Endocrinology. 2003 Jun;144(6):2404-8. In vitro inhibition of insulin-degrading enzyme by long-chain fatty acids and their coenzyme A thioesters. Hamel FG, Upward JL, Bennett RG. Insulin-degrading enzyme is responsible for initiating insulin degradation in cells, but little is known about the factors controlling its activity. Because obesity and high levels of free fatty acids decrease insulin [...]

Adv Shock Res. 1981;6:93-105. Essential fatty acid deficient rats: a new model for evaluating arachidonate metabolism in shock. Cook JA, Wise WC, Knapp DR, Halushka PV. Essential fatty acid deficient (EFAD) rats are significantly more resistant to the lethal effects of S. enteritidis endotoxin (20 mg/kg, IV) than normal control rats. Compared to endotoxin-treated normal [...]
