3-Hydroxybutyric Acid (beta-Hydroxybutyric Acid)

10/01/1993 - "To avoid the potential confounding effect of increased ketone levels (beta-hydroxybutyrate was approximately 170% higher in the pregnant rats), experiments were repeated in the nonfasting state when ketosis was eliminated in both groups. "
01/01/2010 - "The first objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between concentrations of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) in milk and blood to assess the reliability of the BHBA concentrations in milk measured by a semi quantitative keto-test paper to detect subclinical ketosis (SCK) in 50 fresh high-producing Iranian Holstein cows in Golestan Province, Iran. "
04/28/2001 - "This study was to establish enzyme-rate method for determining serum beta-hydroxybutyric acid, and to discuss its meaning in diabetes ketosis acidism. "
02/01/1998 - "The objective of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of five ketone tests for use with milk to detect subclinical ketosis [defined as > 1200 mumol of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA)/L of blood] in dairy cows. "
04/01/1990 - "The effect of D-(-)-beta-hydroxybutyrate, at concentrations commonly achieved during ketoacidosis in humans (10 mmol/l), on human fat cell lipolysis in vitro was the aim of this study. "

06/01/2000 - "There was a significant increase in beta-hydroxybutyrate in November only, indicating that arctic foxes are capable of protein conservation during starvation."
01/15/1998 - "In conclusion, beta-hydroxybutyrate generated in starvation is associated with increased levels of HbF. "
07/01/1996 - "Likewise, the infusion of SAD delayed the rise in free fatty acid and beta-hydroxybutyrate plasma concentration occurring during starvation. "
12/01/1992 - "In 4-day-old chick, plasma concentration of 3-hydroxybutyrate increased about 9-fold after 24 h starvation, while in 9-day-old chick this parameter increased about 23-fold in the same conditions. "
07/01/1987 - "beta-Hydroxybutyrate concentrations increased as starvation proceeded and were highest in patients receiving the 15.6% BCAA solution. "

01/01/2011 - "After KD-feeding, increased plasma D-beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) levels appear to be important for protection against seizures. "
05/01/2002 - "However, there was not a significant positive correlation (P>0.10) between plasma beta hydroxybutyrate and latency to seizure, suggesting that beta hydroxybutyrate may be indirectly involved in the antiseizure effects of the KD. "
05/01/2002 - "KD-fed rats administered an acute dose of MA had lower (P<0.01) levels of beta hydroxybutyrate in plasma and shorter latency to PTZ-induced seizures compared with control KD-fed rats. "
01/01/2002 - "beta-Hydroxybutyrate values displayed the inverse, in that values were significantly higher (p < 0.01) in all KA groups compared with pretreatment controls during seizure activity. "
12/01/2000 - "Seizure control correlates with blood beta-hydroxybutyrate levels and is more likely when blood beta-hydroxybutyrate levels are greater than 4 mmo/L. "

12/01/1993 - "The purpose of this study was to determine if the ketone body beta-hydroxybutyrate (beta-HBA) is a useful positive marker for sudden deaths in chronic alcoholics, thought to be due to hypoglycemia. "
11/01/2007 - "Three h before the occurrence of hypoglycemia, he had had 10 times higher beta-hydroxybutyrate levels than his brother, who showed no signs of hypoglycemia. "
08/01/2002 - "Oral beta-hydroxybutyrate supplementation in two patients with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia: monitoring of beta-hydroxybutyrate levels in blood and cerebrospinal fluid, and in the brain by in vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy."
09/05/2014 - "BAD-deficient mice and fasting have several common functional roles in seizures, beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) uptake in brain and alteration in counterregulatory hormonal regulation during hypoglycemia. "
02/01/1999 - "Administration of VPA to rats caused various metabolic effects including hypoglycemia, hyperammonemia and decreased beta-hydroxybutyrate concentration. "

03/01/1997 - "This study examined the effect of long-term intracerebroventricular (ICV) infusion of beta-hydroxybutyrate (beta HB) on food intake, diet selection, body weight, and body composition in rats. "
11/01/1999 - "ketogenic ratio, body weight, age at diet onset and beta-hydroxybutyrate in rats. "
03/01/1997 - "ICV beta-hydroxybutyrate: effects on food intake, body composition, and body weight in rats."
08/01/1991 - "Simultaneous infusion of either saline or beta-hydroxybutyrate (3 mg min-1 kg-1 body weight) was administered in a single-blind fashion, in random order. "
03/01/1989 - "Thus, 3-hydroxybutyrate is a potential signal in the regulation of body weight. "
