Transfer of glucose hydrogens via acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA, and NADPH to fatty acids during de novo lipogenesis

Deuterated water (2H2O) is widely used for measuring de novo lipogenesis (DNL). 2H is incorporated into fatty acids via exchange between body water and the hydrogens of acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA, and NADPH. Previous studies concluded that these exchanges are incomplete; therefore, fatty acid 2H enrich...
