The observations suggest a new mechanism, the mGluR5/PKCδ/PDH axis by which extracellular glutamate can raise oxidative metabolism in astrocytes, in response to rapidly increasing energy demands, such as in the liver or skeletal muscle. It appears that the plethora of astrocytic mitochondria maintain only a basal level of oxidative metabolism during ...

Assay of glycogen phosphorylase by differential spectropolarimetry [PDF]
Abstract A differential spectropolarimetric method has been developed for the measurement of glycogen phosphorylase activity. The reaction course measured in this way was first order, in agreement with results obtained by measuring inorganic phosphate liberation.

The origin, hormonal nature, and action of hepatotrophic substances in portal venous blood [PDF]
The hepatotrophic factors previously reported to be in splanchnic venous blood are pancreatic hormones and specifically insulin and glucagon. Of these, insulin is anabolic and glucagon is mainly catabolic but not exclusively so, since glucagon also has ...

Glycogenin is Dispensable for Glycogen Synthesis in Human Muscle, and Glycogenin Deficiency Causes Polyglucosan Storage [PDF]
Glycogenin is considered to be an essential primer for glycogen biosynthesis. Nevertheless, patients with glycogenin-1 deficiency due to biallelic GYG1 (NM_004130.3) mutations can store glycogen in muscle.

ABSTRACT Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) have been under investigation in preclinical and clinical settings for treating neurological disorders in recent years. Predominantly due to paracrine effects in vivo, hMSC‐secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) are at the forefront of these investigations.

Speed Endurance Training to Improve Performance
ABSTRACT In many sports, the physical dimension plays a crucial role in determining athletic performance. This review provides insights into the effectiveness of speed endurance training (SET), that is, exercise training performed at intensities higher than that eliciting maximum oxygen uptake (V̇O2‐max), on performance across different sports and ...
