How oligodendrocytes use fatty acid metabolism as an energy reserve to maintain axonal function and myelin stability when glucose is scarce, offering insights into neurodegenerative disease mechanisms ...

Exercise-stimulated signal transduction can restore glucose metabolism in insulin-resistant muscle through both acute activation of glucose transport and by improving insulin sensitivity for up to 48 ...

Just as smart traffic management ensures smooth vehicular movement during peak hours, our body relies on a molecular traffic system to manage the surge in glucose levels after a meal. Pancreatic ...

OBJECTIVE: To examine and compare in vitro basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in human omental and subcutaneous adipose tissue derived from lean, overweight or obese individuals, and in those ...

Scientists have gleaned a key cellular mechanism of how the body adjusts glucose levels, an important process that when abnormal can promote diabetes, cancer, and rare genetic diseases. UT ...

In organello starch biosynthesis was studied using intact chloroplasts isolated from spinach leaves (Spinacia oleracea). Immunoblot analysis using a specific antiserum against the mitochondrial ...

In a new study, a team of researchers has developed a flow cell battery powered by vitamin B2 (riboflavin) and glucose. The ...
