The eukaryotic organelle, the “peroxisome”, is now established as a key player in vital cellular processes. Peroxisomes are involved in the biosynthesis of membrane phospholipids, fatty acid ...

Fatty acids are the building blocks of the fat in our bodies and in the food we eat. During digestion, the body breaks down fats into fatty acids, which can then be absorbed into the blood. Fatty acid ...

This review explores the crosstalk between cellular metabolic pathways including glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid metabolism, and the immune processes that govern cardiac aging. With ...

Objective Increased de novo fatty acid (FA) synthesis and cholesterol biosynthesis have been independently described in many tumour types, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Conclusion Our ...

In steady-state 3T3-L1 adipocytes, AQP7 is localized at the periphery of the nucleus. When lipolysis is required, epinephrine production increases and elevates intracellular levels of cyclic AMP ...
