Doxycycline alters metabolism and proliferation of human cell lines. [PDF]
The tetracycline antibiotics are widely used in biomedical research as mediators of inducible gene expression systems. Despite many known effects of tetracyclines on mammalian cells-including inhibition of the mitochondrial ribosome-there have been few ...

Characterization of the Aquaporin-9 Inhibitor RG100204 In Vitro and in db/db Mice
Aquaporin-9 (AQP9) is a facilitator of glycerol and other small neutral solute transmembrane diffusion. Identification of specific inhibitors for aquaporin family proteins has been difficult, due to high sequence similarity between the 13 human isoforms,

Differential Metabolism of Glycerol Based on Oral versus Intravenous Administration in Humans
Glycerol can be metabolized to glucose via gluconeogenesis or lactate via glycolysis. It is unknown if glycerol is metabolized similarly in the portal and systemic circulations in humans.

The molecular mechanism of propionate-regulating gluconeogenesis in bovine hepatocytes [PDF]
Objective Cows that are nursing get around 80% of their glucose from liver gluconeogenesis. Propionate, a significant precursor of liver gluconeogenesis, can regulate the key genes involved in hepatic gluconeogenesis expression, but its precise effects ...

Optimized 3D Culture of Hepatic Cells for Liver Organoid Metabolic Assays
The liver is among the principal organs for glucose homeostasis and metabolism. Studies of liver metabolism are limited by the inability to expand primary hepatocytes in vitro while maintaining their metabolic functions.

Effects of pre-exercise carbohydrate consumption on metabolism during exercise [PDF]
It is well documented that consuming carbohydrates (CHO) prior to exercise has been shown to alter metabolism. There are many ways that CHO ingestion affects substrate utilization and blood glucose dynamics at the start of exercise.

LC-MS proteomics analysis of the iInsulin/IGF-1-deficient Caenorhabditis elegans daf-2(e1370) mutant reveals extensive restructuring of intermediary metabolism [PDF]
The insulin/IGF-1 receptor is a major known determinant of dauer formation, stress resistance, longevity, and metabolism in Caenorhabditis elegans. In the past, whole-genome transcript profiling was used extensively to study differential gene expression ...
