Circadian clocks coordinate mammalian behaviour and physiology enabling organisms to anticipate 24-hour cycles. Transcription-translation feedback loops are thought to drive these clocks in most of mammalian cells. However, red blood cells (RBCs), which do not contain a nucleus, and cannot perfor...

Background and aims: Phosphate slag, a by-product of phosphorus and steel production, is a potential soil amendment that improves nutrient availability and redox stability. However, how it reshapes the rhizosphere microbiome and metabolism to promote tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) root developmen...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the cause of tuberculosis, kills over one million people worldwide each year. Mtb is classified into ten distinct lineages, each harboring unique genetic changes that influence its survival, virulence, and transmissibility. Although metabolism plays a cr...
BACKGROUND: Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is the leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). The current standard of care focuses on supporting kidney function, stating the need for more efficient and targeted therapies to enhance repair. Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) and ...
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...
Exercise promotes physiological cardiomyocyte growth and protects against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in the heart. The molecular mechanism by which exercise benefits cardiac metabolism and function remains largely unknown. Exercise (swimming or treadmill)-induced physiological hypertrophy ...
