Synthesis and properties of lipoamino acid/fatty acid mixtures. Influence of the amphiphilic structure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The acylation of amino acids by acid chlorides with from 8 to 12 carbon atoms, in alkaline aqueous medium following Shotten-Baumann reaction, results in sodium salts of Nα-acylamino acids and fatty acids mixture. These lastest are present in proportion

Aldosterone induces trained immunity: the role of fatty acid synthesis.

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2019
AIMS Supranormal levels of aldosterone are associated with an increased cardiovascular risk in humans, and with accelerated atherosclerosis in animal models. Atherosclerosis is a low-grade inflammatory disorder, with monocyte-derived macrophages as major

Differential effects of eicosapentaenoic acid and oleic acid on lipid synthesis and secretion by HepG2 cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1991
The effects of eicosapentaenoic acid and oleic acid on lipid synthesis and secretion by HepG2 cells were examined to identify fatty acid specific changes in lipid metabolism that might indicate a basis for the hypolipidemic effect attributed to ...

Replication of Marek's Disease Virus Is Dependent on Synthesis of De Novo Fatty Acid and Prostaglandin E2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Marek’s disease virus (MDV) causes deadly lymphoma and induces an imbalance of the lipid metabolism in infected chickens. Here, we discovered that MDV activates the fatty acid synthesis (FAS) pathway in primary chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEFs).

Enzyme promiscuity drives branched-chain fatty acid synthesis in adipose tissues

open access: yesNature Chemical Biology, 2018
Fatty acid synthase (FASN) predominantly generates straight-chain fatty acids using acetyl-CoA as the initiating substrate. However, monomethyl branched-chain fatty acids (mmBCFAs) are also present in mammals but are thought to be primarily diet derived.

Key Molecules of Fatty Acid Metabolism in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Fatty acid metabolism is closely linked to the progression of gastric cancer (GC), a very aggressive and life-threatening tumor. This study examines linked molecules, such as Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein 1 (SREBP1), ATP Citrate Lyase (ACLY),

CoA protects against the deleterious effects of caloric overload in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We developed a Drosophila model of T2D in which high sugar (HS) feeding leads to insulin resistance. In this model, adipose TG storage is protective against fatty acid toxicity and diabetes.

Engineering fungal de novo fatty acid synthesis for short chain fatty acid production

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Fatty acids (FAs) are considered strategically important platform compounds that can be accessed by sustainable microbial approaches. Here we report the reprogramming of chain-length control of Saccharomyces cerevisiae fatty acid synthase (FAS).

Fatty acid ethyl esters and HepG2 cells: intracellular synthesis and release from the cells

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE), esterification products of fatty acid and ethanol, have been implicated as mediators of ethanol-induced organ damage. To understand the molecular and cellular events in FAEE synthesis and secretion, we developed a system ...

FabR regulates Salmonella biofilm formation via its direct target FabB [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Biofilm formation is an important survival strategy of Salmonella in all environments. By mutant screening, we showed a knock-out mutant of fabR, encoding a repressor of unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis (UFA), to have impaired biofilm ...
