Reliability and diagnostic performance of a new blood ketone and glucose meter in humans

open access: yesJournal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2021
Background Accurate and reliable monitoring of blood ketone and glucose levels is useful for athletes adhering to a ketogenic diet who want to verify that they are in a state of ketosis and, therefore, accruing performance adaptations.

D-beta-hydroxybutyrate extends lifespan in C. elegans

open access: yesAging, 2014
The ketone body beta-hydroxybutyrate (βHB) is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor and has been shown to be protective in many disease models, but its effects on aging are not well studied. Therefore we determined the effect of βHB supplementation on the lifespan ofC. elegans nematodes. βHB supplementation extended mean lifespan by approximately 20%.

Children with Epilepsy With Different Baseline Blood Beta‐hydroxybutyrate Have Similar Blood Beta‐hydroxybutyrate and Response on Ketogenic Therapy

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2015
Background Children with epilepsy may have fasting blood beta‐hydroxybutyrate (BOB) similar to (low BOB) or higher than (high BOB) healthy children, which could reflect differences in metabolism or usual diet. BOB increases in children with epilepsy on Ketogenic Therapy (KT), where fat is most of the Calories ...

Optimizing Sow and Litter Performance via a Comprehensive Service-to-Weaning Feeding Regimen

open access: yesAnimals
Hyperprolific genetic lines achieve large litters but are at increased risk of metabolic stress, impaired sow condition, and reduced piglet viability. This study aimed to evaluate whether a phase-specific feeding program from service to weaning improves ...

Lipid specificity of beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase activation.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1975
Beef heart mitochondrial beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase forms a catalytically active complex with lecithin and is inactive in the absence of lecithin. The specificity of the activation process was probed by studying the interaction of the enzyme with phospholipids and other compounds.
