Pyruvate is produced by glycolysis, a process in which carbohydrates are broken down to create energy. Calcium pyruvate is a popular supplement that many people use primarily for its purported weight ...

Cancer cells are often described as “glutamine addicted,” relying heavily on this amino acid to fuel growth. But new research reveals how some tumors sidestep this vulnerability.

Endogenous pyruvate is an end-product in glycolysis and a key molecule for ATP production under aerobic and anaerobic conditions, whereas exogenous pyruvate is transferred to cells via monocarboxylate ...

The purpose of this report is to present the findings in a group of 20 patients with pulmonary insufficiency, all but 2 of whom had arterial oxygen tensions below 50 mm. of mercury. The 20 subjects ...

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for Priority Review the New Drug Application for SL1009 (sodium dichloroacetate oral solution) for the treatment of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex ...

Image Caption: Pyruvate inhibits TNFα/NF-κB signaling and the expression of downstream pro-inflammatory genes. Genes & Diseases publishes rigorously peer-reviewed and high quality original articles ...

A research group at the University of Lausanne (Unil) has identified a new mechanism that exposes the vulnerability of tumor ...

Chemists have developed an organic catalyst that can drive reactions using pyruvate -- a key biomolecule in many metabolic pathways -- that are difficult and complicated to achieve using conventional ...
