This study evaluated the kinetic signature of toxicity of four heavy metals known to cause severe health and environmental issues—cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg) lead (Pb) arsenic (As)—and the mixture of all four metals (Mix) on MCF7 cancer cells, in the...
This review summarizes the current state of knowledge about the metabolism of cancer cells, especially with respect to the “Warburg” and “Crabtree” effects. This work also summarizes two key discoveries, one of which relates to hexokinase-2 (HK2), a...
It is still unclear whether or how quercetin influences the toxic events induced by acetaldehyde in hepatocytes, though quercetin has been reported to mitigate alcohol-induced mouse liver injury. In this study, we evaluated the modulating effect of q...
