of methacetin into the steatotic hepatocyte."4.31Liver fat accumulation more than fibrosis causes early liver dynamic dysfunction in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. ( Andrade, R; Bonfrate, L; Di Ciaula, A; Macedo, MP; Pina, A; Portincasa, P; Raposo, JF; Ribeiro, R; Shanmugam, H, 2023)
" The present study was conducted on 39 (20 lean and 19 obese) hypertransaminasemic patients with histologically proven NAFLD {ranging from simple steatosis to severe steatohepatitis [NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis)] and fibrosis} and 28 (20 lean and eight overweight) healthy controls, who underwent stable isotope breath testing ([(13)C]methacetin and [(13)C]ketoisocaproate) for microsomal and mitochondrial liver function in relation to histology, serum hyaluronate, as a marker of liver fibrosis, and body size."3.73Liver breath tests non-invasively predict higher stages of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. ( Grattagliano, I; Lauterburg, BH; Palasciano, G; Palmieri, VO; Portincasa, P; Stellaard, F, 2006)
