Metabolic Changes Following Perinatal Asphyxia: Role of Astrocytes and Their Interaction with Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Perinatal Asphyxia (PA) represents an important cause of severe neurological deficits including delayed mental and motor development, epilepsy, major cognitive deficits and blindness.

Ketone Bodies Stimulate Chaperone-mediatedAutophagy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a selective lysosomal protein degradative process that is activated in higher organisms under conditions of prolonged starvation and in cell culture by the removal of serum. Ketone bodies are comprised of three compounds (beta-hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate, and acetone) that circulate during starvation, especially ...

Ketogenic diet-induced weight loss is associated with an increase in vitamin d levels in obese adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Vitamin D is an important micronutrient involved in several processes. Evidence has shown a strong association between hypovitaminosis D and cardio-metabolic diseases, including obesity.

Ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate is an autophagy-dependent vasodilator

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
Autophagy has long been associated with longevity, and it is well established that autophagy reverts and prevents vascular deterioration associated with aging and cardiovascular diseases.

Metabolomic Profiling of Statin Use and Genetic Inhibition of HMG-CoA Reductase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Statins are first-line therapy for cardiovascular disease prevention, but their systemic effects across lipoprotein subclasses, fatty acids, and circulating metabolites remain incompletely characterized.

Potential therapeutic use of the ketogenic diet in autism spectrum disorders. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The ketogenic diet (KGD) has been recognized as an effective treatment for individuals with glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) deficiencies as well as with epilepsy.

Plasma metabolites reflect seasonally changing metabolic processes in a long-distance migrant shorebird (Calidris canutus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Migrant birds have tightly scheduled annual cycles consisting of several distinct life cycle (sub-)stages such as reproduction, migration, moult and overwintering, each of which have specific metabolic requirements (e.g., fattening during migration ...

Ketogenic Substrate Supplementation Attenuates Acute Inflammatory Responses in a Mouse Model of DNFB-Induced Allergic Contact Dermatitis

open access: yesBiologics
Background/Objectives: Fasting-induced elevation of blood ketone body levels suppresses allergic reactions; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study investigated whether elevated ketone body levels affect allergic contact dermatitis (

Raspberry ketone attenuates high-fat diet-induced obesity by improving metabolic homeostasis in rats

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2020
Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanisms of the anti-obese effect of raspberry ketone against high-fat diet fed rats. Methods: Fifty adult male rats were randomly assigned to receive a standard diet, a high fat diet, and the high-fat diet and 0.

Evaluation of in vitro toxicity of common phytochemicals included in weight loss supplements using 1H NMR spectroscopy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...
