31P NMR spectroscopy at 4.7 T has been used to follow changes in phosphorylated metabolites and pHi in the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle of 15 healthy volunteers subjected to a rest-exercise-recovery protocol. Phosphomonoesters (Pme) increased during exercise and exhibited a delayed recovery to resting level. During early recovery, Pi fell below resting concentration without correlated PCr oversynthesis while Pme level stayed above its resting value. The sum Pi + Pme remained constant. These observations suggest that Pi could be trapped into the glycogenolytic pathway during exercise leading to Pme production. This trapping and the slow Pme recovery could account for transient Pi disappearance observed during recovery.

Purpose: Dual-Interventions targeting glucose and oxidative metabolism are receiving increasing attention in cancer therapy. Sorafenib (S) and Metformin (M), two gold-standards in liver cancer, are known for their mitochondrial inhibitory capacity. Fasting, a glucose-limiting strategy, is also emerging as chemotherapy adjuvant.

Background: Glycogen plays an important role in glucose homeostasis and contributes to key functions related to brain cancer cell survival in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) disease progression. Such adaptive molecular mechanism is dependent on the glycogenolytic pathway and intracellular glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) sensing by brain cancer cells residing within those highly hypoxic tumors. The involvement of components of the glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) system remains however elusive.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common form of progressive childhood muscular dystrophy associated with weakness of limbs, loss of ambulation, heart weakness and early death. The mutations causing either loss-of-expression or function of the full-length protein dystrophin (Dp427) from the gene are responsible for the disease pathology. Dp427 forms a part of the large dystroglycan complex, called DAPC, in the sarcolemma, and its absence derails muscle contraction.

Previous studies investigated the biochemical basis of dark-cutting conditions at elevated muscle pH (above 6), but the molecular basis at slightly above normal pH (between 5.6 and 5.8) is still unclear.
