Abstract

Les troubles d’oxydation des acides gras à chaîne longue (TOAG-CL) sont des maladies héréditaires rares. Les TOAG-CL font en sorte que le corps a de la difficulté à convertir les acides gras en énergie, ce qui peut mener à des symptômes tels qu’un taux de sucre sanguin trop bas, des douleurs ou des faiblesses musculaires, et des problèmes cardiaques. Les TOAG-CL sont diagnostiqués à l’aide de tests de dépistage chez les nouveau-nés, ou plus tard, suite à des symptômes. On les traite avec un régime spécialisé et en évitant le jeûne, surtout quand la personne atteinte est malade. Une personne avec un TOAG-CL peut mener une vie bien remplie, saine et active en apportant des changements à son style de vie, en étroite coordination et avec le soutien de son équipe de soins de santé. Table des matières: • Métabolisme des acides gras • Épidémiologie et génétique • Présentation clinique • Diagnostic • Consultation génétique, dépistage néonatal et soutien aux patients

Abstract

Long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders (LC-FAODs) are rare, inherited conditions. With an LC-FAOD, the body has trouble breaking down fat for energy, which can lead to symptoms such as low blood sugars, muscle pain/weakness, and heart problems. LC-FAODs are diagnosed by newborn screening or symptoms later in life. Management includes a specialized nutrition plan, and prevention of fasting, especially during illness. A person with an LC-FAOD can live a full, active and healthy life with lifestyle changes and close coordination with, and support from, an expert healthcare team. Table of Contents: • Fats and fatty acids • Fatty acids for energy • Long-chain fatty acid oxidation disorders • Diagnosis • Genetic testing • Living with an LC-FAOD • Monitoring • What can I do to help my child? • Genetic counseling • How many people are affected? • Who’s who?

Abstract

In dit boek vertelt de auteur hoe je kunt uitzoeken welk stofwisselingstype je bent en welke voeding jouw type nodig heeft. In tegenstelling tot wat heel wat beroemde (en beperkende) diëten (zoals het keto- of proteïnedieet) beweren, heeft elk lichaam eiwitten, koolhydraten en vetten nodig, al verschillen de verhoudingen per type. ‘Gezonde’ voeding is niet voor iedereen gezond en al zeker niet de vegetarische levensstijl. En te veel rauwkost of ‘raw food’ schaadt meer dan het baat.

Abstract

Biochemistry of Lipids, Lipoproteins and Membranes, Seventh Edition serves as a comprehensive, general reference book for scientists and students studying lipids, lipoproteins and membranes. Here, across 19 chapters, leaders in the field summarize fundamental concepts, recent research developments, data analysis, and implications for human disease and intervention. Topics discussed include lipid biology in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, fatty acid synthesis, desaturation and elongation, and pathways leading to synthesis of complex phospholipids, sphingolipids and their structural variants. Chapters also examine how bioactive lipids are involved in cell signaling, with an emphasis on disease implications and pathological consequences. As the field advances, each chapter in this new edition has been fully revised to address emerging topics, with all-new coverage of lipid droplets and their role as regulatory organelles for energy homeostasis, as well as their relationship to obesity, liver disease and diabetes. Evolving research in fatty acid handling and storage in eukaryotes is also discussed in-depth, with new sections addressing fatty acid uptake, activation and lipolysis.

Abstract

Drug metabolism comprises the identification, characterization, and quantification of the chemicals or compounds produced in an animal or human upon administration of a drug. Research practices not only require the chemical structure but also aim to determine the pharmacological activities and/or toxicity of these compounds. This is first performed in animals, as studies attempt to identify and quantify metabolites, and later in humans, with care to further characterize metabolites that are either unique to or produced disproportionately in humans compared to animals. Characterization includes the determination of enzyme systems or other biological mechanisms that produce each identified metabolite; this information is used to predict potential drug-drug interactions with other compounds that increase or decrease metabolite formation and sources of biological variability in response or toxicity with varying patient genetics, which affect CYP isoform expression. This book's purpose is to provide some understanding of the biology and current technology applied in the field of drug metabolism.

Abstract

The field of endocrinology and metabolism represents a complex and multifaceted specialty in medicine that may be affected by different factors. This book presents an overview of several endocrine-disrupting chemicals, especially those affecting the reproductive system and adipose tissue. It also discusses the endocrine and metabolic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the pathogenesis of lipedema.
