Role of the Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex in Metabolic Remodeling: Differential Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Functions in Metabolism [PDF]
Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2018 Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of metabolic diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancers. Dysfunction occurs in part because of altered regulation of the mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinases: Therapeutic Targets for Diabetes and Cancers [PDF]
Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2015 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

Food Production, Processing and Nutrition, 2020 Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) is a mitochondrial enzyme in a variety of eukaryotes, including the plant pathogen Fusarium graminearum. This enzyme can reduce the oxidation of glucose to acetyl-coA by phosphorylation and selectively inhibits the ...

Metabolic checkpoint of ferroptosis resistance
Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021 The metabolic checkpoint of ferroptosis remains obscure. We find that glucose favors system xc− inhibitor-induced ferroptosis by activating pyruvate oxidation, thereby promoting fatty acid synthesis and subsequent lipid peroxidation.
