    Determinants of sugar-induced influx in the mammalian fructose transporter GLUT5

    Sarah E McComas, Tom Reichenbach ... David Drew
    Computational approach shows that the occluded state in GLUT transporters is equivalent to the transition state of soluble enzymes and this has the highest affinity for the substrate sugar.

    Proteomic and transcriptomic profiling reveal different aspects of aging in the kidney

    Yuka Takemon, Joel M Chick ... Ron Korstanje
    mRNA profiling alone provides an incomplete picture of molecular aging and examination of changes in proteins is essential to understand aging processes that are not transcriptionally regulated.

    Weight loss, insulin resistance, and study design confound results in a meta-analysis of animal models of fatty liver

    Harriet Hunter, Dana de Gracia Hahn ... Jake P Mann
    Animal studies of fatty liver disease over-estimate the benefit of drugs due to publication bias and are confounded by off-target weight loss, illustrating the challenge of successful translational across species.

    Combined deletion of Glut1 and Glut3 impairs lung adenocarcinoma growth

    Caroline Contat, Pierre-Benoit Ancey ... Etienne Meylan
    In lung adenocarcinoma, deleting one glucose transporter, whether it is Glut1 or Glut3 is insufficient, whereas their dual deletion reduces tumor growth.

    A multi-hierarchical approach reveals d-serine as a hidden substrate of sodium-coupled monocarboxylate transporters

    Pattama Wiriyasermkul, Satomi Moriyama ... Shushi Nagamori
    An unbiased approach unveils a non-canonical substrate of the known transporters, highlighting the mechanism behind the use of D-serine as a kidney biomarker.
