Formation of reactive oxygen species by human and bacterial pyruvate and 2- oxoglutarate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes reconstituted from recombinant components [PDF]
Individual recombinant components of pyruvate and 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase multienzyme complexes (PDHc, OGDHc) of human and Escherichia coli (E. coli) origin were expressed and purified from E. coli with optimized protocols.

Genetic Inactivation of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinases Improves Hepatic Insulin Resistance Induced Diabetes [PDF]
Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDK1-4) play a critical role in the inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex especially when blood glucose levels are low and pyruvate can be conserved for gluconeogenesis.

Programming Skeletal Muscle Metabolic Flexibility in Offspring of Male Rats in Response to Maternal Consumption of Slow Digesting Carbohydrates during Pregnancy [PDF]
Skeletal muscle plays a relevant role in metabolic flexibility and fuel usage and the associated muscle metabolic inflexibility due to high-fat diets contributing to obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Ambiguous Presentations of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Deficiency: Combined Case Studies
Background: The pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) complex is essential in the glycolytic conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. This reaction helps yield adenosine triphosphate (ATP) – a source for energy.

Manifestations of X‐linked pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency in female PDHA1 carriers
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex deficiency is in up to 90% caused by pathogenic variants in the X‐linked PDHA1 gene. We aimed to investigate female relatives of index patients with PDHA1‐related disease to (i) describe the prevalence of female PDHA1 ...

Analysis of malaria associated genetic traits in Cabo Verde, a melting pot of European and sub Saharan settlers [PDF]
Malaria has occurred in the Cabo Verde archipelago with epidemic characteristics since its colonization. Nowadays, it occurs in Santiago Island alone and though prophylaxis is not recommended by the World Health Organization, studies have highlight the ...
