Erythropoietin (Ep) stimulated glucose uptake by erythroid progenitor cells in the liver of fetal rats, as measured by [3H]2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake. This dose-dependent stimulation was maximal at 0.2 U/ml Ep and decreased during cell differentiation. Dexamethasone (DEX) inhibited glucose uptake by erythroid progenitors; this dose-dependent effect was maximal at 10(-7) M DEX. Ep partly counteracted the inhibitory effect of DEX. This antagonism may contribute to the overall antagonism between Ep and glucocorticoids in the development of erythroid tissue in vivo and in vitro.

Background: Glucose deprivation inhibits T-cell metabolism and function. Glucose levels are low in the tumor microenvironment of solid tumors and insufficient glucose uptake limits the antitumor response of T cells. Furthermore, glucose restriction can contribute to the failure of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy for solid tumors.

Fructose-Driven glycolysis supports synaptic function in subterranean rodent - Gansu Zokor (Eospalax cansus).

Electronic address:

Several studies indicate that fructose can be used as an energy source for subterranean rodents. However, how subterranean rodents utilize fructose metabolism with no apparent physiological drawbacks remains poorly understood. In the present study, we measured field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) in hippocampal slices from Gansu zokor and SD rats hippocampi before and 60 min after replacement of 10 mM glucose in the artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) with 10 mM fructose (gassed with 95 % O and 5 % CO).

Skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) are critical for postnatal skeletal muscle growth and regeneration. Adiponectin plays a pivotal role in regulating muscle glucose uptake and fatty acid metabolism. However, its function in the proliferation and differentiation of chicken SMSCs remains poorly understood.

Decreased opioid receptor availability and impaired neurometabolic coupling as signatures of morphine tolerance in male rats: A positron emission tomography study.

Translational neuroimaging techniques are needed to address the impact of opioid tolerance on brain function and quantitatively monitor the impaired neuropharmacological response to opioids at the CNS level. A multiparametric PET study was conducted in rats. Rats received morphine daily to induce tolerance (15 mg/kg/day for 5 days), followed by 2-day withdrawal.

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), defined as glucose intolerance occurring or first detected during pregnancy, affects approximately 8% of pregnancies worldwide. The dysfunction of trophoblasts in pregnancies complicated by GDM is associated with changes in trophoblast cell functions, resulting in compromised proliferation and regulation of the cell cycle. Cyclin B1 (CCNB1), a pivotal controller of the start of mitosis, is crucial in these mechanisms.
