Muscle degeneration, the most prevalent cause of frailty in hereditary diseases and aging, could be caused by a deficiency in one key enzyme in a lipid biosynthesis pathway. Researchers now ...

A team of researchers from Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine) and Tsinghua ...

Researchers show that cancer cells in an acidic environment undergo lipid synthesis and accumulation. The team identified the key signaling molecules responsible for these changes and discovered that ...

Microalgae—which are major contributors to global photosynthesis and primary productivity—serve as promising chassis cells in synthetic biology. In a study published in Plant Communications, ...

Alterations in metabolic processes are a hallmark of cancer and can lead to a tumor environment that is acidic. As a result, cancer cells must adapt to survive in this inhospitable environment. In a ...
