Energy Metabolism as a Therapeutic Target in Cancer: The Role of Coenzyme Q10
The generation of energy within cells is a fundamental process enabling cell survival, and as such it represents a potential target in cancer therapy.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

ABC of oxygen: Diving and oxygen [PDF]
All organisms require oxygen for metabolism, but the oxygen in water is unavailable to mammals. Divers (and diving mammals such as whales and seals) are entirely dependent on the oxygen carried in the air in their lungs or their gas supply. Divers also have a paradoxical problem with oxygen.

Oxygen toxicity, oxygen radicals, transition metals and disease.
Introduction The frequency with which oxygen is used in clinical medicine must not blind us to the fact that it has many toxic effects. 02 supplied at concentrations greater than those in normal air has long been known to damage plants, animals and ...

B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Glutaredoxin (Grx) 3 proteins contain a thioredoxin domain and one to three class II Grx domains. These proteins play a crucial role in iron homeostasis in eukaryotic cells. In human Grx3, at least one of the two Grx domains, together with the thioredoxin domain, is essential for its function in iron metabolism.

Dimeric pyruvate formate‐lyase cleaves pyruvate using a radical‐based mechanism. G734 serves as a radical storage location, and the radical is transferred to the catalytic C419 residue. Mutation of the C418‐C419 pair causes loss of enzyme activity, but does not impede radical introduction onto G734. Therefore, cis‐ but not trans‐radical transfer occurs

During anaesthesia and during the management of respiratory failure by intermittent positive pressure ventilation, incipient hypoxaemia is common owing to the frequent occurrence of an increased physiological shunt. This hypoxaemia may be offset by raising the inspired oxygen tension and by hyperventilation.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Breast tumor samples scored for metabolic deregulation (M1 to M3) were given a hypoxia score (HS). The highest HS occurred in patients with strongest metabolic deregulation (M3), supporting tumor aggressiveness. HS correlated with the highest number of metabolic pathways in M1. This suggests hypoxia to be an early event in metabolic deregulation.
