1.14.19.1 | physiological function | stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1, SCD1, is an enzyme that desaturates satruated fatty acids (SFA), converting them to monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), leading to the formation of neutral lipid droplets. SCD1 activity protects cells against lipotoxicity-mediated apoptosis in proximal tubular cells. In culture, retrovirus-mediated overexpression of SCD1 or MUFA treatment significantly ameliorates saturated fatty acid-induced apoptosis in proximal tubular epithelial cells by enhancing intracellular lipid droplet formation. Both overexpression of SCD1 and monounsaturated fatty acid treatment reduces SFA-induced apoptosis via reducing endoplasmic reticulum stress in cultured proximal tubular epithelial cells | Mus musculus |
