Urine ketone bodies and adverse outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA
Background and aims: Urine ketone bodies have been considered as predictors of stroke in diabetic patients, however, the role of urine ketone bodies in the prognosis of stroke has not been investigated well.

Beta-Hydroxybutyrate: A Dual Function Molecular and Immunological Barrier Function Regulator
Ketone bodies are crucial intermediate metabolites widely associated with treating metabolic diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests that ketone bodies may act as immunoregulators in humans and animals to attenuate pathological inflammation through ...

Measuring ketone bodies for the monitoring of pathologic and therapeutic ketosis
Background The ketone bodies β‐hydroxybutyrate (BOHB) and acetone are generated as a byproduct of the fat metabolism process. In healthy individuals, ketone body levels are ∼0.1 mM for BOHB and ∼1 part per million for breath acetone (BrAce). These levels

Ketone body oxidation increases cardiac endothelial cell proliferation
Blood vessel formation is dependent on metabolic adaption in endothelial cells. Glucose and fatty acids are essential substrates for ATP and biomass production; however, the metabolism of other substrates remains poorly understood.

Cardiac ketone body metabolism
The ketone bodies, d-β-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate, are soluble 4-carbon compounds derived principally from fatty acids, that can be metabolised by many oxidative tissues, including heart, in carbohydrate-depleted conditions as glucose-sparing energy substrates.

The efficacy of low-carbohydrate, high-fat diets, such as ketogenic diets, for cancer patients is of research interest. We previously demonstrated the efficacy of the ketogenic diet in a case study in which medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) or MCT ...

Ketone bodies in epilepsy [PDF]
J. Neurochem.(2012)121, 28–35.AbstractSeizures that are resistant to standard medications remain a major clinical problem. One underutilized option for patients with medication‐resistant seizures is the high‐fat, low‐carbohydrate ketogenic diet. The diet received its name based on the observation that patients consuming this diet produce ketone bodies (

Ketone bodies are metabolites that replace glucose as the main fuel of the brain in situations of glucose scarcity, including prolonged fasting, extenuating exercise, or pathological conditions such as diabetes.
