Article Abstract

Glycolytic activity and in vitro effect of the pyruvate kinase activator AG-946 in red blood cells from low-risk myelodysplastic syndromes patients. Data showed decreased glycolytic activity in red blood cells of 2/3 of patients with lower-risk MDS. These results highlight a potential effect of the PK activator in this setting.

Babesia bigemina, a tick-borne protozoan parasite, is one of the main causative agents of bovine babesiosis, a disease with significant economic impact on the cattle industry. One of the key enzymes involved in the parasite's metabolism is lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), which plays an essential role in the anaerobic glycolytic pathway by catalysing the conversion of pyruvate to lactate. In this study, B.

Introduction: Lactate has emerged as a multifunctional signaling molecule regulating various physiological and pathological processes. Furthermore, lactylation, a newly identified posttranslational modification triggered by lactate accumulation, plays significant roles in human health and diseases. This study aims to investigate the roles of lactate/lactylation in respiratory diseases.

Multi-Omics and Clinical Validation Identify Key Glycolysis- and Immune-Related Genes in Sepsis.

Department of Geriatrics, Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, 610072, People's Republic of China.

Background: Sepsis is characterized by profound immune and metabolic perturbations, with glycolysis serving as a pivotal modulator of immune responses. However, the molecular mechanisms linking glycolytic reprogramming to immune dysfunction remain poorly defined.

Methods: Transcriptomic profiles of sepsis were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus.

Immune cells are increasingly recognized as nutrient sensors; however, their developmental role in regulating growth under homeostasis or dietary stress remains elusive. Here, we show that Drosophila larval macrophages, in response to excessive dietary sugar (HSD), reprogram their metabolic state by activating glycolysis, thereby enhancing TCA-cycle flux, and increasing lipogenesis-while concurrently maintaining a lipolytic state. Although this immune-metabolic configuration correlates with growth retardation under HSD, our genetic analyses reveal that enhanced lipogenesis supports growth, whereas glycolysis and lipolysis are growth-inhibitory.

Cancer remains a leading global cause of mortality, with treatment efficacy often compromised by drug resistance, highlighting the urgent need for novel targeted therapies. The enzyme fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 4 (PFKFB4) governs glycolytic flux by modulating fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (F2,6BP) levels. PFKFB4 overexpression has been observed in various cancers and correlates with tumor growth, aggressiveness, and poor prognosis.
