Since an extensive genome research has started, basic principle "one gene-one protein-one function" was significantly revised. Many proteins with more than one function were identified and characterized as "moonlighting" proteins, which activity depend not only on structural peculiarities but also on compartmentation and metabolic environment. It turned out that "housekeeping" glycolytic enzymes show important moonlight functions such as control of development, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, regulation of transcription and cell signaling. Glycolytic enzymes emerged very early in evolution and because of the limited content of genomes, they could be used as ancient regulators for intercellular and intracellular communication. The multifunctionality of the constitutively expressed enzymes began to serve cancer cell survival and growth. In the present review we discuss some moonlight functions of glycolytic enzymes that important for malignant transformation and tumor growth.

Lactate has been increasingly recognized for its role in diseases progression, necessitating a deeper understanding of its metabolic processes and regulatory mechanisms. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on lactate accumulation in bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs) and to elucidate the underlying regulatory mechanisms. Further optimization of LPS treatment points was achieved by assessing the content of key glycolytic enzymes-hexokinases (HK), pyruvate kinase (PK) and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH)-as well as the expression levels of HK2, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase4 (PDK4) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA).

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) has been established to play an important role in regulating the responses of plants to stress, although its function and mechanisms of action in the cadmium (Cd)-tolerant remain unclear. In this study, we sought to identify a Cd-responsive gene from for functional analysis and mechanistic characterization. We accordingly identified a member of the gene family, , which plays a positive role in adaptation of to Cd.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is a life-threatening clinical syndrome characterized by high-grade inflammation and multi-organ failure. Our previous study shows that targeting the M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase (PKM2) to inhibit macrophage inflammation may be a promising strategy for ALF treatment. however, the mechanism by which PKM2 regulates the inflammatory response is unclear.

Previously, animal breeding prioritized enhancing key economic traits to improve production efficiency, leading to a gradual difference in meat quality. However, the genetic factors influencing meat quality remain unclear. To identify key genetic pathways contributing to meat quality, native Chinese yellow-feathered chicken (Qingyuan Partridge Chicken, QPC; female, n=10), and commercial chicken broiler (Cobb broiler, CB; female, n=10) were used for meat quality assessment through metabolomics, proteomics, and phosphoproteomics sequencing.

Silicosis is a fatal occupational pulmonary disease that is characterized by irreversible replacement of lung parenchyma by aberrant Exracellular matrix (ECM). Metabolic reprogramming is a crucial mechanism for fibrosis. However, how the metabolic rewiring shifts the ECM homeostasis toward overaccumulation remains unclear.
