Announcing a new publication for Acta Materia Medica journal. In addition to regulating lipid biosynthesis and uptake, sterol ...
Lipids serve several important physiologic ... They are broken down in a beta-oxidation reaction and then enter the Kreb's cycle with subsequent production of adenosine triphosphate.
Lipids are absorbed from the intestine and ... Fatty acids are broken down by Beta oxidation. This occurs in the mitochondria and/or in peroxisomes to generate acetyl-CoA. The process is the ...

The primary modifications that are observed during tumor cell lipid metabolism are (1) biosynthesis followed by oxidation of FAs, (2) FA uptake, (3) storage and export of lipids, (4) lipolysis ...
Many different mechanisms have been suggested for the oxidative lipid fragmentations that ... as a product from the oxidation of LA. This Hydroxyhydroperoxide Mechanism generates HNE by beta-scission ...
Northwestern Medicine scientists have developed a promising approach to killing treatment-resistant cancer cells by ...
a protein that then goes on to inhibit an enzyme involved in fat metabolism. Those findings were published this month in the journal BBA Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids. Its role as a stress ...
They cranked up expression of lipoprotein lipase and other lipid metabolism genes. These lipid-utilizing microglia were supreme consumers of Aβ plaques and other neuronal debris, and spared AD mice ...
Researchers are seeking practical ways to promote the oxidation of lipids, which could help balance energy storage and consumption. A recent study has identified opioid growth factor receptor ...
