Haptoglobin and Glutamine Synthetase May Biomark Cachexia Induced by Antiacute Myeloid Leukaemia Chemotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Anticancer chemotherapy is an underappreciated contributor to cancer cachexia, an often‐irreversible body‐wasting condition that causes 20%–30% of cancer‐related deaths. An obstacle to predicting, monitoring and understanding the mechanisms underlying chemotherapy cachexia is that each cancer (and subtype) is assigned different ...

Glutamine Anabolism Plays a Critical Role in Pancreatic Cancer by Coupling Carbon and Nitrogen Metabolism

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Glutamine is thought to play an important role in cancer cells by being deaminated via glutaminolysis to α-ketoglutarate (aKG) to fuel the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Supporting this notion, aKG supplementation can restore growth/survival of

TP53-inducible Glycolysis and Apoptosis Regulator (TIGAR) Metabolically Reprograms Carcinoma and Stromal Cells in Breast Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A subgroup of breast cancers has several metabolic compartments. The mechanisms by which metabolic compartmentalization develop in tumors are poorly characterized. TP53 inducible glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) is a bisphosphatase that reduces

Metabolomics in cardiometabolic diseases: Key biomarkers and therapeutic implications for insulin resistance and diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, Volume 297, Issue 6, Page 584-607, June 2025.
Abstract Cardiometabolic diseases—including Type 2 diabetes and obesity—remain leading causes of global mortality. Recent advancements in metabolomics have facilitated the identification of metabolites that are integral to the development of insulin resistance, a characteristic feature of cardiometabolic disease. Key metabolites, such as branched‐chain

Enhanced PDMS Functionalization for Organ‐on‐a‐Chip Platforms Using Ozone and Sulfo‐SANPAH: A Simple Approach for Biomimetic Long‐Term Cell Cultures

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 13, May 16, 2025.
The use of organ‐on‐a‐chip (OOC) microfluidic platforms is expanding in biomedical research. While this emerging technology is becoming increasingly accessible, the stability of long‐term functional cultures remains a critical challenge to address. This study presents a straightforward, one‐step method for the functionalization of polydimethylsiloxane ...
