Dietary chia seed (Salvia hispanica L.) rich in a-linolenic acid improves adiposity and normalises hypertriacylglycerolaemia and insulin resistance in dyslipaemic rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The present study investigates the benefits of the dietary intake of chia seed (Salvia hispanica L.) rich in α-linolenic acid and fibre upon dyslipidaemia and insulin resistance (IR), induced by intake of a sucrose-rich (62.5 %) diet (SRD).

Exploring the Therapeutic Effects of the ZhiZhu Pill on Rats with Chronic Transmission Constipation Based on Intestinal Microbiota and Metabolomics

open access: yesNatural Product Communications
Aim The effects of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. (Baizhu) and Citrus aurantium L. (Zhishi) (ZhiZhu pill, ZZP) on the defecation function, intestinal bacteria, and short-chain fatty acid metabolism of slow transit constipation (STC) rats were observed,

Gating mechanism of elongating β-ketoacyl-ACP synthases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Carbon-carbon bond forming reactions are essential transformations in natural product biosynthesis. During de novo fatty acid and polyketide biosynthesis, β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthases (KS), catalyze this process via a decarboxylative ...

Three classes of ligands each bind to distinct sites on the orphan G protein-coupled receptor GPR84 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Medium chain fatty acids can activate the pro-inflammatory receptor GPR84 but so also can molecules related to 3,3′-diindolylmethane. 3,3′-Diindolylmethane and decanoic acid acted as strong positive allosteric modulators of the function of each other and

Specificity of Mucor miehei lipase on methyl ester substrates

open access: yesGrasas y Aceites, 1993
Fatty acid methyl esters constitute a good substrate for the characterization of lipase typospecificity. In the present work, the hydrolytic action of lipase from Mucor miehei was studied. It was demonstrated that this lipase preferentially catalyses the

A short chain fatty acid–centric view of Clostridioides difficile pathogenesis

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Clostridioides difficile is an opportunistic diarrheal pathogen responsible for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. A disrupted (dysbiotic) gut microbiome, commonly engendered by antibiotic treatment, is the primary risk factor for C ...

Facile acylation of glycerophosphocholine catalyzed by trifluoroacetic anhydride.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1981
A simplified procedure for the synthesis of short acyl chain phosphatidylcholines is described. A mixed fatty acid-trifluoroacetic anhydride is used to acylate sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (GPC) which has been dissolved in trifluoroacetic acid.
