Altered hepatic glucose homeostasis in AnxA6-KO mice fed a high-fat diet [PDF]
Annexin A6 (AnxA6) controls cholesterol and membrane transport in endo- and exocytosis,and modulates triglyceride accumulation and storage. In addition, AnxA6 acts as a scaffolding protein for negative regulators of growth factor receptors and their ...

The Role of Mitochondrial Genetic Background in Cellular Function, Response to Cell Stress and Disease Susceptability [PDF]
There is a differential susceptibility associated with several diseases including cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hypertension, with Blacks being more likely to develop these conditions. Blacks are also more likely to die from these diseases. To explain

A role of glycerophosphodiesterase EDI3 in glycogen metabolism [PDF]
The glycerophosphodiesterase EDI3 (endometrial differential 3) is a key enzyme in various metabolic signalling pathways because it cross-links the triglyceride and choline signalling pathway by hydrolysing glycerophosphocholine (GPC) to glycerol-3 ...
