This study unveils PKM2 as a master metabolic coordinator in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), governing the glycolysis-lipolysis balance through the AMPK/KLF4/ACADVL axis. We demonstrate stage-specific PKM2 upregulation in TNBC, with CRISPR/Cas9 knockout inducing dual metabolic reprogramming-suppressed glycolysis and activated lipid catabolism. Mechanistically, PKM2 ablation triggers AMPK-dependent nuclear translocation of KLF4, which directly activates ACADVL (mitochondrial β-oxidation rate-limiting enzyme), explaining lipid droplet depletion.

Aims: Emerging resistance to Lenvatinib, which is used as a first-line agent for the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is still a concern. The aim of this study was to determine core factors of Lenvatinib resistance (LR) and their underlying molecular mechanisms.
Methods: CRISPR screening in HCC cells was conducted, which identified E3 ubiquitin ligase deltex 2 (DTX2) as a core LR-related gene.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder with uncleared mechanisms. Short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase 1 (ECHS1) is a mitochondrial enzyme critical for the β-oxidation of fatty acids and ATP production. This study aims to explore the roles of ECHS1 in PD by using rotenone-induced experimental PD models.

Peroxisomes are organelles that are crucial for cellular metabolism, but they also play important roles in non-metabolic processes such as signalling, stress response or antiviral defense. To uncover the consequences of peroxisome deficiency, we compared wild-type with cells, which lack peroxisomes, employing quantitative proteomics and transcriptomics technologies. Cells were grown on acetate, a carbon source that requires peroxisomal enzymes of the glyoxylate cycle to generate energy and essential carbohydrates, and that does not repress the expression of peroxisomal genes.

Yeast, a natural starter culture, is widely used to improve digestion function in ruminants. However, whether yeast affects the physiological state of the liver in ruminants is currently unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of yeast on liver metabolic status and physiological functions of Hu sheep during lactation.
