Characterization of Palmitic Acid Induced Lipotoxicity in Schwann Cells
… study examines key cellular events induced by palmitic acid lipotoxicity (PA-LTx) in Schwann cells cultured in euglycemic and hyperglycemic conditions. The data show that immortalized Schwann cell (iSC), as well as primary Schwann cell (pSC) cultures exposed to elevated levels of PA induced an …

Palmitic Acid Activation of Dendritic Cells: Implications for Type 2 Diabetes
… are exposed to high levels of saturated fatty acids. Increased saturated fatty acid levels derived from high fat diets are strongly associated with chronic adipose tissue inflammation. Palmitic acid, the most abundant of saturated fatty acids, is pro-inflammatory and has been linked to insulin …

The Acute and Chronic Effects of Palmitic Acid-Rich Triacylglycerols on Cardiovascular Risk
… differences in the triacylglycerol structure of palmitic acid-rich fats influence lipid metabolism and glucose/insulin homeostasis. A review of the literature and acute test meal and chronic feeding studies were conducted in human subjects. Postprandial changes in plasma lipids, …

Palmitoyl-acyl Carrier Protein Thioesterase in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.): Biochemical and Molecular Characterization of a Major Mechanism for the Regulation of Palmitic Acid Content
The relatively high level of palmitic acid (22 mol%) in cottonseeds may be due in part to the activity of a palmitoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) thioesterase (PATE). In embryo extracts, PATE activity was highest at the maximum rate of reserve accumulation (oil and protein). The cotton FatB mRNA …

The regulation of ceramide content and insulin resistance in skeletal muscle
… It is highly likely that the high plasma fatty acid levels provoke the condition in the obese and insulin resistant state of type 2 DM. Hence, the purpose of this study was to determine if a high concentration of palmitic acid causes insulin resistance and how ceramide content is regulated under …

The effects of dietary lipid and rumen protected Capsicum oleoresin on plasma glucose and insulin kinetics, and feed efficiency in finishing beef cattle
… Capsicum oleoresin at 0 (C-) or 77 (C+) mg/d and palmitic acid to increase dietary ether extract concentrations from 3.46% (P-) to 7.63% (P+) on a DM basis. The base diet consisted of barley silage (6.93%; DM basis), barley grain (82.12%), mineral (5.83%), urea (0.32%), and beet pulp (5.8%). …

Sulfate and Hydroxide Supported on Zirconium Oxide Catalysts for Biodiesel Production
… Zirconium oxide impregnation with sulfuric acid produced acidic solid catalysts. It was determined that impregnation and calcination at 550<sup>o</sup>C (SO₄/ZrO₂-550<sup>o</sup>C) produced the best catalyst for palmitic acid esterification with 10 wt % as the optimum concentration in …

Mechanisms of Western-Diet Induced Endothelial Stiffening: Endothelial CD36 and Long-Chain Fatty Acids
… vivo is mimicked by exposure to saturated LCFA palmitic acid in vitro, a phenomenon that is dependent on CD36. Activation of CD36 by non-lipid ligands, however, does not elicit stiffening. To elucidate how lipids elicit stiffening, we focused on RhoA and its association with RhoGDI1, which …

Mechanistic Modeling of Biodiesel Production via Heterogeneous Catalysis
… homogeneous basic catalysis, heterogeneous acid catalysis has been investigated recently due to its ability to convert cheaper but high free fatty acid content oils such as waste vegetable oil while decreasing production cost. In this work, the esterification of free fatty acid over sulfated …

Allelopathic effect of imperata cylindrica (L.) beauv. extracts on the germination of weeds
… presence of allelochemicals including phenolic acid, fatty acids, and organosilicon compounds. Although phenolic acids [butyl phenol, phenyl 3-methylbut-2-enoate, p-coumaric acid, and p-coumaric acid methyl ester], fatty acids [phytol, methyl isohexadecanoate, palmitic acid, palmitic acid methyl …

Effect of Long Chain Fatty Acids on Anaerobic Digestion of Municiapal Sewage Sludge in Completely Mixed Reactors
… However, excessive addition of long chain fatty acid, the major content of FOG, has been reported to have inhibitory effects on the anaerobic digestion process and to cause operational challenges. In this study, high purity long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) including linoleic acid, oleic acid, and a …

Lipid Binding in Worked Wheat Flour Doughs
… glyceryl tri (palmitate-1-'4c) and palmitic acid- 1-14C,: has been studied by the use of liquid scintillation counting. The use of these labelled compounds revealed a difference in the behaviour of the free fatty acids compared with the triglycerides. Whereas triolein and tripalmitin …

Effect of Feeding Regimen and Age on Lipid Metabolism in Broiler Breeder Hens and Progeny
… trial, the rate of yolk absorption and fatty acid profiles in the yolk were compared among 28, 35, and 49wk old hens. The results revealed that the rate of yolk absorption was higher, but the absolute amount of fatty acids absorbed was lower in young hens than in the old hens. The second trial …
