Phenotypical heterogeneity linked to adipose tissue dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes [PDF]
, 2016 Adipose tissue (AT) inflammation leads to increased free fatty acid (FFA) efflux and ectopic fat deposition, but whether AT dysfunction drives selective fat accumulation in specific sites remains unknown.

Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance [PDF]
Anesthesiology, 2008 Metabolic syndrome represents a constellation of risk factors associated with increased incidence of cardiovascular disease and progression to diabetes mellitus. Insulin resistance, a state of decreased biologic response to physiologic concentrations of insulin, is a key component of this syndrome and seems to be the result of a primary defect at the ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Insecticide resistance in mosquitoes: Development, mechanisms and monitoring
Ceylon Journal of Science, 2018 Mosquito-borne diseases are of major public health concerns, mainly in tropical countries. Control of these diseases is primarily achieved through mosquito control. One of the major challenges encountered by mosquito control programmes is the development

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Cholesterol metabolism and resistance to tamoxifen
Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2012 The oncoprotein MUC-1 was shown to upregulate the transcription of genes encoding cholesterol and lipid metabolic enzymes and correlated with a resistance to Tamoxifen (Tam) despite the presence of estrogen receptor α in breast cancer tumors. The importance of this observation is supported by molecular studies on Tam suggesting two additional ...
