Recent studies indicate that nutrient-sensing mechanisms in the body activate negative-feedback systems to regulate energy and glucose homeostasis through a neuronal network. Direct metabolic ...

Sugars are highly energetic macronutrients and an essential part of diet for many animals. Excessive consumption of dietary sugars has been associated with increased risk for metabolic diseases in ...

The human brain analyses nutrient-related and hormonal signals of the body periphery and controls by hunger and saturation induction the energy homeostasis. This central nervous control is complex and ...

Nature Metabolism will publish work from across all fields of metabolism research that significantly advances our understanding of metabolic and homeostatic processes in a cellular or broader ...

Peptides have emerged as a fascinating class of biomolecules with multifaceted roles across biological systems. Vesugen, a ...

The McWilliams Lab investigates the regulation of physiological autophagy, a membrane-driven lysosomal recycling mechanism essential for cellular and tissue homeostasis. Dysregulation of autophagy is ...

How is the organ size, shape and cellular composition determined in alternating environmental conditions or after injury? How does a stem cell know its position in a tissue, and how the positional ...

A groundbreaking study has revealed a surprising biochemical connection between plant immune responses and human neurological health. Researchers have discovered that the metabolic pathways regulating ...

"RNAkine has become increasingly prominent in regulating glucose homeostasis. In the future, RNAkines will bring great hope for the diagnosis and treatment of metabolic diseases such as T2DM." ...

A study led by a team of researchers at the University of Kentucky's Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and ...

Physical activity is not only important for fitness, but also for health. This is confirmed by a new study conducted under ...
