Occurrence of 2-hydroxy fatty acids in animal tissues*
The contents of 2-hydroxy fatty acids in rat spleen, kidney, lung, sciatic nerve, and skin, and in bovine plasma, were determined by a copper precipitation method, and the proportions of the various hydroxy acids were determined by gas-liquid ...

Hydroxy acid conjugation to lipids increases structural and hydrolytic stability [PDF]
Contemporary life requires functional polymers and phospholipid-derived compartmentalization. Mutualistic relationships between compartmentalization and polymerization have never been demonstrated in an abiotic scenario.

Fatty Acyl Esters of Hydroxy Fatty Acid (FAHFA) Lipid Families
Fatty Acyl esters of Hydroxy Fatty Acids (FAHFA) encompass three different lipid families which have incorrectly been classified as wax esters. These families include (i) Branched-chain FAHFAs, involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism and ...

The 2-hydroxy fatty acids in white matter of infant and adult brains
White matter from five adult and five infant brains was analyzed for total fatty acids, galactolipids, and 2-hydroxy fatty acids. The distribution of 2-hydroxy fatty acids was determined quantitatively for each sample by gas–liquid chromatography of ...

Metabolomics of dietary fatty acid restriction in patients with phenylketonuria [PDF]
Patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) have to follow a lifelong phenylalanine restricted diet. This type of diet markedly reduces the intake of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids especially long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA).
