Glucose - Metabolism
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Glucose'A primary source of energy for living organisms. It is naturally occurring and is found in fruits and other parts of plants in its free state. It is used therapeutically in fluid and nutrient replacement. Common names: Glucose; Dextrose; D-Glucose; D Glucose; Glucose, (L)-Isomer; L-Glucose; L Glucose; Glucose, (beta-D)-Isomer; Glucose, (DL)-Isomer; Glucose Monohydrate; Monohydrate, Glucose; Glucose, (alpha-D)-Isomer |

Kinetics of transport and phosphorylation of glucose in cancer cells.
29 Nov 2009 
Metabolic control analysis of tumor glycolysis has indicated that hexokinase (HK) and glucose transporter (GLUT) exert the main flux control (71%). To understand why they are the main controlling steps, the GLUT and HK kinetics and the contents of ... Read more...
Nov 2009 BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Most studies on mild cognitive impairment (MCI) have been focused on amnestic MCI (aMCI) that is the preclinical stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In contrast, only a few studies have involved patients in the preclinical ... Read more...
Effect of adipose tissue on the sexual dimorphism in metabolic flexibility.
30 Oct 2009 Metabolic flexibility is the ability to transition between fat oxidation (fasting state) and glucose oxidation (fed state). We hypothesized that adipose tissue inflammation and lipid metabolism contribute to sexual dimorphism in metabolic ... Read more...
