The NADPH oxidase NOX4 regulates redox and metabolic homeostasis preventing HCC progression
Loss of NOX4 in HCC tumor cells induces metabolic reprogramming in a Nrf2/MYC‐dependent manner to promote HCC progression. Abstract Background and Aims The NADPH oxidase NOX4 plays a tumor‐suppressor function in HCC. Silencing NOX4 confers higher proliferative and migratory capacity to HCC cells and increases their in vivo tumorigenic potential in ...

Hepatic gluconeogenesis and regulatory mechanisms in lactating ruminants: A literature review
phosphoenolpyruvate carboxy kinase, FBP1, and glucose‐6‐phosphatase are key rate‐limiting enzymes that determine the efficiency of gluconeogenesis. The main substrate for gluconeogenesis in the liver of ruminants is propionate, which provides more than 60% of the carbon source for gluconeogenesis.

The stress polarity signaling (SPS) pathway serves as a marker and a target in the leaky gut barrier: implications in aging and cancer. [PDF]
The gut barrier separates trillions of microbes from the largest immune system in the body; when compromised, a "leaky" gut barrier fuels systemic inflammation, which hastens the progression of chronic diseases.
