Glucose deprivation in tuberous sclerosis complex-related tumors [PDF]
Abstract Background Cancer cells possess unique metabolic phenotypes that are determined by their underlying oncogenic pathways. Activation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling cascade promotes glycolysis and leads to glucose-dependence in tumors.

Inhibition of IRE1 modifies effect of glucose deprivation on the expression of TNFα-related genes in U87 glioma cells [PDF]
Inhibition of IRE1 (inositol requiring enzyme-1), the major signaling pathway of endoplasmic reticulum stress, significantly decreases glioma cell proliferation and tumor growth.

Glucose deprivation neuronal injury in cortical culture
Murine cortical cell cultures deprived of glucose for 6-8 h developed extensive neuronal degeneration, apparent both morphologically and by efflux of lactate dehydrogenase to the bathing medium. This neuronal damage could be substantially reduced by addition of D-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (D-APV), in a concentration-dependent (IC50 about 2 microM ...

The use of energy substrates, such as lactate and pyruvate, has been shown to improve synaptic function when administered during glucose deprivation. In the present study, we investigated whether prolonged incubation with monocarboxylate (pyruvate or ...

Food after deprivation rewards the earlier eating [PDF]
Food intake can be increased by learning to anticipate the omission of subsequent meals. We present here a new theory that such anticipatory eating depends on an associative process of instrumental reinforcement by the nutritional repletion that occurs ...

Regulation of brain glucose transporters by glucose and oxygen deprivation
Brain cells are dependent on glucose and oxygen for energy. We investigated the effects of hypoxia, glucose deprivation, and hypoxia plus glucose deprivation on mRNA and protein levels of glucose transporter (GLUT1) and GLUT3 and 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) uptake in primary cultures of rat neurons and astroglia.

Glucose inhibits cardiac muscle maturation through nucleotide biosynthesis. [PDF]
The heart switches its energy substrate from glucose to fatty acids at birth, and maternal hyperglycemia is associated with congenital heart disease. However, little is known about how blood glucose impacts heart formation.

Phospholipase D1 mediates AMP-activated protein kinase signaling for glucose uptake. [PDF]
Glucose homeostasis is maintained by a balance between hepatic glucose production and peripheral glucose utilization. In skeletal muscle cells, glucose utilization is primarily regulated by glucose uptake.

Prediction of cardiovascular disease risk by cardiac biomarkers in 2 United Kingdom cohort studies: does utility depend on risk thresholds for treatment? [PDF]
We tested the predictive ability of cardiac biomarkers N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity troponin T, and midregional pro adrenomedullin for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events using the British Regional Heart Study ...
