Cancer is a leading cause of death in the world, and the mechanisms that underlie this disease are still not completely understood. As cancer develops and progresses, cells undergo a diversity of mutations that sustain their rapid proliferation and the eva ...
Over the last decades, yeast has become a key model organism for the study of lipid biochemistry. Because the regulation of lipids has been closely linked to various physiopathologies, the study of these biomolecules could lead to new diagnostics and treat ...
Metabolism is a network of biotransformations that sustain life in cells. Over the past decades, metabolism has been studied in multiple contexts, ranging from medicine to industrial manufacturing. In particular, lipid metabolism has been linked to various ...

Cancer is a leading cause of death in the world, and the mechanisms underlying this disease are still not completely understood. In the last decades, altered tumour metabolism has been recognized as a hallmark of cancer. This has created a resurgence of in ...
In the last years, the analysis of cellular metabolism has sparked new interest in systems biology and metabolic modelling. In particular, modelling the phenotypes of healthy and diseased cells will help to understand the main metabolic characteristics of ...
Altered metabolism is associated with many human diseases. Human genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) were reconstructed within systems biology to study the biochemistry occurring in human cells. However, the complexity of these networks hinders a consiste ...
