Download or read book The Heterogeneity of Cancer Metabolism written by Anne Le and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic alterations in cancer, in addition to being the fundamental drivers of tumorigenesis, can give rise to a variety of metabolic adaptations that allow cancer cells to survive and proliferate in diverse tumor microenvironments. This metabolic flexibility is different from normal cellular metabolic processes and leads to heterogeneity in cancer metabolism within the same cancer type or even within the same tumor. In this book, we delve into the complexity and diversity of cancer metabolism, and highlight how understanding the heterogeneity of cancer metabolism is fundamental to the development of effective metabolism-based therapeutic strategies. Deciphering how cancer cells utilize various nutrient resources will enable clinicians and researchers to pair specific chemotherapeutic agents with patients who are most likely to respond with positive outcomes, allowing for more cost-effective and personalized cancer therapeutic strategies.

Download or read book Cellular Energy Metabolism and its Regulation written by Bozzano G Luisa and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cellular Energy Metabolism and Its Regulation examines the metabolic and molecular aspects of living organisms. Beginning with a discussion of evolutionary design and its close analogy with human design, it emphasizes the notion that evolution is a process of functional design, and that the characteristics of an organism, whether morphological or molecular, were selected because of functional advantage to the organism's ancestors. Thus, the study of an enzyme, a reaction, or a sequence can be biologically relevant only if its position in the hierarchy of function is kept in mind. This book deals with some aspects of metabolism from that point of view. The key concepts discussed include the conservation of solvent capacity and energy; functional stoichiometric coupling and metabolic prices; adenylate control and the adenylate energy charge; aspects of enzyme behavior that appear to be related to metabolic control; interactions between metabolic sequences; and the adenylate energy charge in intact cells. This book was designed for graduate students in biochemistry, physiology, microbiology, and related fields. However, it may also be useful to senior undergraduate students and more advanced workers who have a direct or peripheral interest in energy metabolism. It assumes a general familiarity with the material covered in a standard biochemistry textbook as well as some knowledge of such related areas as genetics.

This book was released on 2013-12-22 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is very easy reading and took me back to previous biology courses. The author questions the role of certain parts of the cell. The chapters on food chemistry with emphasis on vitamins and their role in our everyday life were quite illuminating. I believe that Leonard Sonnenschein has given us new insight into the metabolism of plants and animals." Nathaniel H. Murdock, M. D. Past President of the National Medical Association Associate Professor at the Washington University School of Medicine Board certified in obstetrics-gynecology Description: Everything you learned about metabolism in your first science class is wrong! Every generation has become astounded by the advances in science within their generation. This book will review what is known about cellular metabolism and how it governs your health. You will then be amazed how the absorption of nutrients affects your wellness, your beauty and longevity. You will also find out that most nutritional supplements, most cosmetics and, indeed, most pharmaceuticals are not designed for optimal absorption, therefore you are not getting the necessary nutrition and other products that you expect and need for the best life. You will find out about BOOSTER, which is based on an organic and natural process of the cell that can change your life, and how it's technology can be included in your consumer choice of the nutritional, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products you use. Come explore this fascinating discovery that can help you! *Proceeds from the sale of this book go to support the World Aquarium and its Conservation for the Oceans Foundation In this book, we lay out a detailed analysis of how the cell works and presented a new theory that the cell is not controlled by the nucleus, but rather by the cell wall. We then show the logic of this mechanism for modulation of immunity, nutritional status, transmission from extra cellular status to intercellular delivery, and the data supporting this new theory. When using this mechanistic understanding of this new metabolic pathway for plants and animals, it necessitates the change in most formulations for improved active ingredient action of the products we use for nutrition, cosmetics, animal and plant culture, and health. To improve cellular action, the ionic consistency of the active ingredient(s) need to balance with the intracellular status. Furthermore, if the desired active ingredient for intracellular transmission is larger than the normal size pore of the cell being targeted, then a transitory delivery mechanism needs to be employed. BOOSTER is such a mechanism. Results from independent laboratory trials show that BOOSTER's delivery methodology can yield ten times the absorption of large molecule products into the cell for metabolic transmission. Additional studies for the past 20 years have shown that GroFish's ionic assaults to the cell wall can stimulate improved cell states such as immunity, growth, hormonal and energy status. This translates to improved methods of agriculture and aquaculture. Indeed, this methodology can deliver healthier animals, more nutritious food products and be beneficial to the environment. We, as consumers, can participate in this health and sustainability revolution by demanding that the products we eat, use for wellness and cosmetics include BOOSTER and GroFish technology.

Book excerpt: "Metabolic pathways used to be "road maps" most biologists learned as undergraduates and then promptly forgot. Recent work has revealed how changes in metabolism are closely linked to many aspects of cell behavior and the development of cancer and other diseases. This book represents both a new look at metabolism and a refresher course. It surveys the major metabolic pathways, places these in biological context, and highlights the key control points that control cell behavior and can become dysregulated in disease"--
Download or read book Hemolytic Anemia in Disorders of Red Cell Metabolism written by Ernest Beutler and published by Springer. This book was released on 1978-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am prepared to predict that this monograph by Dr. Ernest Beutler will long serve as a model for monographs dealing with topics in medical science. I make this bold statement because we encounter in this work a degree of accuracy and authoritativeness well beyond that found in much of the medical literature. Too often, a monograph is simply a review of past reviews. The preparation of an exhaustive and completely accurate study such as the present one is a very laborious task; consequently, many authors make extensive use of the reviews of earlier writers assum ing that the latter have checked and evaluated each previously published report. Unfortunately, however, this assumption of validity has not al ways been correct. Dr. Beutler, who is a world authority on the subject about which he writes, was determined to make this book as correct and complete as possible, and, to this end, has checked all the original sources. Nowhere else will such an exhaustive bibliography be found. Moreover, he has also undertaken to reevaluate in the light of current knowledge material pub lished in earlier days. This he is eminently able to do, and in some in stances his investigations have resulted in new interpretations. The result is a volume that will be recognized as truly the last word on this important subject.

Download or read book Red Cell Metabolism and Function written by George Brewer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last six years, a remarkable series of stUdies have demonstrated an intimate relationship between red cell metabolism and the function of the cell as an organ of gas transport. First came the demonstration of binding of organic phosphocompounds of the red cell to hemoglobin; this was followed by studies that demonstrated modification of hemoglobin oxygen affinity by such binding. At present we are in an exhilirating phase of accrual of data showing that the levels of these phosphorylated inter mediates can be rapidly altered in the red cell to modulate hemo globin function. At one time it was said that the red cell was an inert bag full of hemoglobin. Now we know not only that the cell has an active metabolism crucial to its viability, but that this metabolism is just as crucial to the whole organism in the proper adjustment of oxygen transport. On October first, second and third, 1969, red cell biochemists, general biochemists, geneticists, cardio-pulmonary physiologists, exercise physiologists, experts in blood storage, and represen tatives from many other disciplines met in the Towsley Center for Continuing Medical Education at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, to present recent findings and discuss developments in this new interdisciplinary field. The meeting was dedicated to Dr. Alfred Chanutin, Professor Emeritus of the University of Virginia, to honor his retirement in 1967 and in recognition of his great contributions to the studies outlined in the first paragraph of this preface.
