The effect of experimental hyperoxia on erythrocytes’ oxygen-transport function [PDF]

, 2018
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of hyperoxia, calcium ions and pH value on the composition of major phospholipids in human erythrocyte membranes and erythrocytes’ oxygen-transport function. To create a model of hyperoxia, we saturated

Fruiting character variability in wild individuals of Malania oleifera, a highly valued endemic species

Scientific Reports, 2021
Malania oleifera (Olacaceae), a tree species endemic to Southwest China, has seed oils enriched with nervonic acid and is therefore good source of this chemical.

Identification of KCS gene family and functional analysis of FAE-like genes from Malania oleifera

Oil Crop Science, 2021
KCS (3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase) is the key enzyme catalyzing the first step of very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) biosynthesis. Studies showed that different KCSs possessed different substrate preference.

Immunomodulatory Effects of Nervonic Acid in RAW264.7 Macrophages

Journal of Food Biochemistry, 2023
The present work studies the immunomodulatory potential of nervonic acid (NA) on the growth and proliferation of murine RAW264.7 macrophages. The immunomodulatory effects of NA were assessed through the evaluation of nitric oxide (NO) levels, cytokine secretion, phagocytic activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)

Fatty acids, bioactive substances, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of Ankyropetalum spp., a novel source of nervonic acid

Grasas y Aceites, 2021
Ankyropetalum extracts were obtained by using two different extractors (Soxhlet and ultrasonic bath). The phenol, flavonoid, DPPH, FRAP, and antimicrobial activity properties of the extracts were investigated.

Metabolic Modulation Predicts Heart Failure Tests Performance [PDF]

, 2019
The metabolic changes that accompany changes in Cardiopulmonary testing (CPET) and heart failure biomarkers (HFbio) are not well known. We undertook metabolomic and lipidomic phenotyping of a cohort of heart failure (HF) patients and utilized Multiple ...

Localization of nervonic acid β-oxidation in human and rodent peroxisomes: impaired oxidation in Zellweger syndrome and X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy

Journal of Lipid Research, 1998
Studies with purified subcellular organelles from rat liver indicate that nervonic acid (C24:1) is β-oxidized preferentially in peroxisomes. Lack of effect by etomoxir, inhibitor of mitochondrial β-oxidation, on β-oxidation of lignoceric acid (C24:0), a ...

Influence of the sebaceous gland density on the stratum corneum lipidome [PDF]

, 2018
The skin surface lipids (SSL) result from the blending of sebaceous and epidermal lipids, which derive from the sebaceous gland (SG) secretion and the permeability barrier of the stratum corneum (SC), respectively.
