Glycogen Metabolism and Its Role in Growth and Encystation in Entamoeba histolytica

Life, 2023
Entamoeba histolytica is a parasitic protozoan that causes diarrheal disease in approximately 100 million people worldwide every year. E. histolytica has two forms, the growing trophozoite and the infectious cyst.

Compartmentation of glycogen metabolism revealed from 13C isotopologue distributions [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Stable isotope tracers are used to assess metabolic flux profiles in living cells. The existing methods of measurement average out the isotopic isomer distribution in metabolites throughout the cell, whereas the knowledge of compartmental ...

Liver Glycogen Phosphorylase Deficiency Leads to Profibrogenic Phenotype in a Murine Model of Glycogen Storage Disease Type VI

Hepatology Communications, 2019
Mutations in the liver glycogen phosphorylase (Pygl) gene are associated with the diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type VI (GSD‐VI). To understand the pathogenesis of GSD‐VI, we generated a mouse model with Pygl deficiency (Pygl−/−).

Postprandial Glycogen Content Is Increased in the Hepatocytes of Human and Rat Cirrhotic Liver

Cells, 2021
Chronic hepatitises of various etiologies are widespread liver diseases in humans. Their final stage, liver cirrhosis (LC), is considered to be one of the main causes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). About 80–90% of all HCC cases develop in LC patients,

Crosstalk between beta‐adrenergic and insulin signaling mediates mechanistic target of rapamycin hyperactivation in liver of high‐fat diet‐fed male mice

Physiological Reports, 2021
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease. While increased nutrient intake and sympathetic activity have been associated with the disease, the pathogenesis of NAFLD remains incompletely understood.
