Acetoacetate (AA) and 2-methylacetoacetate (MAA) are accumulated in metabolic disorders such as diabetes and isoleucinemia. Here we examine the mechanism of AA and MAA aerobic oxidation initiated by myoglobin (Mb)/H(2)O(2). We propose a chemiluminescent route involving a dioxetanone intermediate whose

Acetoacetic acid and R-3-hydroxy-butyric acid (BHB) are "ketone bodies", metabolites produced during the ketogenic diet. We discovered that they inhibit in the submicromolar-micromolar range several carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) isoforms involved in relevant physiologic processes such as lipogenesis and
