Biochem/physiol Actions

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate as part of glycolysis. It has also been shown to have roles in initiation of apoptosis, transcription activation and the shuttling of ER to Golgi vesicles<<<18,New>>>.

siRNA is promising in anti-tumor therapy. The main challenge is lack of tumor-specific intracellular delivery. In this study, a 6 amino acids peptide (A1) with high affinity for vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGFR1) was conjugated with a cell penetrating

Edwardsiella tarda is a Gram-negative pathogen which causes systemic infection in turbot. The increasing frequency of edwardsiellosis in turbot farming has stressed the need to understand the immune responses of fish, for the further development of prevention and control strategies.

Glucose metabolism is regulated by the opposing actions of insulin and glucagon. Insulin is released from pancreatic ß cells in response to high blood glucose levels and regulates glucose metabolism through its actions on muscle, liver, and adipose tissue.

We presents an article about the Warburg effect, and how it is the enhanced conversion of glucose to lactate observed in tumor cells, even in the presence of normal levels of oxygen. Otto Heinrich Warburg demonstrated in 1924 that cancer cells show an increased dependence on glycolysis to meet their energy needs, regardless of whether they were well-oxygenated or not.
