Copper in cancer: friend or foe? Metabolism, dysregulation, and therapeutic opportunities
Abstract Copper, one of the essential nutrients for the human body, acts as an electron relay in multiple pathways due to its redox properties. Both deficiencies and excesses of copper lead to cellular fragility. Therefore, it can manifest pro‐ and anti‐cancer properties in tumors. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the copper activity within the cell.

Pilot Scale Production of a F420 Precursor Under Microaerobic Conditions
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary This work studies the influence of oxygen availability on heterologous biosynthesis of the redox co‐factor FO with an engineered E. coli strain up to pilot scale. Microaerobic conditions led to a counter selection of the unwanted natural side product riboflavin and substantially increased titers of FO.

Protein posttranslational modifications in metabolic diseases: basic concepts and targeted therapies
Posttranslational modifications of proteins are involved in the development of metabolism‐related diseases such as diabetes mellitus, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. PTMs mediates the development of diabetes mellitus by affecting insulin homeostasis, glucose metabolism, diabetic complications, gluconeogenesis, and β‐cell ...

Genome-wide association and transcriptome analysis reveals serum ghrelin to be linked with GFRAL [PDF]
Objective: Ghrelin is an orexigenic peptide hormone involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis, food intake and glucose metabolism. Serum levels increase anticipating a meal and fall afterwards. Underlying genetic mechanisms of the ghrelin secretion are unknown.
