Monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) constitute a family of 14 members among which
MCT1–4 facilitate the passive transport of monocarboxylates such as lactate, pyruvate and …

Monocarboxylates such as lactate, pyruvate, and the ketone bodies play major roles in
metabolism and must be transported across both the plasma membrane and mitochondrial …

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common solid tumors worldwide. A diet rich in
dietary fiber is associated with a reduction in its risk. Butyrate (BT) is one of the main end …

Due to intensive intracellular metabolism of short-chain fatty acids, ruminal epithelial cells
generate large amounts of d-β-hydroxybutyric acid, acetoacetic acid, and lactic acid. These …

Lithium is a therapeutic cation used to treat bipolar disorders but also has some important
features as an anti-cancer agent. In this review, we provide a general overview of lithium …

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common solid tumors worldwide. Consumption
