Background Diet Influences TMAO Concentrations Associated with Red Meat Intake without Influencing Apparent Hepatic TMAO-Related Activity in a Porcine Model [PDF]
Red meat has been associated with an increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, possibly through gut microbial-derived trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO).

TMAO: Protecting proteins from feeling the heat [PDF]
Osmolytes are ubiquitous in the cell and play an important role in controlling protein stability under stress. The natural osmolyte trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is used by marine animals to counteract the effect of pressure denaturation at large depths.

Protein Stability in TMAO and Mixed Urea–TMAO Solutions
Osmolytes are essential for cellular function under ubiquitous osmotic stress. Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is one such osmolyte that has gained remarkable attention due to its protein-protective ability against urea. This Review aims at providing a detailed account of recent theoretical and experimental developments in characterizing the structural ...

Identification and characterization of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) demethylase and TMAO permease in Methylocella silvestris BL2. [PDF]
Methylocella silvestris, an alphaproteobacterium isolated from a forest soil, can grow on trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) as a sole nitrogen source; however, the molecular and biochemical mechanisms underpinning its growth remain unknown. Marker-exchange mutagenesis enabled the identification of several genes involved in TMAO metabolism, including ...

Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) increased aquaporin-2 expression in spontaneously hypertensive rats
Recent evidence suggests that elevated plasma levels of Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) can prolong the duration of elevated blood pressure in rats. The purpose of this study was to investigate the plasma TMAO level in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats (SHR)

Trimethylamine N-Oxide (TMAO) as a Biomarker
The interaction between diet, microbiome, and noncommunicable disease onset is gaining growing attention. The trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is a gut microbiota derivative that has been suggested as a potential regulator of human health, especially (but not exclusively) for its association with cardiovascular diseases. It derives from the trimethylamine

Effect of urea and tmao on lipid bilayers [PDF]
Abstract We study the effect of the osmolytes, Urea and trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) on POPE (1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphoethanolamine) lipid membranes using SAXS/WAXS and DSC. Their antagonist effect is observed with TMAO stabilizing and Urea destabilizing the lipid bilayer, as seen by others in earlier researches.
