Regulation of
mSphere, 2018 To satisfy its fatty acid needs, the extracellular eukaryotic parasite Trypanosoma brucei relies on two mechanisms: uptake of fatty acids from the host and de novo synthesis. We hypothesized that T.

Synthesis and Comparative Antibacterial Activity of Fatty Acid Capped Silver Nanoparticles
Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2020 In the present work, the chemical reduction method has been used to synthesize silver nanoparticles using stearic acid capping agents in different concentrations. These nanoparticles are characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy and dynamic light

Insights Into the Nutritional Prevention of Macular Degeneration based on a Comparative Topic Modeling Approach [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Topic modeling and text mining are subsets of Natural Language Processing (NLP) with relevance for conducting meta-analysis (MA) and systematic review (SR). For evidence synthesis, the above NLP methods are conventionally used for topic-specific literature searches or extracting values from reports to automate essential phases of SR and MA.

Monolayer characteristics of chitosan assembled in Langmuir films mixed with arachidic acid [PDF]
Surf. Rev. Lett. 21, 1450049 (2014), 2015 Here we report the monolayer characteristics of a biodegradable polymer chitosan using Langmuir-Blodgett film technique. Usually chitosan has not form stable monolayer film. However they form stable monolayer film when mixed with fatty acid. Our result may be useful for the biological application of chitosan mainly in drug delivery.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Breast tumor samples scored for metabolic deregulation (M1 to M3) were given a hypoxia score (HS). The highest HS occurred in patients with strongest metabolic deregulation (M3), supporting tumor aggressiveness. HS correlated with the highest number of metabolic pathways in M1. This suggests hypoxia to be an early event in metabolic deregulation.

Targeted metabolomics reveals novel diagnostic biomarkers for colorectal cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study employed targeted metabolomic profiling to identify 302 distinct metabolites present in platelet‐rich plasma (PRP), revealing aberrant metabolic profiles amongst individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC). Compared to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen 19‐9 (CA199), our metabolite panel showed improved sensitivity ...

De novo fatty acid synthesis and elongation of fatty acids by subcellular fractions of lung
Journal of Lipid Research, 1971 Fatty acid synthesis by subcellular fractions of rabbit lung was studied by measuring the incorporation of either radioactive acetyl coenzyme A or malonyl coenzyme A into long-chain fatty acids.

A model for regulated fatty acid metabolism in liver; equilibria and their changes [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 We build a model for the hepatic fatty acid metabolism and its metabolic and genetic regulations. The model has two functioning modes: synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids. We provide a sufficient condition (the strong lipolytic condition) for the uniqueness of its equilibrium.

Impurity contribution to ultraviolet absorption of saturated fatty acids [PDF]
Science Advances 9 (2023) eadj6438Saturated fatty acids are abundant organic compounds in oceans and sea sprays. Their photochemical reactions induced by solar radiation have recently been discovered as an abiotic source of volatile organic compounds, which serve as precursors of secondary organic aerosols.
