Abstract

The article discusses the paper "Fasting-Induced Myocardial Lipid Accumulation in Long-Chain Acyl-CoA Dehydrogenase Knockout Mice Is Accomplished by Impaired Left Ventricular Function," by Adrianus J. Bakermans, Tom R. Geraedts, Michel van Weeghel, and others. It states that the study sought to find out how fasting affects cardiac morphology, function, and triglyceride (TG) storage as a result of fatty acid B-oxidation (FAO) deficiency. Methodology and conclusions of the study are presented.
