Oxidation of Branched-Chain Fatty Acids
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000030MetabolicIn the majority of organisms, fatty acid degradation occurs mostly through the beta-oxidation cycle. In plants, this cycle only happens in the peroxisome, while in mammals this cycle happens in both the peroxisomes and mitochondria. Unfo...
Ibandronate Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000079Drug actionThe action of ibandronate on bone tissue is based partly on its affinity for hydroxyapatite, which is part of the mineral matrix of bone. Nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (such as pamidronate, alendronate, risedronate, ibandronate and...
