Recent advances in the field of immunometabolism support concept that fundamental processes T cell biology, such as TCR-mediated activation and helper lineage differentiation, are closely linked to changes cellular metabolic programs. Although major task intermediate metabolism is provide with a constant supply energy molecular precursors for production biomolecules, dynamic regulation pathways also plays an active role shaping responses. Key glycolysis, fatty acid mitochondrial now recognized crucial players their modulation can differentially affect development lineages. In this review, we describe diverse cells engage during life cycle from naïve towards effector memory cells. We consider particular how may actively function different states. Moreover, discuss regulators mTOR or AMPK link environmental adaptations elucidate consequences on differentiation function.

Cancer cells are frequently confronted with metabolic stress in tumor microenvironments due to their rapid growth and limited nutrient supply. Metabolic induces cell death through ROS-induced apoptosis. However, cancer can adapt it by altering the pathways. AMPK AKT two primary effectors response stress: acts as an energy-sensing factor which rewires metabolism maintains redox balance. broadly promotes energy production abundance milieu, but role of under is dispute. Recent studies show that display antagonistic roles stress. stress-induced ROS signaling lies hub between reprogramming homeostasis. Here, we highlight cross-talk regulation on elimination, summarizes mechanism adaptability suggests potential options for therapeutics.

Cancer is a problem with worldwide importance and the second leading cause of death globally. cells reprogram their metabolism to support uncontrolled expansion by increasing biomass (anabolic metabolism—glycolysis) at expense energy (bioenergetics-mitochondrial function) requirements. In this aspect, metabolic reprogramming stands out as key biological process in understanding conversion normal cell into neoplastic precursor. Quercetin major representative flavonoid subclass flavonols. ubiquitously present fruits vegetables, being one most common dietary flavonols western diet. The anti-cancer effects quercetin include its ability promote loss viability, apoptosis autophagy through modulation PI3K/Akt/mTOR, Wnt/β-catenin, MAPK/ERK1/2 pathways. review, we discuss role cancer metabolism, addressing specifically target molecular pathways involved glucose mitochondrial function.

Cells metabolize nutrients for biosynthetic and bioenergetic needs to fuel growth proliferation. The uptake of from the environment their intracellular metabolism is a highly controlled process that involves cross talk between signaling metabolic pathways. Despite constant fluctuations in nutrient availability environmental signals, normal cells restore homeostasis maintain cellular functions prevent disease. A central molecule integrates with mechanistic target rapamycin (mTOR). mTOR protein kinase responds levels signals. forms two complexes, mTORC1, which sensitive rapamycin, mTORC2, not directly inhibited by this drug. Rapamycin has facilitated discovery various mTORC1 metabolism. Genetic models disrupt either or mTORC2 have expanded our knowledge cellular, tissue, as well systemic Nevertheless, regulation particularly metabolism, lagged behind. Since an important cancer, aging, other metabolism-related pathologies, understanding distinct overlapping complexes vital development more effective therapeutic strategies. This review discusses key discoveries recent findings on complexes.
