A reappraisal of the reaction pathway of pyruvate carboxylase [PDF]
The reaction pathway catalysed by pyruvate carboxylase was re-examined by using two independent experimental approaches not previously applied to this enzyme. To avoid the variable stoicheiometry associated with oxaloacetate formation, the reaction rate was measured by following release of Pi.

The complex centered on Ghd7 binds to numerous carbon and nitrogen metabolism genes on the genome through the corresponding motifs and transactivates the transcriptional expression of these carbon and nitrogen metabolism genes. With the assistance of OsNAC42 and other unknown Ghd7‐interacting proteins, this complex can regulate different metabolic ...

Mice lacking the tumour suppressor p53 are partially protected from developing diabetes. Here the authors show that p53 is upregulated in the pancreas of diabetic mice where it impairs β cell function by repressing expression of mitochondrial pyruvate ...

ABSTRACT The MT‐ATP6 gene m.8993T>G pathogenic variant has been associated with Leigh syndrome, especially in patients exhibiting a high degree of heteroplasmy. Although patients may present with a wide phenotypic spectrum, characteristic findings include bilateral, symmetric hyperintensities in the basal ganglia and brainstem on brain MRI ...

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.

Impaired G2/M cell cycle arrest induces apoptosis in pyruvate carboxylase knockdown MDA-MB-231 cells
Background: Previous studies showed that suppression of pyruvate carboxylase (PC) expression in highly invasive breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231 inhibits cell growth as a consequence of the impaired cellular biosynthesis. However, the precise cellular

Insulin, a key hormone in the regulation of glucose homoeostasis, is secreted by pancreatic β‐cells in response to elevated glucose levels. Insulin is released in a biphasic manner in response to glucose metabolism in β‐cells.

Abstract Background Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a challenging cancer with an increasing incidence. The Phase III TOPAZ‐1/KEYNOTE‐966 study demonstrated chemo‐immunotherapy (CIT) as a significant advancement, potentially replacing traditional chemotherapy for advanced biliary tract cancer.

Hypoxia-mediated repression of pyruvate carboxylase drives immunosuppression
Background Metabolic plasticity mediates breast cancer survival, growth, and immune evasion during metastasis. However, how tumor cell metabolism is influenced by and feeds back to regulate breast cancer progression are not fully understood.

Abstract Background Pancreatic cancer's aberrant lipid metabolism fuels cell growth, invasion, and metastasis, yet its impact on immune surveillance and immunotherapy is unclear. This study investigated how sterol regulatory element‐binding transcription factor 1 (SREBP1)‐driven lipid metabolism affects the tumor microenvironment (TME) in pancreatic ...
