On the basis of performed tests, we observed the change of pattern of pyruvate kinase isoenzyme in a malignant testicular tumor (only isoenzyme K) and the same isoenzyme in the tissue of other testis not being tumorously changed. In control group pyruvate kinase isoenzyme K and M was observed. Similarly, another pattern of aldolase isoenzymes in tumorous tissue was stated (AC) comparing with control group (arrangement AC, BC). The changes referred also to the activity of both examined enzymes in tumorous tissue and in the tissue of testis not being tumorously changed. The authors suggest the existence of a factor with depressor characteristics, which is produced by neoplasm and changes the function of genes that are responsible for synthesis examined isoenzymes in the tissue not being tumorously changed.

Metabolic dysregulation causes diseases like diabetes and cancer, making PDKs attractive targets. However, a thorough investigation into the unique roles played by the different members of the PDK family, especially PDK3, about memory loss and related diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD) is still lacking. The current study investigates PF's potential to reduce PDK3-associated toxicity in neurodegenerative illnesses, including AD.

Objectives: While ketone bodies are not the main heart fuel, exercise may increase their uptake. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of 6-week endurance training and Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 )PDK4( inhibition on ketone bodies metabolism in the heart of diabetic rats with emphasis on the role of Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator PGC-1alpha (PGC-1α).

Materials And Methods: Sixty male Wistar rats were divided into eight groups: healthy control group (CONT), endurance training group (TRA), diabetic group (DM), DM + EX group, Dichloroacetate (DCA) group, DM + DCA group, TRA + DCA group, and DM + TRA + DCA group.

Glioblastoma(GBM) is a highly malignant primary central nervous system tumor that poses a significant threat to patient survival due to its treatment resistance and rapid recurrence.Current treatment options, including maximal safe surgical resection, radiotherapy, and temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy, have limited efficacy.In recent years, the role of glycolytic metabolic reprogramming in GBM has garnered increasing attention.

During the harvest of Ilex paraguariensis, approximately 2-5 tons per hectare of thick stems are left on the soil surface. The outer portion of these stems, referred to as the coproduct, constitutes 30% of the total residue mass. Although this coproduct has been partially characterized in terms of its phytochemical profile, its technological applications remain unexplored.
