Structural model of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I based on the carnitine acetyltransferase crystal [PDF]
CPT I (carnitine palmitoyltransferase I) catalyses the conversion of palmitoyl-CoA into palmitoylcarnitine in the presence of l-carnitine, facilitating the entry of fatty acids into mitochondria. We propose a 3-D (three-dimensional) structural model for L-CPT I (liver CPT I), based on the similarity of this enzyme to the recently crystallized mouse ...

Regulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase in vivo by glucagon and insulin [PDF]
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT total) activity and synthesis increase in states where the insulin/glucagon ratio is low, such as starvation and diabetes [Brady & Brady (1987) Biochem. J. 246, 641-646]. However, the effect of glucagon and insulin on CPT synthesis is unknown.

Carnitine palmitoyltransferase I in human carcinomas: a novel role in histone deacetylation? [PDF]
Carnitine palmitoyl transferase I (CPT1) catalyzes the transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria for beta-oxidation. A link between CPT1 and apoptosis has been suggested on the basis of several experimental data.

Carnitine palmitoyltransferase IA polymorphism P479L is common in Greenland Inuit and is associated with elevated plasma apolipoprotein A-I [PDF]
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase IA, encoded by CPT1A, is a key regulator of fatty acid metabolism. Previously, a loss-of-function mutation, namely, c.1436 C→T (p.P479L), was reported in CPT1A in the homozygous state in Canadian aboriginal male with ...

The liver is crucial for systemic inflammation in cancer cachexia. Previous studies have shown that L-carnitine, as the key regulator of lipid metabolism, exerts an anti-inflammatory effect in several diseases, and ameliorates the symptoms of cachexia by regulating the expression and activity of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) in the liver ...

The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Dietary copper supplementation modulates performance and lipid metabolism in meat goat kids
Forty-eight male Lezhi black goat kids with similar body weight ((12.09±1.70) kg) and age ((60±5) d) were used to determine the effect of dietary copper (Cu), in the form of reagent grade Cu sulfate (CuSO4·5H2O), on performance, serum lipid profile, and ...
