In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a high-resolution metabolic "map" of how cells orchestrate glucose processing, ...

3D electron tomography reveals glycogen particles (purple) clustered on the surface of lipid droplets (yellow), closely associated with endoplasmic reticulum membranes (blue) and mitochondria (red), ...

The sweet-taste receptor might be the first stop in a metabolic surveillance system for sugar. The receptor is also expressed in certain intestinal cells, where it may facilitate glucose absorption ...

Objective To compare the efficacy of exercise, metformin and their combination on glucose metabolism in individuals with abnormal glycaemic control. Design Systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Researchers from Bridgebio Pharma Inc. recently presented BBO-10203, a first-in-class, orally bioavailable, covalent small-molecule candidate designed to inhibit RAS-driven PI3Kα activity without ...

American black bears (Ursus americanus) have been shown to become transiently insulin resistant and hypothyroid during winter, but no studies have investigated these changes in long-term captive bears ...

Fizzy water might aid weight loss by boosting blood glucose uptake and metabolism—the rate at which the body uses and converts energy—but the effects are so small, drinking it can’t be relied on alone ...

Parasitic infections pose challenges to creating effective therapies because these microorganisms are eukaryotic, like the humans and animals that they infect. Additionally, species like Toxoplasma ...
