Ketogenic Nutrition in Combination With PPARα Activation Induced Metabolic Failure and Exacerbated Muscle Weakness in Septic Mice. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Suppression of the peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor alpha (PPARα) has been related to poor outcomes in sepsis and may compromise ketogenesis during critical illness. Infusion of 3‐hydroxybutyrate (3HB) was shown to attenuate muscle weakness in septic mice.

Diversity of ThDP-Dependent Enzymes Forming Chiral Tertiary Alcohols. [PDF]
Chiral tertiary alcohols are widespread in nature and bioactive compounds; however, their asymmetric synthesis faces several challenges. This review outlines the toolbox of ThDP‐dependent enzymes able to produce tertiary alcohols through the formation of CC bond formation using ketones as acceptor substrates. Herein, the substrate scope, the diversity

Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase deficiency in five siblings with variable phenotypes, including fulminant fatal liver failure despite good engraftment of transplanted liver. [PDF]
Abstract Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) deficiency can, in one of its forms, be a rare cause of acute liver failure. Clinical presentation is nonspecific. Biochemical findings can reflect metabolic block, but vary depending on patient and his condition. Consensus treatment guidelines do not exist.

Metabolic Reprogramming in Stromal and Immune Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis: Therapeutic Possibilities. [PDF]
Immune cells and stromal cells undergo metabolic reprogramming in both rheumatoid and osteoarthritis. This review summarises current evidence on the metabolic changes within and the crosstalk between immune and stromal cells in these diseases. In addition, we explore the therapeutic potential of targeting metabolic processes for the treatment of ...

Advances of SIRT4 in cancer metabolism and therapy
Abstract The Sirtuins family consists of SIRT1‐SIRT7, which belong to class III of the histone deacetylases, a family of highly conserved NAD (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide)‐dependent enzymes expressed in the nucleus, cytoplasm, and mitochondria.

Longyan City in Fujian Province is one of China’s top‐quality tobacco‐producing areas and plays an essential role in local economic development. To determine the correlation between heavy metal content in tobacco leaves and soil factors, soil physical and chemical properties and heavy metal contents of lead, cadmium, and copper in tobacco leaves were ...

Characterization and epitope mapping of human monoclonal antibodies to PDC-E2, the immunodominant autoantigen of primary biliary cirrhosis [PDF]
Further to define the epitopes of PDC-E2, the major autoantigen in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC), we have developed and characterized five human monoclonal antibodies. These antibodies were derived by fusing a regional hepatic lymph node from a patient

Abstract Glycine cleavage system (GCS) plays a central role in one‐carbon (C1) metabolism and receives increasing interest as a core part of the recently proposed reductive glycine pathway (rGlyP) for assimilation of CO2 and formate. Despite decades of research, GCS has not yet been well understood and kinetic data are barely available.

Membrane electrochemical reactors (MER) for NADH regeneration in HLADH-catalysed synthesis: comparison of effectiveness [PDF]
Two membrane electrochemical reactors(MER) were designed and applied to HLADH-catalysed reduction of cyclohexanone to cyclohexanol. The regeneration of the cofactor NADH was ensured electrochemically, using either methyl viologen or a rhodium complex as
