Dietary Restriction of Amino Acids for Cancer Therapy [PDF]
Biosyntheses of proteins, nucleotides and fatty acids, are essential for the malignant proliferation and survival of cancer cells. Cumulating research findings show that amino acid restrictions are potential strategies for cancer interventions. Meanwhile, dietary strategies are popular among cancer patients.

Cardiomyocytes rely on specialised metabolism to meet the high energy demand of the heart. During heart development, metabolism matures and shifts from the predominant utilisation of glycolysis and glutamine oxidation towards lactate and fatty acid ...

Energy metabolism in skeletal muscle cells from donors with different body mass index
Obesity and physical inactivity have a profound impact on skeletal muscle metabolism. In the present work, we have investigated differences in protein expression and energy metabolism in primary human skeletal muscle cells established from lean donors ...

Metabolism of Fatty Acids and Glucose [PDF]
To the Editor: Apstein and Taegtmeyer1 note that increased glycolytic substrate from glucose-insulin-potassium treatment has been shown to improve outcome in acute ischemic conditions and that this treatment attenuates the ischemia-induced decrease in ATP. One mechanism for this improvement should be due to the fact that in the metabolism of glucose,

Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA, ω-3) is an antioxidant that reduces triglyceride (TG) levels in blood, a component of cell membranes and a precursor compound of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, ω-3) and eicosatrienoic acid (DHA, ω-3).

Reprogramming of fatty acid metabolism in cancer
A common feature of cancer cells is their ability to rewire their metabolism to sustain the production of ATP and macromolecules needed for cell growth, division and survival.

Reprogramming of host metabolism supports viral pathogenesis by fueling viral proliferation, by providing, for example, free amino acids and fatty acids as building blocks.
