The Link between Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Sarcopenia: An Update Focusing on the Role of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase 4 [PDF]
Sarcopenia, defined as a progressive loss of muscle mass and function, is typified by mitochondrial dysfunction and loss of mitochondrial resilience. Sarcopenia is associated not only with aging, but also with various metabolic diseases characterized by ...

Inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex by moniliformin [PDF]
The mechanism for the inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex from bovine heart by moniliformin was investigated. Thiamin pyrophosphate proved to be necessary for the inhibitory action of moniliformin. The inhibition reaction was shown to be time-dependent and to follow first-order and saturation kinetics.

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinases: Therapeutic Targets for Diabetes and Cancers [PDF]
Impaired glucose homeostasis is one of the risk factors for causing metabolic diseases including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cancers. In glucose metabolism, pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) mediates a major regulatory step, an irreversible reaction

Kruppel‐like factor 15 regulates fuel switching between glucose and fatty acids in brown adipocytes
Aims/Introduction Brown adipose tissue (BAT) utilizes large amounts of fuel for thermogenesis, but the mechanism by which fuel substrates are switched in response to changes in energy status is poorly understood.

Variation in the organization and subunit composition of the mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E2/E3BP core assembly [PDF]
Crucial to glucose homoeostasis in humans, the hPDC (human pyruvate dehydrogenase complex) is a massive molecular machine comprising multiple copies of three distinct enzymes (E1–E3) and an accessory subunit, E3BP (E3-binding protein). Its icosahedral E2/

Reciprocal regulation of protein synthesis and carbon metabolism for thylakoid membrane biogenesis [PDF]
Metabolic control of gene expression coordinates the levels of specific gene products to meet cellular demand for their activities. This control can be exerted by metabolites acting as regulatory signals and/or a class of metabolic enzymes with dual ...
