The effect of beta-hydroxybutyrate concentration in the blood on reproduction, production, and health of cows in the first weeks after calving [PDF]
The constant monitoring of dairy cow metabolism is extremely important, especially in the period immediately after calving, when the animals face the consequences of negative energy balance.

Beta-Hydroxybutyrate, Friend or Foe for Stressed Hearts [PDF]
One of the characteristics of the failing human heart is a significant alteration in its energy metabolism. Recently, a ketone body, β-hydroxybutyrate (β-OHB) has been implicated in the failing heart’s energy metabolism as an alternative “fuel source.” Utilization of β-OHB in the failing heart increases, and this serves as a “fuel switch” that has been

A Systematic Review of Intravenous β-Hydroxybutyrate Use in Humans – A Promising Future Therapy?
Therapeutic ketosis is traditionally induced with dietary modification. However, owing to the time delay involved, this is not a practical approach for treatment of acute conditions such as traumatic brain injury.

Beta-ketothiolases are involved in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids and the metabolism of hormones, benzenoids, and hydroxybutyrate. The expression of bacterial beta-ketothiolase in flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) results in an increase in endogenous beta-

Beta-Hydroxybutyrate: A Dual Function Molecular and Immunological Barrier Function Regulator
Ketone bodies are crucial intermediate metabolites widely associated with treating metabolic diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests that ketone bodies may act as immunoregulators in humans and animals to attenuate pathological inflammation through ...

Metabolic Phenotypes and Step by Step Evolution of Type 2 Diabetes: A New Paradigm
Unlike bolus insulin secretion mechanisms, basal insulin secretion is poorly understood. It is essential to elucidate these mechanisms in non-hyperinsulinaemia healthy persons.

Blood pressure, body mass index lowering and ketogenesis in Qigong Bigu
Background Hypertension is one of the most common comorbid conditions of epilepsy. Hypertension and epilepsy may be related to each other. Qigong Bigu practice induces a similar effect as fasting in the first week.

Predisposition to acute pancreatitis in dogs with severe acute renal failure
: Patients with acute renal failure often have a negative energy balance, which promotes metabolic changes predisposing to complications. The objective of this study was to evaluate laboratory parameters of 30 dogs with severe acute renal failure, to ...

Targeting of astrocytic glucose metabolism by beta-hydroxybutyrate [PDF]
The effectiveness of ketogenic diets and intermittent fasting against neurological disorders has brought interest to the effects of ketone bodies on brain cells. These compounds are known to modify the metabolism of neurons, but little is known about their effect on astrocytes, cells that control the supply of glucose to neurons and also modulate ...
