Is it possible for pyruvate kinase to be a non-small cell lung cancer marker? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background . Lung cancer is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality among all cancers. The dominant type of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer.

From Glucose to Lactate and Transiting Intermediates Through Mitochondria, Bypassing Pyruvate Kinase: Considerations for Cells Exhibiting Dimeric PKM2 or Otherwise Inhibited Kinase Activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
A metabolic hallmark of many cancers is the increase in glucose consumption coupled to excessive lactate production. Mindful that L-lactate originates only from pyruvate, the question arises as to how can this be sustained in those tissues where pyruvate

Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency Causing Priapism

open access: yesCase Reports in Hematology, 2023
Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) is an autosomal recessive defect of the enzyme pyruvate kinase (PK) which is involved in catalyzing a reaction that produces ATP in the glycolytic pathway. It is the most common defect of the glycolytic pathway associated

Management of Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency in Children and Adults.

open access: yesBlood, 2020
Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency (PKD) is an autosomal recessive enzyme defect of the glycolytic pathway that causes congenital, non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia.

The contribution of two isozymes to the pyruvate kinase activity of Vibrio cholerae: One K+-dependent constitutively active and another K+-independent with essential allosteric activation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
In a previous phylogenetic study of the family of pyruvate kinase EC (2.7.1.40), a cluster with Glu117 and another with Lys117 were found (numbered according to the rabbit muscle enzyme).

Pharmacological Activation of Pyruvate Kinase M2 Inhibits CD4+ T Cell Pathogenicity and Suppresses Autoimmunity

open access: yesCell Metabolism, 2019
Summary Pyruvate kinase (PK) catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate during glycolysis. The PK isoform PKM2 has additional roles in regulation of gene transcription and protein phosphorylation.

Aerobic Glycolysis in the Retina: Functional Roles of Pyruvate Kinase Isoforms

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
One hundred years ago, Otto Heinrich Warburg observed that postmitotic retinal cells are the highest oxygen-consuming cells in the body. He compared these cells to actively growing mitotic tumor cells since both cells reprogram glucose for anabolic ...

Specific tumor-derived CCL2 mediated by pyruvate kinase M2 in colorectal cancer cells contributes to macrophage recruitment in tumor microenvironment

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
Development of colorectal cancer has been considered as a result of imbalance of pro- and anti-inflammatory intestinal microenvironment accompanied by macrophage recruitment.
