Ketogenic Diet and β‐Hydroxybutyrate Suppress Bladder Cancer Growth and Enhance Anti‐PD‐L1 Immunotherapy Efficacy

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 9, Page 2379-2396, September 2026.
Ketogenic diet and β‐hydroxybutyrate (β‐HB) suppress bladder cancer growth through direct anti‐tumor mechanisms and enhance anti‐PD‐L1 immunotherapy efficacy. β‐HB upregulates PD‐L1 via JAK2‐STAT3 activation and remodels the tumor immune microenvironment, sensitizing tumors to immune checkpoint blockade. ABSTRACT The limited clinical efficacy of immune

Degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) depolymerase from Alcaligenes faecalis T1

Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - General Subjects, 1986
The extracellular poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) depolymerase purified from Alcaligenes faecalis T1 has two disulfide bonds, one of which appears to be necessary for the full enzyme activity. This depolymerase hydrolyzed not only hydrophobic poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) but also water-soluble trimer and larger oligomers of D-(-)-3-hydroxybutyrate, regardless of ...

Preparation of alkyl (R)-(−)-3-hydroxybutyrate by acidic alcoholysis of poly-(R)-(−)-3-hydroxybutyrate

Enzyme and Microbial Technology, 2000
An efficient method for the preparation of optically active alkyl (R)-(-)-3-hydroxybutyrates by chemical depolymerization of biopolymer, poly-(R)-(-)-(3-hydroxybutyrate), was established. This method consists of simple recovery of poly-(R)-(-)-(3-hydroxybutyrate) from bacterial cells followed by acidic alcoholysis. When poly-(R)-(-)-(3-hydroxybutyrate)

Amperometric probe for 3-hydroxybutyrate with immobilized 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase

Analytica Chimica Acta, 1988
Abstract The enzyme 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase is immobilized on a graphite electrode suitable for determination of NADH. Of the several procedures tested for the immobilization, direct adsorption on the electrode surface was most satisfactory, with useful lifetimes of up to 3 days.

Anaerobic degradation of poly-3-hydroxybutyrate and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate

Biodegradation, 1997
The anaerobic degradation of the polyesters poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV) was investigated with special regard to intermediate products, kinetics, and yields. During the degradation of PHBV acetate, propionate, n-butyrate, and n-valerate were detected.

A chemical degradation of 3-hydroxybutyric acid

Analytical Biochemistry, 1978
Abstract A method is described for degrading 3-hydroxybutyric acid to obtain specifically and in good yield each of its carbons as CO 2 . The hydroxybutyrate is dehydrated to crotonic acid which is reduced to butyric acid. The butyric acid is then degraded stepwise utilizing the Schmidt reaction.

The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) and maleated poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2002
AbstractThe thermal decomposition mechanism of maleated poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) was investigated by FTIR and 1H NMR. The results of experiments showed that the random chain scission of maleated PHB obeyed the six‐membered ring ester decomposition process.
