Metabolite History 🌟Carnitine🌟 📜Picture the year 1905, amidst the depths of meat extracts, a remarkable discovery emerged – carnitine. Its name, derived from the Latin "carnis" for meat, hinted at its origins but barely scratched the surface of its significance. Initially observed in insects, this compound soon revealed itself as a crucial player in the intricate dance of metabolism, powering the conversion of fatty acids into energy in mammals, humans included. Fast forward to 1927, and the unveiling of carnitine's structure marked a pivotal moment in scientific history. It was as if a veil had been lifted, illuminating the path to deeper understanding. Carnitine's journey is one of resilience and adaptation, woven into the fabric of life itself. From its humble origins in insects, where it proved to be an essential nutrient, to its pivotal role in mammals, including humans, as a key player in utilizing fatty acids for energy, carnitine's importance spans across species and generations. Dive deeper, and you'll uncover the intricate interplay between biosynthesis and dietary uptake in maintaining our carnitine pool. While a quarter is synthesized de novo, primarily in the liver and kidneys, the rest is gleaned from our diet, particularly from red meats, fish, and dairy. But the story does not end there. Carnitine's journey takes us into the mitochondria, where it orchestrates the degradation of long-chain fatty acids through the intricate carnitine shuttle system. This process, akin to a well-choreographed ballet, ensures the efficient conversion of fatty acids into energy, powering the cellular machinery. Yet, carnitine's influence extends beyond the confines of metabolism. It casts its shadow upon the realm of gut microbiota and finds itself a crucial tool in diagnosing metabolic disorders in newborns, showcasing its versatility and importance in the intricate web of biological systems. Highlights: 🌟 powers conversion of fatty acids into energy 🌟 partly gleaned from our diet (red meats, fish, and dairy) 🌟 crucial tool in diagonising metabolic disorders in newborns As we unravel the mysteries of carnitine, we are reminded of the profound interconnectedness of life's intricate processes. Each discovery, each revelation, brings us closer to unlocking the secrets of health and disease, paving the way for a brighter, healthier future.

Our🌿Metabolite of the Month for August is Deoxycholic acid 🌿 a secondary bile acid first identified in human feces in 1911, later used in corticosteroid synthesis. DCA plays crucial roles in digestion, fat absorption, and gut health, but can also have harmful effects, such as promoting cancer and inflammatory diseases. Its levels are influenced by diet, with high-fat and animal-based diets increasing its concentration. DCA interacts with various receptors and impacts conditions like Alzheimer's disease and cancer through its effects on cell membranes and mitochondrial function. It also influences immune responses, with implications for diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease. Read more about its roles in digestive health, gut microbiome modulation and its potential applications in medical treatments and research in the first comment. #Metabolomics #Microbiome #LoveYourMetabolites#GutHealth
