Leveraging genome-scale metabolic models for human health applications.

TL;DR: This review focuses on recent application of GEMs to studying cancer and the human microbiome by describing the enabling methodologies and outcomes of these studies and proposing some areas of research that are likely to arise as a result of recent methodological advances.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated Analysis of Cancer Tissue and Vitreous Humor from Retinoblastoma Eyes Reveals Unique Tumor-Specific Metabolic and Cellular Pathways in Advanced and Non-Advanced Tumors

TL;DR: An integrated omics analysis of the transcriptomics and metabolomics of Rb uncovered a significantly altered tumor-specific metabolic circuit that reduces its dependence on glycolytic pathways and is governed by Rb1 and HK1.
Journal ArticleDOI

The regulatory landscape of retinoblastoma: a pathway analysis perspective

TL;DR: This work reanalyse a dataset that contains normal retina samples to identify the individual genes whose expression is different in Rb in contrast with normal tissue, and determined the pathways whose global expression pattern is more distant from the global expression observed in normal tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lack of Retinoblastoma Protein Shifts Tumor Metabolism from Glycolysis to OXPHOS and Allows the Use of Alternate Fuels

TL;DR: RB1 or HK1 are demonstrated as critical regulators of the cellular bioenergetic profile and identify the altered tumor metabolism as a potential therapeutic target for cancers lacking functional Rb protein.

Constraint-Based Reconstruction and Analyses of Metabolic Models: Open-Source Python Tools and Applications to Cancer

TL;DR: This review summarizes the availability of Python software for several components of COBRA methods and their applications in cancer metabolism and concludes that these tools are evolving rapidly and should offer a readily accessible, versatile way to model the intricacies of cancer metabolism.

Lysophosphatidic Acid Acyltransferase-β Is a Prognostic Marker and Therapeutic Target in Gynecologic Malignancies

TL;DR: It is reported that elevated expression of LPAAT-beta was associated with reduced survival in ovarian cancer and earlier progression of disease in ovarian and endometrial cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fast-SL: an efficient algorithm to identify synthetic lethal sets in metabolic networks

TL;DR: An algorithm, Fast-SL, is proposed, which surmounts the computational complexity of previous approaches by iteratively reducing the search space for synthetic lethals, resulting in a substantial reduction in running time, even for higher order synthetic lethality analysis.

Taurine and GABA in the rat retina during postnatal development

TL;DR: Taurine-IR was lost from horizontal cells and most amacrine cells around day 10, and appeared in bipolar cells, where it remained, with that in photoreceptors, into adulthood.
