This study aimed at developing a method for administration of 18F-Fludeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) in the common octopus and micro-positron emission tomography (micro-PET) bio-distribution assay for the characterization of glucose metabolism in body organs and regenerating tissues. Methods: Seven animals (two with one regenerating arm) were...

Background: Selective deprivation of glutamine has been shown to accelerate the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to impair the activity of a specific pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) located within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The consequent oxidative damage suggests that glucose flux through this reticular pathway might...

Simple Summary Background: Previous studies reported mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) redox stress in Circulating mononucleated cells (PBMCs) of patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) display an oxidative damage to the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we assessed whether the redox stress also characterizes tissues not directly involved in...
