Cells use glycolytic intermediates for anabolism e.g., via the serine synthesis and pentose phosphate pathways. However, we still understand poorly how these metabolic pathways contribute to skeletal muscle cell biomass generation. The first aim of this study was therefore to identify enzymes tha...
Aging impairs muscle regeneration, but the key constraint remains unclear. Aged injured muscle fails to restore mitochondrial respiration, membrane potential, ATP/NADPH balance and redox control, forming a bioenergetic-redox bottleneck. To target this, we engineered CM-NTU-Ce, a C2C12 membrane-co...
Exercise enhances physical performance and reduces the risk of many disorders such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia and cancer. Exercise characteristically incites an inflammatory response, notably in skeletal muscles. While some effector mechanisms have been identified, regul...
