Hepatic hexose transport was characterized using 3-O-methyl-D-glucose, which is not metabolized by the liver. The kinetic parameters determined in the starved state were taken as basal values for the transport system which showed saturation kinetics with high Vmax and Km values of 161 nmol/mg dry
We investigated the effects of prolonged hypoxia on the sugar uptake in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L. var. MP-1) roots. Hydroponic cultures of whole tomato plants were submitted to hypoxic treatment for 1 week, and the roots were analyzed for sugar concentrations, hexose uptake and hexose
Elevated growth in breast cancer (BC) activates hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF1α) and downstream, facilitative glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), which can be visualized with 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-d-glucose ([18F]FDG). GLUT5 (fructose) and GLUT2 (glucose/fructose) might provide alternative targets for BC
We studied the effects of decreased aeration, chloramphenicol succinate, and 2,4-dinitrophenol on the cellular rates of glycogen synthesis and glucose utilization and on the cellular concentrations of adenine nucleotides, glucose 6-phosphate, fructose 1,6-diphosphate, and phosphoenolpyruvate during
Endogenous concentrations of hexosemonophosphates and ATP decline sharply and rapidly in intact cells of Acer pseudoplatanus subjected to anoxia, whereas fructose-1,6-diphosphate and pyruvate accumulate markedly. In view of gas exchange data indicating an apparent acceleration of glycolysis under
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to investigate the importance of pyrophosphate (PPi) for plant metabolism and survival under low oxygen stress. Responses of roots of wild-type potato plants were compared with roots of transgenic plants containing decreased amounts of PPi as a result of the
Glycolysis was assessed in the rat heart during the perinatal period: in the fetus of 16.5 days postcoitum (dpc) and 21.5 dpc (term = 22 dpc) and in the newborn of 1 day postpartum (dpp) and 7 dpp. Glucose uptake, lactate production and glucose incorporation into glycogen were much higher in the
Both the anabolic hormone insulin and contractile activity stimulate the uptake of glucose into mammalian skeletal muscle. In this study, we examined the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), a putative mediator of insulin actions, in the stimulation of hexose uptake in response to
Hypoxic pretreatment of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum M.) roots induced an acclimation to anoxia. Survival in the absence of oxygen was improved from 10 h to more than 36 h if external sucrose was present. The energy charge value of anoxic tissues increased during the course of hypoxic
1. Incubation of hepatocytes from fed or starved rats with increasing glucose concentrations caused a stimulation of lactate production, which was further increased under anaerobic conditions. 2. When glycolysis was stimulated by anoxia, [fructose 2,6-bis-phosphate] was decreased, indicating that
The role of calmoudulin in control of carbohydrate metabolism in the absence and presence of insulin in isolated mouse soleus muscle was investigated. The calmodulin antagonist CGS 9343B had no effect on basal glycogen synthase activity, the contents of high energy phosphates, glucose-6-P, or
Effects of glucose concentration and anoxia upon the metabolite concentrations and rates of glycolysis and respiration have been investigated in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig. In most cases the metabolite concentrations in the perfused liver were similar to those observed in vivo.
Preexposure to hypoxia increased survival and lung reduced glutathione-to-oxidized glutathione ratios (GSH/GSSG) and decreased pleural effusions in rats subsequently exposed to continuous hyperoxia. In addition, lungs from hypoxia-preexposed rats developed less acute edematous injury (decreased lung
