Partial characterization of a malonyl-CoA-sensitive carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase I from Macrobrachium borellii (Crustacea: Palaemonidae)

open access: bronzeComparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2009
The shuttle system that mediates the transport of fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane in invertebrates has received little attention. Carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase I (EC 2.3.1.21; CPT I) is a key component of this system that in vertebrates controls long-chain fatty acid beta-oxidation.

Optimal Dietary α-Starch Requirement and Its Effects on Growth and Metabolic Regulation in Chinese Hook Snout Carp (Opsariichthys bidens) [PDF]

open access: yesBiology
This study investigated the effects of dietary carbohydrate levels on growth performance, body composition, and hepatic expression of metabolic genes in Chinese hook snout carp (Opsariichthys bidens). Fish were fed five isonitrogenous diets with graded α-

Oleic Acid Increases Lipid Accumulation in Duck Hepatocytes by Promoting Apolipoprotein A1 Expression [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
Background: Lipid overaccumulation in the liver predisposes ducks to metabolic disorders. The molecular mechanism of oleic acid (OA)-induced hepatic steatosis in ducks is not fully elucidated.

Endosymbiont hijacking of acylcarnitines regulates insect vector fecundity by suppressing the viability of stored sperm. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics
Competition between insects and their endosymbiotic bacteria for environmentally limited nutrients can compromise the fitness of both organisms. Tsetse flies, the vectors of pathogenic African trypanosomes, harbor a species and population-specific ...

Fenofibrate alleviates sepsis-associated acute kidney injury by enhancing renal fatty acid oxidation [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Pharmacology and Toxicology
Background Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) is a common and severe complication in patients with severe health conditions, yet effective targeted therapies are still not available. Recent studies implicate impaired fatty acid oxidation (FAO)

PHDs/CPT1B/VDAC1 axis regulates long-chain fatty acid oxidation in cardiomyocytes

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Cardiac metabolism is a high-oxygen-consuming process, showing a preference for long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) as the fuel source under physiological conditions.
