Associations between fatty acid oxidation, hepatic mitochondrial function, and plasma acylcarnitine levels in mice

Abstract Background The 4-thia fatty acid tetradecylthiopropionic acid (TTP) is known to inhibit mitochondrial β-oxidation, and can be used as chemically induced hepatic steatosis-model in rodents, while 3-thia fatty acid tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA) stimulates fatty acid oxidation through activa...
