Endogenous pyruvate is an end-product in glycolysis and a key molecule for ATP production under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, whereas exogenous pyruvate is transferred to cells via monocarboxylate ...

An article in Protein & Cell discusses the multifactorial nature of obesity, highlighting its association with chronic low-grade inflammation, or meta-inflammation, which contributes to metabolic ...

Image Caption: Pyruvate inhibits TNFα/NF-κB signaling and the expression of downstream pro-inflammatory genes. Genes & Diseases publishes rigorously peer-reviewed and high quality original articles ...

Scientists led by a team at the Medical Research Council (MRC) Mitochondrial Biology Unit, University of Cambridge, have worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria—the “powerhouses” of ...

Pyruvate kinase deficiency is a rare, hereditary, chronic condition that is associated with hemolytic anemia. In a phase 2 study, mitapivat, an oral, first-in-class activator of erythrocyte pyruvate ...

The present study was instituted to determine whether children with congenital heart disease have abnormal blood levels of lactate and pyruvate and to determine whether a relation exists between ...

Fifty years since its discovery, scientists have finally worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria, the 'powerhouses' of our cells, allows us to make the fuel we need from sugars, a ...

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease marked by intestinal pain, bleeding, and impaired gut barrier function. At the heart of the disease lies TNFα-induced NF-κB signaling, which ...
