Fatty acid uptake by Caco-2 human intestinal cells
Journal of Lipid Research, 1996 The Caco-2 human enterocytic cell line was used to study the kinetics and mechanism of intestinal long chain fatty acid uptake. Initial rates of palmitate (16:0), oleate (18:1), and octanoate (8:0) uptake were determined for adherent cells at greater ...

Engineered Production of Short Chain Fatty Acid in Escherichia coli Using Fatty Acid Synthesis Pathway. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), such as butyric acid, have a broad range of applications in chemical and fuel industries. Worldwide demand of sustainable fuels and chemicals has encouraged researchers for microbial synthesis of SCFAs.

NIX-Mediated Mitophagy Promotes Effector Memory Formation in Antigen-Specific CD8+ T Cells
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Autophagy plays a critical role in the maintenance of immunological memory. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in autophagy-regulated effector memory formation in CD8+ T cells remain unclear. Here we show that deficiency in NIX-dependent

Regulation of short-chain fatty acid production [PDF]
Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2003 Short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) formation by intestinal bacteria is regulated by many different host, environmental, dietary and microbiological factors. In broad terms, however, substrate availability, bacterial species composition of the microbiota and intestinal transit time largely determine the amounts and types of SCFA that are produced in healthy ...

npj Parkinson's Disease, 2021 Animal models indicate that butyrate might reduce motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease. Some dietary fibers are butyrogenic, but in Parkinson’s disease patients their butyrate stimulating capacity is unknown.

Short-Chain Fatty Acid Receptors and Cardiovascular Function
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Increasing experimental and clinical evidence points toward a very important role for the gut microbiome and its associated metabolism in human health and disease, including in cardiovascular disorders. Free fatty acids (FFAs) are metabolically produced and utilized as energy substrates during almost every biological process in the human body. Contrary

BioTechniques, 2023 Butyrate and propionate represent two of three main short-chain fatty acids produced by the intestinal microbiota. In healthy populations, their levels are reportedly equimolar, whereas a deviation in their ratio has been observed in various diseased ...

Regulation of Inflammation by Short Chain Fatty Acids [PDF]
Nutrients, 2011 The short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) acetate (C2), propionate (C3) and butyrate (C4) are the main metabolic products of anaerobic bacteria fermentation in the intestine. In addition to their important role as fuel for intestinal epithelial cells, SCFAs modulate different processes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract such as electrolyte and water ...

De novo fatty acid synthesis and elongation of fatty acids by subcellular fractions of lung
Journal of Lipid Research, 1971 Fatty acid synthesis by subcellular fractions of rabbit lung was studied by measuring the incorporation of either radioactive acetyl coenzyme A or malonyl coenzyme A into long-chain fatty acids.
