Glycolytic metabolism is closely involved in physiological homeostasis and pathophysiological states. Among glycolytic enzymes, phosphoglycerate mutase (PGAM) has been reported to exert certain physiological role in vitro, whereas its impact on glucose metabolism in vivo remains unclear. Here, we report the characterization of Pgam1 knockout mice. We observed that homozygous knockout mice of Pgam1 were embryonic lethal. Although we previously reported that both PGAM-1 and -2 affect global glycolytic profile of cancers in vitro, in vivo glucose parameters were less affected both in the heterozygous knockout of Pgam1 and in Pgam2 transgenic mice. Thus, the impact of PGAM on in vivo glucose metabolism is rather complex than expected before.

Food allergies are pathological adverse reactions against harmless dietary proteins. While studies have shown the involvement of host metabolic changes (, lipid metabolism and amino acid metabolism) in the development of food allergy (FA), the adaptive changes in glucose metabolism induced by food allergen exposure remain largely unclear. In this study, BALB/c mice were sensitized intraperitoneally with an ovalbumin (OVA)/aluminum adjuvant, followed by oral OVA challenges to induce anaphylaxis.

We report the first implementation of ion mobility mass spectrometry combined with an ultrahigh throughput sample introduction technology for high-throughput screening (HTS). The system integrates differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) with acoustic ejection mass spectrometry (AEMS), termed DAEMS, enabling the simultaneous quantitation of structural isomers that are the substrates and products of isomerase-mediated reactions in intermediary metabolism. We demonstrate this potential by comparing DAEMS to a luminescence assay for the isoform of phosphoglycerate mutase (iPGM) distinctively present in pathogens, offering an opportunity as a drug target for a variety of microbial and parasite borne diseases.

The heat stress (HS) induced by high temperatures can result in oxidative damage to muscles, thereby compromising both muscle growth and immune function within the organism. Mitophagy serves as a pivotal pathway in alleviating excessive ROS production and subsequent oxidative damage. However, the potential role of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a natural antioxidant found in tea, in mitophagy under HS remains unexplored.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent malignant tumor often leading to liver metastasis and mortality. Despite some success with PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy, the response rate for colon cancer patients remains relatively low. This is closely related to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment mediated by tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs).

Endotoxemia, caused by lipopolysaccharides, triggers systemic inflammation and myocardial injury by disrupting mitochondrial homeostasis. This study examines the roles of dual specificity phosphatase 1 (Dusp1) and phosphoglycerate mutase family member 1 (Pgam1) in this process. This study utilized cardiomyocyte-specific knockout ( ) and transgenic ( ) mice, alongside knockout ( ) mice, subjected to LPS-induced endotoxemia.
