The current understanding of lactate extends from its origins as a byproduct of glycolysis to
its role in tumor metabolism, as identified by studies on the Warburg effect. The lactate …

Traditional views of cellular metabolism imply that it is passively adapted to meet the
demands of the cell. It is becoming increasingly clear, however, that metabolites do more …

The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, otherwise known as the Krebs cycle, is a central
metabolic pathway that performs the essential function of oxidizing nutrients to support …

Metabolic transformation is a hallmark of cancer and a critical target for cancer therapy.
Cancer metabolism and behaviour are regulated by cell-intrinsic factors as well as …

The metabolic state represents a major hurdle for an effective adoptive T cell therapy (ACT).
Indeed, specific lipids can harm CD8+ T cell (CTL) mitochondrial integrity, leading to …

Disordered metabolic states, which are characterised by hypoxia and elevated levels of
metabolites, particularly lactate, contribute to the immunosuppression in the tumour …

Lipids play crucial roles in signal transduction, contribute to the structural integrity of cellular
membranes, and regulate energy metabolism. Questions remain as to which lipid species …

Attributable to its late diagnosis, early metastasis, and poor prognosis, pancreatic cancer
remains one of the most lethal diseases worldwide. Unlike other solid tumors, pancreatic …

Exposure of lipopolysaccharide triggers macrophage pro-inflammatory polarization
accompanied by metabolic reprogramming, characterized by elevated aerobic glycolysis …

Amino acids are fundamental building blocks supporting life. Their role in protein synthesis
is well defined, but they contribute to a host of other intracellular metabolic pathways …
