PDHA2, a testis‐specific subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase, is required for the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl‐CoA. Its absence results in decreased acetyl‐CoA and precursors for metabolites and energy during spermatogenesis. This results in decreased histone acetylation, defective chromosome structure and moderately reduced crossovers, ultimately ...

Metabolomic signature of type 1 diabetes-induced sensory loss and nerve damage in diabetic neuropathy [PDF]
Diabetic-induced peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a diabetic late complication. The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of nerve damage & sensory loss remain largely unclear. Recently, alterations in metabolic flux have gained attention a basis for organ damage in diabetes; however, peripheral sensory neurons have not been adequately ...

Multi‐Omics Reveal the Metabolic Changes in Cumulus Cells During Aging
Fatty acid β‐oxidation was elevated in cumulus cells from older mice. Tryptophan metabolism in aged cumulus cells was active. Supplementing with 5‐HT could mitigate aging damage in oocytes. ABSTRACT Maternal age has been reported to impair oocyte quality.

Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a human neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive damage on the myelin band in the nervous system. MLD is caused by the impaired function of the lysosomal enzyme Arylsulphatase A (ARSA).

Is Amino-Acid Homochirality Due To Asymmetric Photolysis In Space? [PDF]
Amino acids occurring in proteins are, with rare exceptions, exclusively of the L-configuration. Among the many scenarios put forward to explain the origin of this chiral homogeneity (i.e., homochirality), one involves the asymmetric photolysis of amino acids present in space, triggered by circularly polarized UV radiation.

Abstract Objective A large proportion of pediatric epilepsies have an underlying genetic etiology. Limited studies have explored the efficacy of whole genome sequencing (WGS) in a clinical setting. Our academic–clinical center implemented clinical whole exome sequencing (WES) in 2014, then transitioned to WGS from 2015.

Arteriovenous Blood Metabolomics: A Readout of Intra-Tissue Metabostasis. [PDF]
The human circulatory system consists of arterial blood that delivers nutrients to tissues, and venous blood that removes the metabolic by-products. Although it is well established that arterial blood generally has higher concentrations of glucose and ...
