Glucose metabolism and metabolic flexibility in blood platelets (2018)
Journal Article
Aibibula, M., Naseem, K. M., & Sturmey, R. (2018). Glucose metabolism and metabolic flexibility in blood platelets. Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis : JTH, 16(11), 2300-2314. https://doi.org/10.1111/jth.14274

The metabolic integration processes required for platelet activation are unclear. The metabolic plasticity of human platelets were investigated. Activated platelets exhibit a glycolytic phenotype while preserving mitochondrial function. Platelets can... Read More about Glucose metabolism and metabolic flexibility in blood platelets.

The effect of Glucose Concentration (5.6 mM vs. 17 mM) During IVM on Developmental and Metabolic Markers of Equine Cumulus-oocyte Complex Function (2018)
Journal Article
Lewis, N., Hinrichs, K., Brison, D., Sturmey, R., & McG. Argo, C. (2018). The effect of Glucose Concentration (5.6 mM vs. 17 mM) During IVM on Developmental and Metabolic Markers of Equine Cumulus-oocyte Complex Function. Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 66, 181. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2018.05.073

Both M199 and DMEM/F-12 support in vitro maturation (IVM) of equine oocytes and production of viable embryos after ICSI. However, these media differ markedly in glucose concentration: 5.6 mM (M199) vs. 17 mM (DMEM/F-12). Given the known impact of emb...
