Circadian Rhythms Metabolically Regulate Bone Marrow Retained Primitive Hematopoietic Stem Cell Size and Function (SDCC - Halls G-H) - Nov 3, 2023 - Abstract #ASH2023ASH_3612; Repeated administration of the glucose analog, 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG), during daylight mimicked the night phenotype and enhanced HSC engraftment potential...Our study reveals daily circadian cues dynamically determine Wnt-mediated FOXM1 bidirectional shuttling between the nucleus and the mitochondria, leading to metabolic switching of pHSCs to maintain their cellular fitness. Our data define key signaling pathways controlling pHSC quiescence and diverse circadian metabolic activities for accumulated ROS and old mitochondria clearance and turnover, keeping them ready for rapid activation in alarm situations.

Journal: Oxidative phosphorylation rather than glycolysis is the primary energy source for sperm motility in the mussels Mytilus edulis. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 29, 2023 Our results indicate that oligomycin, an inhibitor of the mitochondrial ATP synthase, immediately decreased sperm motility rate, velocity, and ATP content, while 2-deoxy-d-glucose, a glycolysis inhibitor, had no effect...Based on these findings, we conclude that OXPHOS is the primary energy source for sperm motility in marine mussels. Our study sheds light on the intricacies of mussel sperm physiology and highlights the importance of understanding the energy requirements for successful fertilization in broadcast-spawning marine invertebrates.

Preclinical, Journal: Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging in Preclinical Models of Glioblastoma. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 27, 2023 In this work, we evaluate the tumor activity in two preclinical glioblastoma models by using fluorochrome (IRDye 800CW) coupled to different molecules: tripeptide Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD), 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG), and polyethylene glycol (PEG)...Glioblastoma tumors were presently detected with specificity and sensitivity by utilizing IRDye 800CW RGD, a near-infrared fluorophore combined with a marker of ?v?3 integrin expression. Further research is needed on its capacity to monitor tumor growth in glioblastoma after chemotherapy.

Journal, IO biomarker: Fatty (Pubmed Central) - Oct 22, 2023 The oxidation rate of H-oleic acid and microglial uptake of H-2-deoxy-D-glucose were modulated with LPS activation, processes which were restored with genetic and chemical inhibition of FABP4. This is the first study to report on the critical role of FABP4 in mediating the deleterious effects of LPS on microglial immunometabolism, suggesting that FABP4 may present as a novel therapeutic target to alleviate microglia-mediated neuroinflammation, a commonly reported factor in multiple neurodegenerative diseases.

However, a direct comparison between their mode of action and its extrapolation into biochemical considerations should go beyond microscopic inspection and include complementary analytical techniques.

Journal: Structure and Metabolically Oriented Efficacy of Fucoidan from Brown Alga Sargassum muticum in the Model of Colony Formation of Melanoma and Breast Cancer Cells.

This work reports the detailed structure of fucoidan from Sargassum miticum (2SmF2) and its ability to potentiate the inhibitory effect of glycolysis inhibitor 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2-DG)...However, in combination with low non-cytotoxic concentrations of 2-DG (0.5 or 2 mM), 2SmF2 could effectively inhibit the colony formation of SK-MEL-28 and MDA-MB-231 cells and decreased the number of colonies by more than 50% compared to control at the concentration of 200

Journal: MAGED2 Depletion Promotes Stress-Induced Autophagy by Impairing the cAMP/PKA Pathway. (Pubmed Central) - Sep 13, 2023 Various other cellular stressors (brefeldin A, tunicamycin, 2-deoxy-D-glucose, and camptothecin) were analyzed, which all induced autophagy in the absence of MAGED2...In contrast to other MAGE proteins, MAGED2 has an inhibitory role on autophagy only under stress conditions. Hence, a prominent role of MAGED2 in the regulation of autophagy under stress conditions is evident, which may also contribute to impaired fetal renal salt reabsorption by promoting autophagy of salt-transporters in patients with MAGED2 mutation.

Preclinical, Journal: Dual Tracer Test to measure tissue-specific insulin action in individual mice identifies in vivo insulin resistance without fasting hyperinsulinemia. (Pubmed Central) - Sep 12, 2023 This report describes the Dual Tracer Test, a robust method involving sequential retro-orbital injection of 14C-2-deoxyglucose (14C-2DG) alone, followed 40 min later by injection of 3H-2DG with a maximal dose of insulin to quantify both basal and insulin-stimulated 2DG uptake in the same mouse...By administering two tracers and accounting for both basal and insulin-stimulated glucose transport, this assay halves the required sample size for studies in inbred mice and demonstrates increased statistical power to detect insulin resistance, relative to other established approaches using a single tracer. The Dual Tracer Test is a valuable addition to the metabolic phenotyping toolbox.

Therefore, we suggest that IA could be used against almost any subtype and that its cytotoxic effect could be due to the reactivation of apoptosis in breast cancer cells.

Journal: Effect of 2-deoxyglucose-mediated inhibition of glycolysis on migration and invasion of HTR-8/SVneo trophoblast cells. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 24, 2023 Moreover, 2-DG inhibited the EMT of HTR-8/SVneo cells, down-regulated the expression of invasion-related factors matrix metalloproteinase 2/9 (MMP2/9) and up-regulated the expression of tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases 1/2 (TIMP1/2), thus inhibiting cell migration and invasion. This paper provides a foundation in the significance of aerobic glycolysis of trophoblasts in the process of invasion, and also provides ideas and insights for the promotion of embryo implantation.

Journal: Glycolytic interference blocks influenza A virus propagation by impairing viral polymerase-driven synthesis of genomic vRNA. (Pubmed Central) - Jul 17, 2023 Using 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2-DG) we examined how well inhibition of glycolysis is tolerated by host cells and which step of the IAV life cycle is affected...At the same time, minigenome assays showed no signs of a general reduction of replicative capacity of the viral polymerase. Therefore, our data suggest that the significant reduction in IAV replication by glycolytic interference occurs mainly due to an impairment of the dynamic regulation of the viral polymerase which conveys the transition of the enzyme's function from transcription to replication.

Altogether, the results demonstrate that both curve fitting and phasor analysis of autofluorescence lifetime images can be used in machine learning models for classification of cell phenotype from the lifetime data.

(Pubmed Central) - Jul 14, 2023 We examined the effect of brain ghrelin on survival in a novel endotoxemic model achieved by treating rats with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and colchicine...Moreover, intracisternal injection of a ghrelin receptor antagonist blocked the improved survival achieved by intracisternal ghrelin injection or intravenous 2-deoxy-d-glucose administration...Accordingly, activation of the vagal pathway and adenosine A2B receptors in the brain may be implicated in the ghrelin-induced increased survival. Since the efferent vagus nerve mediates anti-inflammatory mechanisms, we speculate that the vagal cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway is implicated in the decreased septic lethality caused by brain ghrelin.

It appears that direct binding to deuterons increases the solid-state DNP polarization level of X-nuclei which are otherwise bound to protons.
