Vitamin K: Metabolism, Genetic Influences, and Chronic Disease Outcomes
Vitamin K exists in two natural isoforms: phylloquinone (PK, vitamin K1) and menaquinones (MKs, vitamin K2), and is an essential cofactor for the post‐translational carboxylation of vitamin K‐dependent proteins (VKDPs). VKDPs are implicated in various physiological processes, including blood coagulation, calcium homeostasis, as well as metabolic and ...

iPSC‐Derived Liver Organoids as a Tool to Study Medium Chain Acyl‐CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency
ABSTRACT Medium chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCADD) is an inherited metabolic disease, characterized by biallelic variants in the ACADM gene. Interestingly, even with the same genotype, patients often present with very heterogeneous symptoms, ranging from fully asymptomatic to life‐threatening hypoketotic hypoglycemia.

Pharmacogenetic testing can prevent severe toxicities from several oncology drug therapies; it also has the potential to improve the outcomes from supportive care drugs. Paired tumor and germline sequencing is increasingly common in oncology practice; these include sequencing of pharmacogenes, but the germline pharmacogenetic variants are rarely ...

Human CYP4F3s are the main catalysts in the oxidation of fatty acid epoxides
CYP4F isoforms are involved in the oxidation of important cellular mediators such as leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and prostaglandins. The proinflammatory agent LTB4 and cytotoxic leukotoxins have been associated with several inflammatory diseases.
