Hyperpolarized Carbon-13 MRI in Breast Cancer
One of the hallmarks of cancer is metabolic reprogramming, including high levels of aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect). Pyruvate is a product of glucose metabolism, and 13C-MR imaging of the metabolism of hyperpolarized (HP) [1-13C]pyruvate (HP 13C ...

Multivariate analysis of stable isotope data in the traceability process for birds=Análise multivariada em dados de isótopos estáveis no processo de rastreabilidade em aves [PDF]
Isotope analysis has proved to be an extremely important tool in the traceability process; however, statistical analyses of the results show discrepancies, as the data depend on and originate from several chemical elements such as carbon, hydrogen ...

Elucidation of Lignin and Polysaccharide Linkages in Wheat Straw by 2H/13C Isotopic Tracer
To elucidate chemical linkages between lignin and polysaccharides, the aqueous mixed solutions of coniferin-[α-13C], syringin-[α-13C], D-glucose-[6-2H], and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase inhibitor were injected into a living wheat stalk.

Inhibiting Glycine Decarboxylase Suppresses Pyruvate-to-Lactate Metabolism in Lung Cancer Cells
Glycine decarboxylase (GLDC) gene is frequently upregulated in various types of cancer including lung, prostate and brain. It catabolizes glycine to yield 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, an important substrate in one-carbon metabolism for nucleotide ...

Rastreability of bovine meat and bone meal using the stable isotope technique in egg production
The present study aimed to verify whether the inclusion of other ingredients in the diet of laying hens could interfere with the traceability of bovine meat and bone meal (BMBM) in eggs through stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis. Two hundred and
