Activation of the NOD-like receptor pyrin-domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation in metabolic diseases such as obesity. Mechanistic studies have shown that β-hydroxybutyrate (OHB) attenuates activation of NLRP3, but human data are limited. In a

The turnover of ketone bodies and acetate was evaluated as well from the disappearance rate of (3-14C)acetoacetate or (1-14C)acetate respectively as from the conversion of FFA into these metabolites in normal weight and obese overnight-fasted and in obese long-term starved patients. The

The blood patterns of acetoacetate (AA), 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-HB), free fatty acids, and glycerol were registered after intravenous injection of insulin or glucose in seven obese persons. In each individual investigated the study with insulin was carried out first and that with glucose 2 days later.

To elucidate the relationship between carnitine metabolism and plasma ketone body concentrations in moderately obese patients with mild glucose intolerance, the ketone body and carnitine levels in the basal state were determined in 72 obese patients: 20 with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), 29 with

Ketogenic diets have been associated with reductions in free-living physical activity, a response that can be counterproductive in individuals trying to lose weight. To explore whether popular low-carbohydrate diets might impact the desire to exercise by raising blood ketone concentrations, fatigue

The purpose of these studies was to determine if the utilization of ketone bodies as a carbon source for lipogenesis could account for the decreased ketone body production by livers of obese Zucker rats, as well as contribute to the enhanced rates of fatty acid synthesis observed in these animals.

Obesity causes various physiological disorders between the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. Ketone bodies have a neuro-protective role and are strongly affected by obesity-related metabolic disorders. To clarify the effects of obesity on ketone body utilization in brain, we examined

Collagenase-isolated islets from obese hyperglycemic mice were used to study the effects of fatty acids and ketone bodies on insulin biosynthesis. The biosynthetic rate was quantitated as the incorporation of 3H-leucine into proinsulin and insulin, which were separated from the crude islet

Metformin has been proposed as a potential drug treatment to reduce liver steatosis. Therefore, the study of the effects of in vivo metformin administration, on hepatic fat metabolism in the isolated perfused liver is of great interest. We have studied the effects of in vivo metformin treatment of

Obesity is a proven risk factor for neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer's disease (AD). Accumulating evidences suggested that nutritional interventions provide potential for prevention and treatment of AD. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary treatment of obese rats with

This study evaluated the effects of oral sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) supplementation on ammonium (NH4+) nitrogen (N) and urea N excretion and on ketone bodies during the metabolic acidosis of a very low energy protein diet. Ten healthy obese female subjects (BMI, 38.4 +/- 1.5 kg/m2;weight, 100 +/- 4

Background: Recently, new concepts about obesity and normal weight subtypes with metabolic conditions are rising and ketone bodies are emerging as a significant indicator of metabolic health. This study aimed to find a relationship

Raspberry ketone (RK)-an aromatic compound found mostly in red raspberries (Rubus idaeus) is widely used as an over the counter product for weight loss. The present study was conducted to determine adverse effects associated with RK in obese and health-compromised obese mice. Two sets of

The kinetics of acetoacetate (A) and beta-hydroxybutyrate (B) have been studied following the injection as a pulse or continued infusion of [3-14C]acetoacetate (A*) or [14C]beta-hydroxybutyrate (B*) into six newly diagnosed, untreated, ketotic diabetic patients, ten obese subjects in the
