Ketone bodies: from enemy to friend and guardian angel
During starvation, fasting, or a diet containing little digestible carbohydrates, the circulating insulin levels are decreased. This promotes lipolysis, and the breakdown of fat becomes the major source of energy.

Background It has been suggested that administration of exogenous ketone supplements (EKSs) not only increases blood ketone body levels but also decreases blood glucose level and modulates isoflurane-induced anesthesia in different rodents, such as ...

Metabolic and Signaling Roles of Ketone Bodies in Health and Disease.
Ketone bodies play significant roles in organismal energy homeostasis, serving as oxidative fuels, modulators of redox potential, lipogenic precursors, and signals, primarily during states of low carbohydrate availability. Efforts to enhance wellness and

SGLT2 Inhibitors and Ketone Metabolism in Heart Failure
Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have emerged as powerful drugs that can be used to treat heart failure (HF) patients, both with preserved and reduced ejection fraction and in the presence or absence of type 2 diabetes.

Ruthenacycles and Iridacycles as Transfer Hydrogenation Catalysts
In this review, we describe the synthesis and use in hydrogen transfer reactions of ruthenacycles and iridacycles. The review limits itself to metallacycles where a ligand is bound in bidentate fashion to either ruthenium or iridium via a carbon–metal ...

Short-Chain Fatty Acids Outpace Ketone Oxidation in the Failing Heart
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: The failing heart is energy starved with impaired oxidation of long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs) at the level of reduced CPT1 (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1) activity at the outer ...

(2-Hydroxyphenyl)(4,2′:4′,4′′-terpyridin-6′-yl)methanone
The title compound, C22H15N3O2, can be described as a ketone with a phenol substituent and a terpyridine ligand coordinated to the carbonyl group. The three six-membered rings of the terpyridine ligand are not coplanar.

Anti-Tumor Effects of BDH1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Dysregulation of ketone metabolism has been reported in various types of cancer. In order to find out its role in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis, we first analyzed the expression levels of 10 key genes involved in ketone metabolism in AML ...
