Six different chiral and achiral alkane dicarboxylic C4-acids, i.e. succinic acid (H2SUC), dl-2-methylsuccinic acid (H2MS), 2,3-dimethylsuccinic acid (H2DMS) and aspartic acid (d-, l- and dl-H2ASP), were used to obtain Ce(iv)-MOFs via microwave assisted reactions. In water-based syntheses, MOFs with three

In hyperinsulinemic states including obesity and T2DM, overproduction of fatty acid and triglyceride contributes to steatosis of the liver, hyperlipidemia and hepatic insulin resistance. This effect is mediated in part by the transcriptional regulator sterol responsive element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c)
