A new technique for estimating postprandial glucose flux profiles without the use of glucose tracers is proposed. A sparse vector space representation is first found for the space of plausible glucose flux profiles using sparse encoding. A Lasso formulation is then used to estimate the glucose fluxes that combines (1) known patient model parameters; (2) the vector space of plausible glucose flux profiles; (3) continuous glucose monitor measurements taken during the meal; (4) amount of insulin injected; (5) amount of meal carbohydrates; and (6) an estimate of the initial conditions. Three glucose fluxes are then estimated, namely; glucose rate of appearance from the intestine; endogenous glucose production from the liver; insulin dependent glucose utilization; and other important state variables. The simulation results show that the technique is capable of estimating the glucose fluxes with high accuracy, even for complex meal scenarios. The experimental results indicate that the technique is capable of reproducing the triple tracer measurements for three T1DM undergoing the triple tracer protocol while estimating the missing measurements for a certain model parameter selection.

Aims/hypothesis: Emerging evidence underscored the significance of leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor (LGR) 4 in endocrine and metabolic disorders. Despite this, its role in LGR4 in hepatic glucose metabolism remains poorly understood. In this study we set out to test whether LGR4 regulates glucose production in liver through a specific signaling pathway.

Purpose: Eyelid infiltrative basal cell carcinoma (iBCC) is the most common malignant tumor affecting the ocular adnexa, but studies on metabolic changes within its microenvironment and heterogeneity at the tumor invasive area are limited. This study aims to analyze metabolic differences among iBCC cell types using single-cell and spatial metabolomics analysis and to examine metabolic environment at the tumor invasive area.
Methods: Single-cell transcriptomic data of human basal cell carcinoma (BCC) were clustered and visualized using Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection.

Sepsis leads to an acute breakdown of muscle to support increased caloric and amino acid requirements. Little is known about the role of adipose and muscle tissue breakdown and intestinal metabolism in glucose substrate supply during the acute phase of sepsis. In a translational porcine model of sepsis, we explored the across organ net fluxes of gluconeogenic substrates.

Steatotic liver disease (SLD) and Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) are characterised by a substantial rewiring of lipid fluxes caused by systemic metabolic unbalances and/or disrupted intracellular metabolic pathways. SLD is a direct consequence of the interaction between genetic predisposition and a chronic positive energy balance affecting whole-body energy homeostasis and the function of metabolically-competent organs. In this review, we discuss how the impairment of the cross-talk between peripheral organs and the liver stalls glucose and lipid metabolism, leading to unbalances in hepatic lipid fluxes that promote hepatic fat accumulation.

2'-Fucosyllactose (2'-FL) is the most abundant human milk oligosaccharide and plays significant roles in gut microbiome balance, neural development, and immunoregulation. However, current fermentation schemes using multiple carbon sources increase production cost and metabolism burden. This study reported the development of an engineered Bacillus subtilis strain that produces 2'-FL using glucose as the sole carbon source.
