In the fast-evolving landscape of biotechnology and systems biology, understanding the dynamic processes that sustain life at a cellular level is crucial for advancing research and therapeutic applications. One essential approach to studying cellular metabolism is Metabolic Flux Analysis (MFA), a powerful tool that reveals the intracellular activities and metabolic dynamics of living systems. ...
Skeletal muscle microvascular endothelial cells (SMECs) play an essential role in maintaining muscle function, metabolism, and overall health. These specialized cells line the blood vessels within skeletal muscles, forming a barrier that regulates the exchange of substances between the bloodstream and muscle tissue. Their significance extends beyond mere structural support; they actively ...
Life is all about working out. Moderate exercise not only strengthens the body, but also improves the metabolic state and slows the progression of diseases. However, different times of exercise may have different impacts, and it is an intriguing scientific question how to determine the best time to exercise. Although the influence of exercise on energy metabolism is well recognized, there is ...
The gut is a complex ecosystem that contains an extremely large community of microbes known as the gut microbiome. The gut microbiome is made up of bacteria, archaea, viruses, fungi, and other eukaryotic microorganisms, including yeasts, flagellates, ciliates, and protozoa. The gut microbiota of a healthy individual consists of six phyla (Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria, ...
Abstract Class 1 plant hemoglobins (phytoglobins) are upregulated during low-oxygen stress and participate in metabolism and cell signaling via modulation of the levels of nitric oxide (NO). We studied the effects of overexpression and knockdown of the class 1 phytoglobin gene in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) under low-oxygen stress. The overexpression of phytoglobin reduced the amount of NO ...
