In rat hepatocytes, myristic acid occurs through lipogenesis, palmitic acid shortening and lauric acid elongation
The origin of myristic acid in mammalian cells and the regulation of its endogenous cellular low concentration are not known. Another intriguing question is the potential metabolic properties of endogenous myristic acid as compared with exogenous myristic acid. In the present paper, we hypothesised...
