Glycerol is synthesized and secreted by adipocytes to dispose of excess glucose, via glycerogenesis and increased acyl-glycerol turnover [PDF]
White adipose tissue (WAT) produces large amounts of lactate and glycerol from glucose. We used mature epididymal adipocytes to analyse the relative importance of glycolytic versus lipogenic glycerol in adipocytes devoid of external stimuli.

Expression Regulation of Gluconeogenesis Related Genes in Ovine Skeletal Muscle Cells
Background: Under fasting conditions, the pathway converting gluconeogenesis precursors into muscle glycogen becomes crucial due to reduced glycogen reserves. However, there is limited research on skeletal muscle gluconeogenesis and the impact of fasting

Role of multi‐site phosphorylation in regulation of pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase
Pig Heart PDH complex is phosphorylated (with MgATP) and inactivated by PDH kinase intrinsic to the complex; and reactivated by PDHP phosphatase. Fully phosphorylated PDHP complex ((w,P&) contams three phosphorylated serine residues recoverable in two tryptic phosphopeptides of known amino acid sequence [ 11.

Metformin induces distinct bioenergetic and metabolic profiles in sensitive versus resistant high grade serous ovarian cancer and normal fallopian tube secretory epithelial cells. [PDF]
Metformin is a widely used agent for the treatment of diabetes and infertility, however, it has been found to have anti-cancer effects in a variety of malignancies including high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC).
