Role of Aspartate in Immune Response and Mortality in a Polymicrobial Sepsis Model: Insights from Metabolomics and Transcriptomics [PDF]

open access: yesCells
Sepsis is a life-threatening syndrome characterized by dysregulated host responses to infection. In addition to early hyperinflammation, many patients develop profound immune suppression, and multiple targeted immunotherapies have failed to improve ...

l-Aspartate: An Essential Metabolite for Plant Growth and Stress Acclimation

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
L-aspartate (Asp) serves as a central building block, in addition to being a constituent of proteins, for many metabolic processes in most organisms, such as biosynthesis of other amino acids, nucleotides, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), the ...

Changes in alanine aminotransfearase, aspartate aminotransfearase in blasma, kidney and liver in rabbits treated with cadmium chloride [PDF]

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2006
The study was designed to investigate the subchronic toxic effect of cadmium chloride administered orally on alanine aminotransfearase (ALT), aspartate aminotransfearase (AST) activity and certain tissues in adult male rabbits.

Mitochondrial redox adaptations enable alternative aspartate synthesis in SDH-deficient cells

open access: yeseLife, 2023
The oxidative tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is a central mitochondrial pathway integrating catabolic conversions of NAD +to NADH and anabolic production of aspartate, a key amino acid for cell proliferation.

Amino Acid Oncometabolism and Immunomodulation of the Tumor Microenvironment in Lung Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
The observation that cancer acquires significant changes in its metabolism dates back nearly a century, to Otto Warburg noting that cancer cells preferentially utilize glycolysis even when there are no hypoxic conditions in the growth media.

Effects of glutamine, glutamate, and aspartate on intestinal barrier integrity and amino acid pool of the small intestine in piglets with normal or low energy diet

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Aspartate (asp), glutamate (glu), and glutamine (gln) are the major energy fuels for the small intestine, and it had been indicated in our previous study that the mix of these three amino acid supplementations could maintain intestinal energy homeostasis.

Rapid Identification of Secondary Structure and Binding Site Residues in an Intrinsically Disordered Protein Segment

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Mycobacterium tuberculosis harbours nine toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems of the MazEF family. MazEF TA modules are of immense importance due to the perceived role of the MazF toxin in M. tuberculosis persistence and disease.

The roles of organic acids in C4 photosynthesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Organic acids are involved in numerous metabolic pathways in all plants. The finding that some plants, known as C4 plants, have four-carbon dicarboxylic acids as the first product of carbon fixation showed these organic acids play essential roles as ...

Metabolic and Physiological Regulation of Aspartic Acid-Mediated Enhancement of Heat Stress Tolerance in Perennial Ryegrass

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Aspartate is the most critical amino acid in the aspartate metabolic pathway, which is associated with multiple metabolic pathways, such as protein synthesis, nucleotide metabolism, TCA cycle, glycolysis, and hormone biosynthesis. Aspartate also plays an
