The 2R, 3R isomer of 2, 3-butanediol prevents weight gain and decreases plasma glucose concentration of mice fed a fat-enriched diet [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyBackgroundWe have previously shown that, in comparison with wild-type mice, mice that lack a functional flavin-containing monooxygenase 5 gene (Fmo5-/- mice) exhibit reduced weight gain as they age, reduced fat deposition, and lower plasma concentrations
