The specific metabolic pathways that increase neuron regeneration in ogt-1 mutant C. elegans following in vivo laser axotomy, highlighting the potential power for such metabolic targets in the treatment of neuronal injury.
SIRT1, a cellular metabolic sensor, transcriptionally promotes sphingomyelin degradation in embryonic stem cells, which in turn modulates their membrane fluidity and neural differentiation.

The amination network for the distribution of assimilated ammonium throughout metabolism is defined by promiscuous transaminases, allowing a high flexibility of the network that supported engineering novel connections and even alternative ammonium assimilation entry points.
A gaseous signaling molecule hydrogen sulfide stimulates mitochondrial bioenergetics, maintains glutathione redox poise, and suppresses ROS to subvert viral rebound in latently infected CD4+ T cells from HIV subjects.
A novel metabolic network analysis method enables large-scale computational predictions of biosynthetic capabilities across the human oral microbiome, revealing a unique cluster of fastidious microorganisms and potential metabolic interdependencies.
The redox reagent dithiothreitol causes toxicity by depleting S-adenosylmethionine levels, and dietary vitamin B12 could alleviate this toxicity via the methionine synthase enzyme.
