RESUMEN
Las evidencias científicas identifican que el excesivo
consumo de productos elaborados con jarabe de maíz
de alta fructosa es el detonante de la obesidad, cuya
prevalencia incrementó en los últimos años. Debido a
las características metabólicas de la fructosa, se
produce un rápido vaciado gástrico que altera las
señales de hambre-saciedad y disminuye el apetito. A
nivel hepático, durante su catabolismo se generan
triosas fosfato y decrece el trifosfato de adenosina
(ATP, por sus siglas en inglés), lo cual produce ácido
úrico. Las triosas fosfato son dirigidas hacia la síntesis
de ácidos grasos, incrementando la producción y la
acumulación de triacilglicéridos, diacilglicerol y
ceramidas que inducen resistencia a la insulina. La
hiperlipidemia, la resistencia a la insulina y la
hiperuricemia contribuyen al desarrollo de hipertensión,
enfermedad cardiovascular, enfermedad renal crónica,
hígado graso no alcohólico y algunos tipos de cáncer.
Entender los mecanismos moleculares y las vías de
señalización alteradas por el consumo de fructosa es
relevante para comprender el desarrollo de
enfermedades metabólicas, así como la búsqueda de
estrategias terapéuticas para procurar una mejor
calidad de vida.

La ingesta de fructosa se asocia con enfermedades metabólicas, afecta corazón, riñón e hígado. La hipertensión y la enfermedad cardiovascular son provocadas por hiperuricemia que genera disfunción endotelial y, además, sobreproducción de VLDL o LDL, inductoras de ateromas. A nivel renal, la hipertensión y la acumulación de cristales de urato reducen la tasa de filtración glomerular y la consecuente enfermedad renal crónica. En el hígado, la producción descontrolada de ácidos grasos, la formación de triacilglicéridos y su acumulación en hepatocitos produce esteatosis con progresión a esteatohepatitis no alcohólica (con o sin presencia de fibrosis) y potencial evolución a cirrosis hepática. El consumo excesivo y prolongado de fructosa se ha asociado con ciertos tipos de cáncer por el incremento de insulina y la activación de IGF-1, por la vía de las pentosas fosfato, inductoras de proliferación celular VLDL = lipoproteína de muy baja densidad; LDL = lipoproteína de baja densidad; IGF-1 = factor de crecimiento insulínico-1 Estrógeno Cáncer Insulina IGF-1 Activación de vía de las pentosas fosfato Endometrial tipo I Proliferación celular Hipertensión Ácido úrico Disfunción endotelial Óxido nítrico Reabsorción de sodio Enfermedad cardiovascular VLDL LDL ox-LDL Célula Ateroma espumosa Enfermedad hepàtica Ácidos grasos de novo VLDL Esteatosis Lipoperoxidación Transaminasas FIbrosis Esteatohepatitis Enfermedad renal crónica Presión arterial Tasa de filtración glomerular Fibrosis intersticial Cristales de urato Inflamación 2
