Loss of Hepatic Mitochondrial Long-Chain Fatty Acid Oxidation Confers Resistance to Diet-Induced Obesity and Glucose Intolerance

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
The liver has a large capacity for mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation, which is critical for systemic metabolic adaptations such as gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis.

2-pentanone production from hexanoic acid by Penicillium roqueforti from blue cheese:is this the pathway used in humans? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Production of 2-pentanone, a methylketone, is increased in fasting ketotic humans. Its origin is unknown. We hypothesised that it is formed via β-oxidation of hexanoic acid by the peroxisomal pathway proposed for methylketone-producing fungi and yeasts ...

PPAR/RXR Regulation of Fatty Acid Metabolism and Fatty Acid 𝜔-Hydroxylase (CYP4) Isozymes: Implications for Prevention of Lipotoxicity in Fatty Liver Disease

open access: yesPPAR Research, 2009
Fatty liver disease is a common lipid metabolism disorder influenced by the combination of individual genetic makeup, drug exposure, and life-style choices that are frequently associated with metabolic syndrome, which encompasses obesity, dyslipidemia ...

Regulation of podocyte survival and endoplasmic reticulum stress by fatty acids and its modification by Stearoyl-CoA desaturases and cyclic AMP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Podocyte apoptosis is a hallmark in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Several factors of the diabetic milieu are known to induce podocyte apoptosis. Currently, the role of free fatty acids (FFAs) for podocytopathy and podocyte

Contribution of omega-oxidation to fatty acid oxidation by liver of rat and monkey.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1978
Contributions of omega-oxidation to overall fatty acid oxidation in slices from livers of ketotic alloxan diabetic rats and of fasted monkeys are estimated.

Effect of Traditional Drying Methods on Proximate Composition, Fatty Acid Profile, and Oil Oxidation of Fish Species Consumed in the Far‐North of Cameroon

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, 2020
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of two traditional drying methods on proximate composition, lipid oxidation, and fatty acid composition of two freshwater fish species from Maga Lake in Cameroon.

Stable isotope metabolomics of pulmonary artery smooth muscle and endothelial cells in pulmonary hypertension and with TGF-beta treatment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Altered metabolism in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and endothelial cells (PAECs) contributes to the pathology of pulmonary hypertension (PH), but changes in substrate uptake and how substrates are utilized have not been fully ...

Characterization of the human omega-oxidation pathway for omega-hydroxy-very-long-chain fatty acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) have long been known to be degraded exclusively in peroxisomes via beta-oxidation. A defect in peroxisomal beta-oxidation results in elevated levels of VLCFAs and is associated with the most frequent inherited ...

Regulation of fatty acid oxidation in mouse cumulus-oocyte complexes during maturation and modulation by PPAR agonists.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Fatty acid oxidation is an important energy source for the oocyte; however, little is known about how this metabolic pathway is regulated in cumulus-oocyte complexes.

A comparative study of straight chain and branched chain fatty acid oxidation in skin fibroblasts from patients with peroxisomal disorders.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
The beta-oxidation of stearic acid and of alpha- and gamma-methyl isoprenoid-derived fatty acids (pristanic and tetramethylheptadecanoic acids, respectively) was investigated in normal skin fibroblasts and in fibroblasts from patients with inherited ...
