Different tissues respond to excess metabolic fuels in different ways. Thus, excess glucose and lipid supplies in the liver favour the partitioning of lipids away from oxidative pathways in the ...

As an assist to his students back in 1960, microbiologist Donald Nicholson sketched out a big chart of metabolic pathways; he thought it would help them to have it pinned up on a wall for ready ...

All metabolic pathways have to be regulated and controlled to stop the build-up of an end product that isn’t needed. The cell can control a metabolic pathway by the presence or absence of a ...

Lipid metabolism has emerged as a central player in the progression and therapy resistance of breast cancer, particularly the aggressive subtype ...

An advanced study of the structure and properties of proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and lipids, including kinetics and mechanisms of enzyme action and detailed description of metabolic ...

indicated that certain metabolic pathways are differentially active at specific moments, said Heinemann. The next step was to find out which processes inside the cell created this rhythm. In a study ...

When medium-chain fatty acids are present, the cells' metabolism shifts toward the SOG and methionine pathways. They also ...

"We turned to the metabolic pathways that govern T cell functioning to identify mechanisms that can help them thrive in ...

New research at Lund University shows that the biological parents' genes affect the child's insulin function and capacity to regulate blood sugar levels and blood lipids in different ways.
