Pyruvate is produced by glycolysis, a process in which carbohydrates are broken down to create energy. Calcium pyruvate is a popular supplement that many people use primarily for its purported weight ...

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary bone tumor but current therapies still have poor prognosis. Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) and Plasma activated media (PAM) have shown potential to ...

Peripheral neuropathy, as well as retinopathy and nephropathy, is a major complication of diabetes mellitus. While its pathogenesis remains unclear, continuous hyperglycemic insults diminish the ...

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 ...

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 ...

Chemists have developed an organic catalyst that can drive reactions using pyruvate -- a key biomolecule in many metabolic pathways -- that are difficult and complicated to achieve using conventional ...

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 ...
