According to scientists in the United States, "We previously showed that a fraction of the acetyls used to synthesize malonyl-CoA in rat heart derives from partial peroxisomal oxidation of very long and long-chain fatty acids. The ¹³C labeling ratio (malonylCoA)/(acetyl moiety of citrate) was >1.0 with ¹³C-fatty acids, which yields [¹³C] acetyl-CoA in...
