什么是植酸？

Phytanic acid is a metabolite of the chlorophyll molecule and is converted from phytol, the side chain of chlorophyll.植烷酸是叶绿素分子的代谢产物，并从叶绿素的侧链植物醇转化而来。 It is a saturated 20-carbon branched-chain fatty acid that can only be obtained from dietary sources.它是饱和的3碳支链脂肪酸，只能从饮食中获取。 Phytanic acid oxidation (Alpha oxidation) occurs in the peroxisomes of humans.植酸氧化（α氧化）发生在人类的过氧化物酶体中。 The presence of phytanic acid in tissues and plasma has been considered diagnostic of heredopathia atactica polyneuritiformis.组织和血浆中植酸的存在已被认为是无定形多发性神经病的诊断。 Phytanic acid induced the adipocyte differentiation of 3T1-L2 cells in culture as assessed by accumulation of lipid droplets and induction of the aP15 mRNA marker.通过脂滴的积累和aPXNUMX mRNA标记的诱导评估，植酸可诱导培养物中XNUMXTXNUMX-LXNUMX细胞的脂肪细胞分化。 In two Norwegian patients, serum phytanic acid has been brought down to normal levels and one of them has been followed for XNUMX years.在两名挪威患者中，血清植酸水平已降至正常水平，其中一位已被随访XNUMX年。
