Oxidative decarboxylation of retinoic acid in microsomes of rat liver and kidney
Liver and kidney microsomes have been found to catalyze a rapid decarboxylation of retinoic acid in vitro. The reaction requires NADPH and Fe2+, and is further stimulated by the presence of pyrophosphate.

While assessing the ability of mammalian lung tissue to metabolize theophylline, a new metabolite was isolated and characterized. The metabolite was produced by the microsomal fraction of lungs from several species, including rat, rabbit, dog, pig, sheep

Analyses of CYP2C in Porcine Microsomes [PDF]
Abstract: The cytochrome P450 2C (CYP2C) subfamily in human beings includes four different isoenzymes that metabolize different substrates although with some cross reactivity. Some of these substrates (e.g. diclofenac and tolbutamide), have been investigated in porcine microsomes, but without identifying the specific CYP catalysing the reactions.

Relationship between NAFLD and coronary artery disease: A Mendelian randomization study
Abstract Background and Aims There is an ongoing debate on whether NAFLD is an active contributor or an innocent bystander in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to assess the causal relationship between NAFLD and CAD.

Inhibition of palmitoyl CoA deacylase by chlorophenoxyisobutyrate and betabenzalbutyrate
Palmitoyl CoA deacylase activity was measured in preparations of rat liver microsomes. Two hypolipidemic agents, chlorophenoxyisobutyrate and betabenzalbutyrate caused inhibition of palmitoyl CoA deacylase in vitro.

Characterisation of androstenone metabolism in pig liver microsomes
Androstenone (5α-androst-16-en-3-one) is a steroid pheromone produced in the testis. Excessive accumulation of androstenone together with skatole (3-methyl-indole) in the adipose tissue of some male pigs leads to "boar taint". In isolated pig hepatocytes

Abstract Background and Aims Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPARα) regulates fatty acid transport and catabolism in liver. However, the role of intestinal PPARα in lipid homeostasis is largely unknown. Here, intestinal PPARα was examined for its modulation of obesity and NASH. Approach and Results Intestinal PPARα was activated and fatty

The in vitro biotransformation of phenol at 11 °C was studied using pre-spawn adult rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (RBT), brook (Salvelinus fontinalis) (BKT), and lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) (LKT) hepatic microsomal preparations.
