Mitochondria maintain the energy supply, biosynthesis, and redox homeostasis of tumor cells through oxidative phosphorylation, the TCA cycle, and substrate oxidation. Certain tumors and treatment-persistent cells can develop specific mitochondrial metabolic dependencies, making OXPHOS, substrate ...
Obesity and related metabolic diseases are characterized not only by increased energy intake and fat storage but also by abnormalities in hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism, substrate utilization, and amino acid homeostasis. GCGR is an important Class B1 GPCR that regulates hepatic substrate ...
β-Hydroxybutyrate is one of the predominant ketone body forms in blood and tissues. It is commonly used to evaluate enhanced fatty acid oxidation, hepatic ketogenesis, starvation or fasting status, diabetic ketosis, exercise metabolism, and mitochondrial energy conversion. Compared with ...
