Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.

Dual targeting of EGFR and glutaminase in lung cancer

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2018
We have recently demonstrated that targeted inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling and glutaminase led to metabolic crisis in EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinomas and significant tumor regression in mouse xenograft models.

Quantitative constraint-based computational model of tumor-to-stroma coupling via lactate shuttle

, 2015
Cancer cells utilize large amounts of ATP to sustain growth, relying primarily on non-oxidative, fermentative pathways for its production. In many types of cancers this leads, even in the presence of oxygen, to the secretion of carbon equivalents ...

Environment Impacts the Metabolic Dependencies of Ras-Driven Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer [PDF]

, 2018
Cultured cells convert glucose to lactate, and glutamine is the major source of tricarboxylic acid (TCA)-cycle carbon, but whether the same metabolic phenotype is found in tumors is less studied.

Oxidative Stress and DNA Epigenetic Modifications in Cancer: Mechanisms and Targeted Therapeutics

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) modulate DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), ten‐eleven translocation family proteins (TETs) and their cofactors, reshaping 5‐methylcytosine (5mC)/5‐hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)/5‐formylcytosine (5fC) landscapes and gene expression in cancer cells. In turn, epigenetic control of antioxidant and metabolic pathways feeds back on

Glutamine addiction: an Achilles heel in esophageal cancers with dysregulation of CDK4/6

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2019
Understanding and overcoming resistance to cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors will be challenging. Recent work reveals that dysregulation of F-Box Protein 4 (FBXO4)-Cyclin D1 axis leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and drives glutamine ...

The potential of halophilic and halotolerant bacteria for the production of antineoplastic enzymes: L-asparaginase and L-glutaminase [PDF]

, 2016
L-asparaginase and L-glutaminase can be effectively used for the treatment of patients who suffer from accute lymphoblastic leukemia and tumor cells. Microbial sources are the best source for the bulk production of these enzymes. However, their long-term

Single‐Mitochondrion ATP Profiling Directs Discovery of Targetable OXPHOS Dependency in Cancers

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 21, 13 April 2026.
MitoATP‐nFCM integrates nano‐flow cytometry with fluorogenic probes (ATP/membrane potential) and antibodies to quantify mitochondrial metabolites and protein expression at single‐organelle resolution, exposing oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)‐driven metabolic rewiring in cancers.

Combining Small‐Molecular Compounds With CAR T‐Cell Therapy: Novel Strategies for Enhanced Cancer Immunotherapy

Cancer Innovation, Volume 5, Issue 2, April 2026.
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell therapy, although revolutionary for haematological malignancies, faces significant challenges, including T‐cell exhaustion, limited persistence, and treatment‐related toxicity. The integration of small‐molecule compounds offers a promising strategy to overcome these limitations.
