Regulation of myocardial ketone body metabolism by the gut microbiota during nutrient deprivationPeter A Crawford
Center for Genome Sciences and Department of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, MO 63108, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 106:11276-81. 2009..Together, these results illustrate benefits provided by the gut microbiota during periods of nutrient deprivation, and emphasize the importance of further exploring the relationship between gut microbes and cardiovascular health...
Low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets, glucose homeostasis, and nonalcoholic fatty liver diseaseRebecca C Schugar
Department of Medicine, Center for Cardiovascular Research, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri, USA
Curr Opin Clin Nutr Metab Care 15:374-80. 2012..This review focuses on the most recent findings that reveal the relationship between low-carbohydrate diets and NAFLD in rodent models and humans...
Adaptation of myocardial substrate metabolism to a ketogenic nutrient environmentAnna E Wentz
Department of Medicine, Washington University, St Louis, Missouri 63108, USA
