Overexpression of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 in retinoblastoma: A potential therapeutic opportunity for targeting vitreous seeds and hypoxic regions

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDK1), a key enzyme implicated in metabolic reprogramming of tumors, is induced in several tumors including glioblastoma, breast cancer and melanoma. However, the role played by PDK1 is not studied in retinoblastoma (RB).

Affinity‐Based Protein Profiling Reveals IDH2 as a Mitochondrial Target of Cannabinol in Receptor‐Independent Neuroprotection

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A chemical probe CBN‐P based on the neuroprotective cannabinoid cannabinol (CBN) was developed and synthesized. CNB‐P was found to have a similar mechanism of action as the parent compound and was used in click‐CLEM microscopy studies and affinity‐based protein profiling to identify the mitochondrial protein isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH2) as one ...

The emerging role of Nrf2 in mitochondrial function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The transcription factor NF-E2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2; gene name NFE2L2) allows adaptation and survival under conditions of stress by regulating the gene expression of diverse networks of cytoprotective proteins, including antioxidant, anti ...

Effects of seven days’ fasting on physical performance and metabolic adaptation during exercise in humans

open access: yesNature Communications
Humans have, throughout history, faced periods of starvation necessitating increased physical effort to gather food. To explore adaptations in muscle function, 13 participants (7 males and 6 females) fasted for seven days. They lost 4.6 ± 0.3 kg lean and

Cysteine catabolism and the serine biosynthesis pathway support pyruvate production during pyruvate kinase knockdown in pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesCancer & Metabolism, 2019
Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with limited treatment options. Pyruvate kinase, especially the M2 isoform (PKM2), is highly expressed in PDAC cells, but its role in pancreatic cancer remains controversial.

Electrochemical Biosensors for Cancer Biomarker Detection: Basic Concept, Design Strategy and Cutting‐Edge Development

open access: yesElectrochemical Science Advances, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer is a result of uncontrolled cell growth with the potential to damage or spread to another part of the body. It is the deadliest disease in the world; therefore, rapid and sensitive detection is essential to fight it. In the past few decades, many diagnosis tools have been developed to detect cancer and monitor therapy progress.
