Abstract: The early life of nutrition is closely related to obesity and metabolic syndrome in adult.Lipid metabolic dysfunction is one of the important mechanisms in the development of adult diseases.Liver plays a key role in lipid metabolism.Hepatic lipid metabolism mainly includes fatty acid uptake,synthesis,esterification,oxidation and export.Exposed to a optimal nutrition environment in early life might lead to some adaptive effects in the liver and its organization structure,cell numbers and metabolic function.These adaptive responses might play a persistent effect in each way of hepatic lipid metabolism.Clarifying the programming effect of early nutrition on hepatic lipid metabolism and the relative molecular mechanism might provide related theoretical basis and practical molecular target for the prevention of adult diseases during childhood.
