Researchers have uncovered how the breakdown of glycogen may protect the brain from neurodegeneration and Alzheimer's.

A new study from scientists at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging has revealed a surprising player in the battle ...

The metabolism of cancer has interested scientists in recent decades. Many cancers conduct "normal" metabolism, while others have altered metabolic pathways that allow them to grow in dense masses ...

Pentose-phosphate shunt, oxidative branch Definition: The branch of the pentose-phosphate shunt which involves the oxidation of glucose 6-P and produces ribulose 5-P, reduced NADP+ and carbon dioxide ...

A metabolic pathway that has occupied plant scientists for decades is the oxidative pentose-phosphate pathway, which leads to the conversion of carbohydrates into energy equivalents. Researchers at ...

Flux through the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway is associated with the release of CO 2 and the production of energy in the form of NADPH. Therefore, it can be expected to ...

„Role of Glucose-6-Phosphat Dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and the oxidative Pentose-Phosphate Pathway (OPPP) for redox homeostasis in higher plants“ In this project we study the role of the oxidative pentose ...

A key enzyme in sugar metabolism is inactivated particularly easily and efficiently by oxidative stress. Scientists at the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ ...

The abstract by Wu et al entitled, “Identification of Two Subtypes and Prognostic Characteristics of Lung Adenocarcinoma based on Pentose Phosphate Metabolic Pathway-related Long Non-Coding RNAs,” ...
