Osteoblast differentiation is functionally associated with decreased AMP kinase activity.

29 Nov 2009 Osteoblasts, originating from mesenchymal stem cells, play a pivotal role in bone formation and mineralization. Several transcription factors including runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) have been reported to be essential for osteoblast ... 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...

Effect of pyruvate, lactate and insulin on ATP supply and demand in unpaced perfused rat heart.

10 Oct 2009 Mitochondrial respiration/oxidative phosphorylation is the main source of energy, in the form of ATP, in the heart under physiological conditions. Different respiratory substrates were used in various experiments during heart perfusion: glucose, ... Read more...
