Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move remain unclear. Research published in the Biophysical Journal shows that ...

They also zoomed in on a key enzyme called ACLY. Think of it as a middleman that helps convert glucose into a form cells can use to grow and divide. By disrupting this enzyme, researchers could see ...

For cancer- and infection-fighting T cells, glucose offers far more than a simple sugar rush. A new discovery by Van Andel Institute scientists reveals that glucose, an essential cellular fuel that ...

A study in mice showed how T2D drug metformin exerts multiple clinical effects through selective inhibition of mitochondrial ...

Just as smart traffic management ensures smooth vehicular movement during peak hours, our body relies on a molecular traffic system to manage the surge in glucose levels after a meal. Pancreatic ...

This illustration depcits the study's central finding that red blood cells act as a previously unrecognized sink for blood glucose, absorbing sugar from the bloodstream at a scale that can influence ...
