ω-Hydroxylation of phytanic acid in rat liver microsomes

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
The 3-methyl-branched fatty acid phytanic acid is degraded by the peroxisomal α-oxidation route because the 3-methyl group blocks β-oxidation. In adult Refsum disease (ARD), peroxisomal α-oxidation is defective, which is caused by mutations in the gene ...

Cooking fish and drinking milk? Patterns in pottery use in the southeastern Baltic, 3300–2400 cal BC [PDF]

, 2015
yesA study of pottery vessel contents and use was undertaken in order to obtain information on food processed in Subneolithic and Neolithic vessels from Nida and Šventoji (3300–2400 cal BC).

ACOX2 deficiency: A disorder of bile acid synthesis with transaminase elevation, liver fibrosis, ataxia, and cognitive impairment [PDF]

, 2016
Acyl CoA Oxidase 2 (ACOX2) encodes branched-chain acyl-CoA oxidase, a peroxisomal enzyme believed to be involved in the metabolism of branched-chain fatty acids and bile acid intermediates. Deficiency of this enzyme has not been described previously.

The influence of the branched-chain fatty acids pristanic acid and Refsum disease-associated phytanic acid on mitochondrial functions and calcium regulation of hippocampal neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes

Neurobiology of Disease, 2009
Pristanic acid and phytanic acid are branched-chain fatty acids, which play an important role in diseases with peroxisomal impairment, like Refsum disease (MIM 266500), Zellwegers syndrome and α-methylacyl-CoA racemase deficiency (MIM 604489).

Phytanic acid and pristanic acid, branched-chain fatty acids associated with Refsum disease and other inherited peroxisomal disorders, mediate intracellular Ca2+ signaling through activation of free fatty acid receptor GPR40

Neurobiology of Disease, 2011
The accumulation of the two branched-chain fatty acids phytanic acid and pristanic acid is known to play an important role in several diseases with peroxisomal impairment, like Refsum disease, Zellweger syndrome and α-methylacyl-CoA racemase deficiency ...

Metabolism of phytol-U-14C and phytanic acid-U-14C in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1966
The metabolism of uniformly-labeled 14C-phytol, 14C-phytenic acid, and 14C-phytanic acid was studied in the rat. Conversion of both phytol and phytenic acid to phytanic acid was demonstrated.

Refsum disease: a defect in the alpha-oxidation of phytanic acid in peroxisomes

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
The oxidation of phytanic acid to pristanic acid was previously demonstrated to be deficient in monolayer cultures of skin fibroblasts (Herndon et al. 1969. J. Clin. Invest. 48: 1017-1032).

Neurological, Psychiatric, and Biochemical Aspects of Thiamine Deficiency in Children and Adults. [PDF]

, 2019
Thiamine (vitamin B1) is an essential nutrient that serves as a cofactor for a number of enzymes, mostly with mitochondrial localization. Some thiamine-dependent enzymes are involved in energy metabolism and biosynthesis of nucleic acids whereas others ...
