Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, circulating ketone bodies and all‐cause mortality in a general population‐based cohort [PDF]
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly prevalent, paralleling the obesity epidemic. Ketone bodies are produced in the liver, but it is currently uncertain whether circulating ketone bodies are increased in the context of NAFLD.

Oxaloacetate and Ketone Bodies Synergistically Promote Myoblast Differentiation in L6 Cells [PDF]
Malnutrition and aging are major factors that inhibit myoblast differentiation, leading to a decline in muscle function and contributing to sarcopenia development.

Ketone bodies for the failing heart: fuels that can fix the engine? [PDF]
Accumulating evidence suggests that the failing heart reverts energy metabolism toward increased utilization of ketone bodies. Despite many discrepancies in the literature, evidence from both bench and clinical research demonstrates beneficial effects of

Exploring the role of ketone bodies in the diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric disorders
In recent times, advances in the field of metabolomics have shed greater light on the role of metabolic disturbances in neuropsychiatric conditions. The following review explores the role of ketone bodies and ketosis in both the diagnosis and treatment ...

Ketone bodies (KBs), comprising β-hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate and acetone, are a set of fuel molecules serving as an alternative energy source to glucose. KBs are mainly produced by the liver from fatty acids during periods of fasting, and prolonged or

Effects of Ketone Bodies on Brain Metabolism and Function in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Under normal physiological conditions the brain primarily utilizes glucose for ATP generation. However, in situations where glucose is sparse, e.g., during prolonged fasting, ketone bodies become an important energy source for the brain.

Ketone Bodies in Neurological Diseases: Focus on Neuroprotection and Underlying Mechanisms
There is growing evidence that ketone bodies, which are derived from fatty acid oxidation and usually produced in fasting state or on high-fat diets have broad neuroprotective effects.
