RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

Glial β-Oxidation regulates drosophila energy metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The brain's impotence to utilize long-chain fatty acids as fuel, one of the dogmas in neuroscience, is surprising, since the nervous system is the tissue most energy consuming and most vulnerable to a lack of energy.

Phytanic acid and pristanic acid are oxidized by sequential peroxisomal and mitochondrial reactions in cultured fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
The relationship between peroxisomal and mitochondrial oxidation of the methyl branched fatty acids, phytanic acid and pristanic acid, was studied in normal and mutant human skin fibroblasts with established enzyme deficiencies.

A Requirement for Fatty Acid Oxidation in the Hormone-Induced Meiotic Maturation of Mouse Oocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have previously shown that fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is required for AMP-activated protein kinase (PRKA)-induced maturation in vitro. In the present study, we have further investigated the role of this metabolic pathway in hormone-induced meiotic ...

Carnitine Inborn Errors of Metabolism

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Carnitine plays essential roles in intermediary metabolism. In non-vegetarians, most of carnitine sources (~75%) are obtained from diet whereas endogenous synthesis accounts for around 25%.

Differences in Breast Muscle Mitochondrial Respiratory Capacity, Reactive Oxygen Species Generation, and Complex Characteristics between 7-week-old Meat- and Laying-type Chickens

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2020
The skeletal muscle growth rate is a major feature differentiating meat- and laying-type chickens. A large amount of ATP is required during skeletal muscle synthesis, in which mitochondrial energy production capacities play a significant role ...

Fatty Acid Oxidation and Meiotic Resumption in Mouse Oocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have examined the potential role of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-induced meiotic maturation. Etomoxir and malonyl CoA, two inhibitors of carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 (CPT1), and thus FAO, blocked meiotic ...

Muscle Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase II (CPT II) Deficiency: A Conceptual Approach

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) catalyzes the transfer of long- and medium-chain fatty acids from cytoplasm into mitochondria, where oxidation of fatty acids takes place.

Dietary moderately oxidized oil induces expression of fibroblast growth factor 21 in the liver of pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), whose expression is induced by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha), has been recently identified as a novel metabolic regulator which plays a crucial role in glucose homeostasis ...

Molecular basis of hepatic carnitine palmitoyltransferase I deficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1998
Mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation is important for energy production, which is stressed by the different defects found in this pathway. Most of the enzyme deficiencies causing these defects are well characterized at both the protein and genomic levels.
