We have therefore attempted to estimate the liver hexokinase activity, because this enzyme has a key position in the synthesis of glycogen. You have full access to this article via your institution.

Researchers at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore have made an important discovery that could lead to new ...

Carbonated water may indirectly produce weight loss by boosting metabolism and blood glucose uptake, according to a brief ...

Although gut microbiota and lipid metabolites have been suggested to be closely associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the interactions between gut microbiota, ...

However, whether PD-L1 expression is regulated by glycolysis in breast cancer cells remains to be further elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that glycolytic enzyme hexokinase 2 (HK2) plays a crucial ...

LXR may directly interact with HIF-1α. Overall, HIF-1α activation promotes the expression of genes implicated in inflammation (interleukin 1-β), angiogenesis (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) ...

Objective High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) is a novel biomarker of myocardial injury and ischaemia. Our objective was to ascertain correlates of hs-cTnI and its incremental prognostic ...

Understanding the molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance remains a major medical challenge of the twenty-first century. Over the last half-century, many hypotheses have been proposed to ...

The HbA1c determination was based on the turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay for haemolysed whole blood. The glucose assay was based on the enzymatic reference method with hexokinase. Hexokinase ...

Migratory locusts display striking phenotypical plasticity. Gregarious locusts at high density can migrate long distances and cause huge economic losses of crops. By contrast, solitary locusts at low ...
