Glycerokinase activity in human brown adipose tissue.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is known to be responsible for heat production in newborn and adult hibernating mammals. In rats and mice, BAT has been demonstrated to possess a much higher glycerokinase activity than white adipose tissue (WAT). It has been speculated that this high activity may cause the futile cycle of triglyceride breakdown and resynthesis to be activated, thus contributing to he...
متن کاملUrsodeoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and 7-ketolithocholic acid are primary bile acids of the guinea pig.
Guinea pig gallbladder bile contains chenodeoxycholic acid (62 +/- 5%), ursodeoxycholic acid (8 +/- 5%), and 7-ketolithocholic acid (30 +/- 5%). All three bile acids became labeled to the same specific activity within 30 min after [3H]cholesterol was injected into bile fistula guinea pigs. When a mixture of [3H]ursodeoxycholic acid and [14C]chenodeoxycholic acid was infused into another bile fi...
متن کاملNew highly toxic bile acids derived from deoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid.
We have prepared a new panel of 23 BA derivatives of DCA, chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) and lithocholic acid (LCA) in order to study the effect of dual substitution with 3-azido and 24-amidation, features individually associated with cytotoxicity in our previous work. The effect of the compounds on cell viability of HT-1080 and Caco-2 was studied using the 3-[4,5-dimethylthizol-2-yl]-2,5-dipheny...
متن کاملFatty acid synthesis by human adipose tissue.
The effect of age and nutritional status on the synthesis of fatty acids from a variety of labeled substrates by human adipose tissue in vitro was investigated. The results of this study clearly demonstrate that, although human adipose tissue is able to oxidize glucose to CO2, its ability to incorporate glucose-carbon into long chain fatty acids is negligible. Although the utilization of acetat...
متن کاملFatty Acid Synthesis in Human Adipose Tissue*
The concentration of enzymes required for fatty acid synthesis was considerably less in extracts prepared from human omental adipose tissue than from rat epididymal fat. Overall rates of synthesis as measured by the incorporation of radioactive precursors into fatty acids were also much lower in human adipose tissue. The most striking difference was found with citrate-1,5-W, human adipose tissu...
