Lin28A induces energetic switching to glycolytic metabolism in human embryonic kidney cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Loss of a cell’s capacity to generate sufficient energy for cellular functions is a key hallmark of the ageing process and ultimately leads to a variety of important age-related pathologies such as cancer, Parkinson’s disease and ...

Molecular mechanisms of the non-coenzyme action of thiamin in brain. Biochemical, structural and pathway analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Thiamin (vitamin B1) is a pharmacological agent boosting central metabolism through the action of the coenzyme thiamin diphosphate (ThDP). However, positive effects, including improved cognition, of high thiamin doses in neurodegeneration may be ...

Purification and partial characterization of rat liver pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase activator protein (free pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase) [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1992
Rat liver pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) kinase activator protein (KAP), a free PDH kinase readily separable from PDH complex and its intrinsic kinase, has been purified to apparent homogeneity from liver mitochondria of fed and 48‐h starved rats. On SDS‐PAGE an apparently single band of M, 45 kDa was obtained.

Bortezomib-induced aerobic glycolysis contributes to chemotherapy-induced painful peripheral neuropathy

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2019
Chemotherapy-induced painful peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is the most common toxicity associated with widely used chemotherapeutics. CIPN is the major cause of dose reduction or discontinuation of otherwise life-saving treatment.

PDK4 dictates metabolic resistance to ferroptosis by suppressing pyruvate oxidation and fatty acid synthesis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Although induction of ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of non-apoptotic cell death, has emerged as an anticancer strategy, the metabolic basis of ferroptotic death remains poorly elucidated.

Regulation of mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1997
It is generally believed that mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase is a heterodimer consisting of catalytic and regulatory subunits. However, the contribution of the two subunits to the kinase‐mediated signal transduction has remained undefined. In the present study recombinant components of mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase complex were employed in ...

A simple and reliable method for determination of optimum pH in coupled enzyme assays

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2020
Determination of the optimum pH in a coupled enzyme assay poses significant challenges because altering the pH of the reaction mixture can affect the performance of both enzymes.

Electron transport phosphorylation in rumen butyrivibrios: unprecedented ATP yield for glucose fermentation to butyrate. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
From a genomic analysis of rumen butyrivibrios (Butyrivibrio and Pseudobutyrivibrio sp.), we have re-evaluated the contribution of electron transport phosphorylation (ETP) to ATP formation in this group.

Warburg effect hypothesis in autism Spectrum disorders

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2018
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disease which is characterized by a deficit in social interactions and communication with repetitive and restrictive behavior. In altered cells, metabolic enzymes are modified by the dysregulation of

Detecting de novo Hepatic Ketogenesis Using Hyperpolarized [2-13C] Pyruvate

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
The role of ketones in metabolic health has progressed over the past two decades, moving from what was perceived as a simple byproduct of fatty acid oxidation to a central player in a multiplicity of disease states. Previous work with hyperpolarized (HP)
