Hepatic Fatty Acid Oxidation Restrains Systemic Catabolism during Starvation
The liver is critical for maintaining systemic energy balance during starvation. To understand the role of hepatic fatty acid β-oxidation on this process, we generated mice with a liver-specific knockout of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (Cpt2L−/−), an obligate step in mitochondrial long-chain fat...
