A diet rich in the amino acid cysteine may have rejuvenating effects in the small intestine, according to a new study from ...

Amino acid transporters play a critical role in cellular metabolism by mediating the uptake of essential amino acids required for protein synthesis, energy production and cell signalling. In cancer, ...

Amino acid metabolism in the TIME. The TIME is shaped by metabolic competition between tumor and immune cells. Amino acids have key roles in modulating immune responses and tumor progression. (A) ...

A new study reveals that sucralose may reduce cancer treatment effectiveness, but supplementation could counteract the ...

This review illustrates amino acid metabolic reprogramming in breast cancer, highlighting its role in tumor progression and clinical applications, including diagnostic imaging, targeted therapies, ...

The tumor microenvironment is not just a site of cancer growth—it is a high-stakes metabolic contest where tumor and immune cells vie for limited resources. Amino acids, once seen as passive nutrients ...

MIT researchers discovered that a diet high in cysteine can accelerate the regeneration of the small intestine's lining, a ...

These cells also converted glucose into an amino acid called serine ... That work will also involve challenges and coordination. "Going through cancer treatment is hard. We're asking people to come up ...
