Mechanisms Mediating the Regulation of Peroxisomal Fatty Acid Beta-Oxidation by PPARα
Abstract In mammalian cells, two cellular organelles, mitochondria and peroxisomes, share the ability to degrade fatty acid chains. Although each…
Peroxisomal ABC Transporters: An Update
Abstract ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters constitute one of the largest superfamilies of conserved proteins from bacteria to mammals. In humans,…
Peroxisome Metabolism in Cancer
Abstract Peroxisomes are metabolic organelles involved in lipid metabolism and cellular redox balance. Peroxisomal function is central to fatty acid…
