Neuregulin (NRG), which structurally belongs to an EGF family of growth factors, activated in acute manner signaling cascades that lead to changes in whole-body glucose metabolism in fasted mice. Besides ...
Polat, Ibrahim H. (Fecha de defensa: 2016-11-04)
In this thesis, tumor metabolic reprogramming has been exploited in order to propose new targets in cancer treatment. On one hand, we explored the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) enzymes as putative ...
