The mitochondrial glutamine transporter SLC1A5_var plays a central role in the metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells by facilitating glutamine import into mitochondria for energy production and redox homeostasis. Despite its critical function, the development of effective and selective inhibito...
Epigenetic alterations are central drivers of cardiovascular aging, with histone modifications regulating gene expression through chromatin remodeling and changes in DNA accessibility. However, the mechanisms underlying these epigenetic shifts in the aging heart remain poorly defined. Here, we id...
Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) fulfills energy metabolism and biosynthesis through tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and an intact electron transport chain (ETC). Mitochondrial glutamine import (MGI) replenishes TCA cycle through glutaminolysis, but its broader roles in cancer remains unclear. H...

Excessive cyclin D1 accumulation is a frequent oncogenic event in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Although classically associated with enhanced proliferation and genomic instability, we reveal that cyclin D1 dysregulation induces unexpe...
