Parabacteroides distasonis promotes liver regeneration by increasing β-hydroxybutyric acid (BHB) production and BHB-driven STAT3 signals [PDF]
The liver regenerative capacity is crucial for patients with end-stage liver disease following partial hepatectomy (PHx). The specific bacteria and mechanisms regulating liver regeneration post-PHx remain unclear.

The Dynamic Transcription Profiles of Proliferating Bovine Ovarian Granulosa When Exposed to Increased Levels of β-Hydroxybutyric Acid [PDF]
Ketosis is common in high-yield dairy cows. It is a condition that is characterized by the accumulation of serum β-hydroxybutyric acid (BHBA). Both subclinical ketosis and clinical ketosis can compromise the reproductive performance and cause long ...

Ketone body therapy with D/L-β-hydroxybutyric acid solution in severe MADD [PDF]
Objectives: Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) is a severe inborn disorder of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. The only treatment option for MADD is the use of exogenous ketone bodies, like sodium β-hydroxybutyrate (NaβHB). However, the
