Metabolic Regulation of the Glioblastoma Stem Cell Epitranscriptome by Malate Dehydrogenase 2

Paper Report: The Role of MDH2 in Epitranscriptomic Metabolic Regulation of Glioblastoma Stem Cells Introduction and Background Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and lethal primary brain malignant tumor in adults. GBM cells utilize a metabolic pathway known as the Warburg effect, which involves increased glucose uptake through aerobic glycolysi...

Acid-Base Homeostasis and its Implications on Cancer Phenotypic Behaviors

Cancer is a major global public health concern, with its complex pathological processes and diverse manifestations being a focus of research. Many studies have shown that acid-base imbalance plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of cancer, but the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study titled “Acid–base homeo...

Electron Transport Chain Inhibition Increases Cellular Dependence on Purine Transport and Salvage

Inhibition of the electron transport chain increases cell dependence on purine transport and salvage Research Background The electron transport chain (ETC) is a key mechanism in mitochondria responsible for energy generation, playing an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and growth. However, it remains unclear how cells adjust their...

Microglia Undergo Sex-Dimorphic Transcriptional and Metabolic Rewiring During Aging

The Role of Microglia in Neuroinflammation: Metabolic and Gender Differences in Aging Research Background Aging is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and Parkinson’s Disease. Even healthy aging is accompanied by a decline in cognitive function. Previous research has indicated that microglia undergo s...
