Increasing ambient temperature restores body temperature and reverses hypometabolism in Q-neuron–induced hypothermic mice. These results suggest that body temperature is an important factor in the ...

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, ...

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 ...

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 ...

A new study from researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center shows that the glucose-fructose mix found in sugary drinks directly fuels metastasis in preclinical models of advanced ...

Melanie R. McReynolds receives funding from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Hanna H. Gray Fellows Program Faculty Phase and the Burroughs Welcome Fund PDEP Transition to Faculty. Aging is a ...

A drug that restores brain metabolism in mouse models of Alzheimer's also improved cognitive function. The discovery could help researchers find additional pathways to combating the symptoms of this ...
