Metabolic substrate utilization by tumour and host tissues in cancer cachexia.
Utilization of metabolic substrates in tumour and host tissues was determined in the presence or absence of two colonic tumours, the MAC16, which is capable of inducing cachexia in recipient animals, and the MAC13, which is of the same histological type, but without the effect on host body composition. Glucose utilization by different tissues was determined in vivo by the 2-deoxyglucose tracer ...
متن کاملColonization-Induced Host-Gut Microbial Metabolic Interaction
UNLABELLED The gut microbiota enhances the host's metabolic capacity for processing nutrients and drugs and modulate the activities of multiple pathways in a variety of organ systems. We have probed the systemic metabolic adaptation to gut colonization for 20 days following exposure of axenic mice (n = 35) to a typical environmental microbial background using high-resolution (1)H nuclear magnet...
متن کاملCachexia and tumour necrosis factor-alpha in cytomegalovirus infection.
Although cachexia is a common feature of cytomegalovirus infection, little is known about its cause. To explore any contributory role that tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) might have the serum concentrations of TNF in eight patients who developed CMV disease after liver transplantation were investigated. All patients exhibited pronounced and long lasting increases in TNF serum concentrations....
متن کاملMetabolic signatures imaged in cancer-induced cachexia.
Cancer-induced cachexia is a complex and poorly understood life-threatening syndrome that is characterized by progressive weight loss due to metabolic alterations, depletion of lipid stores, and severe loss of skeletal muscle protein. Gaining the ability to noninvasively image the presence or onset of cachexia is important to better treat this condition, to improve the design and optimization o...
متن کاملL-carnitine and cancer cachexia. I. L-carnitine distribution and metabolic disorders in cancer cachexia.
Cancer cachexia (CC), a progressive loss of body mass, is associated with decreased energy production. Abnormally low levels of L-carnitine (LC) in skeletal muscle means that mitochondrial β-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) does not occur efficiently in patients with CC. We assessed the influence of CC on LC distribution and the effects of parenteral lipid emulsions on plasma LC level...
