Fatty acid metabolism encompasses the coordinated enzymatic pathways that synthesise, transport and degrade long-chain carboxylic acids critical for cellular function and energy homeostasis. In de ...

Fatty acid synthase (FASN) is a multi-functional enzyme complex responsible for de novo synthesis of long-chain fatty acids. In many malignancies, enhanced expression and activity of FASN support ...

During lactation, the mammary gland undergoes significant structural and functional changes to produce milk, which is essential for neonatal nutrition and early immune development. Traditional ...

Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) play a crucial role in lipid biosynthesis. In a recent study, researchers identified a novel cleavage enzyme of SREBP-1c, a key player in fatty acid ...

While C13 fatty acid remains elusive in human plasma, new findings reveal its microbial origins, unique metabolic pathways, and potential as a biomarker for understanding how diet and the gut ...
