Fully understanding the complex process of the integration and control of metabolism in cellular organisms requires knowledge in several fundamental concepts. Drawing on nearly two decades of innovative studies, Doctors Naa Adamafio, Laud Okine, and Jonathan Adjimani specifically target the intricacies of metabolism and provide a comprehensive approach to the subject. The text is divided into three essential areas of study: Fundamentals of metabolic control--dealing with the basic concepts of metabolic control and the role played by regulatory enzymes Control of cellular metabolism--including the regulation of the metabolism of major biomolecules, such as carbohydrates, lipids, and compounds containing nitrogen The integration of metabolism--observing the methods in which various metabolic pathways within and between tissues and organs are integrated Whether you are an undergraduate student in biochemistry, a medical student in your preclinical years, or a teacher in the subject area, Integration and Control of Metabolism is a valuable medical resource.

Genetic alterations in cancer, in addition to being the fundamental drivers of tumorigenesis, can give rise to a variety of metabolic adaptations that allow cancer cells to survive and proliferate in diverse tumor microenvironments. This metabolic flexibility is different from normal cellular metabolic processes and leads to heterogeneity in cancer metabolism within the same cancer type or even within the same tumor. In this book, we delve into the complexity and diversity of cancer metabolism, and highlight how understanding the heterogeneity of cancer metabolism is fundamental to the development of effective metabolism-based therapeutic strategies. Deciphering how cancer cells utilize various nutrient resources will enable clinicians and researchers to pair specific chemotherapeutic agents with patients who are most likely to respond with positive outcomes, allowing for more cost-effective and personalized cancer therapeutic strategies.

An introductory text on the scientific basis of nutrition and metabolism, which are topics fundamental to the study of health and human science. It provides a firm grounding in the chemistry and biochemistry necessary to understand the subject clearly.; This book is intended for undergraduate students in human biology and the health and medical sciences. The book should be useful for reference by Project 2000 and other diploma students in nursing and the paramedical sciences, but is unlikely to be a class text with those groups.

The book addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited. This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. Support for this position is derived from critical assessment of current cancer theories. Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate.
