Comparative proteomics analysis of root and nodule mitochondria of soybean
Abstract Legumes perform symbiotic nitrogen fixation through rhizobial bacteroids housed in specialised root nodules. The biochemical process is energy‐intensive and consumes a huge carbon source to generate sufficient reducing power. To maintain the symbiosis, malate is supplied by legume nodules to bacteroids as their major carbon and energy source ...

ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (

Stanniocalcin 1 effects on the renal gluconeogenesis pathway in rat and fish [PDF]
The mammalian kidney contributes significantly to glucose homeostasis through gluconeogenesis. Considering that stanniocalcin 1 (STC1) regulates ATP production, is synthesized and acts in different cell types of the nephron, the present study ...

How Plants May Maintain Protein Homeostasis Under Rising Atmospheric CO2
ABSTRACT Vascular plants may employ several physiological mechanisms to stabilize their protein contents as atmospheric CO2 concentrations change over a day, year, decade, or century. One mechanism is that plants may rely more on soil ammonium as their nitrogen source when CO2 increases.

Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Liver steatosis and insulin-resistance : reversal by Sutherlandia frutescens [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rapidly emerging as one of the greatest global health issues of the 21st century. Insulin-resistance is a condition associated with T2DM and in the cell it is defined as the inadequate strength of insulin signalling ...

Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

What's new? Endocrine drugs repurposed from treatment protocols are the primary medications available for breast cancer (BC) prevention in at‐risk women. Adverse effects, however, significantly minimize uptake and prevention impact. Here, the authors investigated licochalcone A (LicA), a non‐endocrine anti‐inflammatory agent with reported hematologic ...

Regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex: Dancing to different drums in cancer
Abstract Mechanisms governing the regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) are markedly modified in cancer cells compared to normal cells. PDC activity in normal cells is controlled by the reversible phosphorylation of three serine residues by dedicated kinases and phosphatases.

Prostaglandin D2 Synthase Controls Schwann Cells Metabolism and Peripheral Myelin Homeostasis
Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L‐PGDS) controls PPNS myelin lipids’ composition and Schwann cells energetic metabolism In the absence of L‐PGDS Schwann cells turn to acetate as the main energetic source. These metabolic changes result in ketone bodies production to preserve neuronal survival.
