The Effect of Temperature and Nitrate Compound on Growth, Biomass and Free Fatty Acid Content on Microalgae Culture of Spirulina sp. and Skeletonema sp. [PDF]
Temperature and availability nutrients played an important role on growth and lipid production of microalgae. In this study, we examined the effect of increasing suhu and excessed and depleted NO3 on growth rate, biomass and free fatty acid concentration

Complex Pharmacology of Free Fatty Acid Receptors [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are historically the most successful family of drug targets. In recent times it has become clear that the pharmacology of these receptors is far more complex than previously imagined. Understanding of the pharmacological regulation of GPCRs now extends beyond simple competitive agonism or antagonism by ligands ...

Immune-mediated antitumor activities confront a variety of tumor-mediated defense mechanisms. Here, we describe a new mechanism involving FFA that may allow breast cancer to evade immune clearance. We determined the IC50 at which unbound free fatty acids

Plasma anandamide and other N-acylethanolamines are correlated with their corresponding free fatty acid levels under both fasting and non-fasting conditions in women [PDF]
N-acylethanolamines (NAEs), such as anandamide (AEA), are a group of endogenous lipids derived from a fatty acid linked to ethanolamine and have a wide range of biological activities, including regulation of metabolism and food intake.

A single extracellular amino acid in Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2 defines antagonist species selectivity and G protein selection bias [PDF]
Free Fatty Acid Receptor 2 is a GPCR activated by short chain fatty acids produced in high levels in the lower gut by microbial fermentation of non-digestible carbohydrates.

Quantitative aspects of free fatty acid metabolism in the fasted rat
Palmitate-1-14C was injected intravenously into unanesthetized, fasted rats. Disappearance of tracer from plasma free fatty acids was studied. A large component of free fatty acid (FFA) recycling was directly demonstrated by reinjection experiments.

Esterification of Free Fatty Acids with Glycerol within the Biodiesel Production Framework [PDF]
Companies in the field of the collection and treatment of waste cooking oils (WCO) for subsequent biodiesel production usually have to cope with high acidity oils, which cannot be directly transformed into fatty acid methyl esters due to soap production.

G-protein-coupled receptors for free fatty acids: nutritional and therapeutic targets [PDF]
It is becoming evident that nutrients and metabolic intermediates derived from such nutrients regulate cellular function by activating a number of cell-surface G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs).
