## Abstract Butyrate, a shortβchain fatty acid produced by the colonic bacterial fermentation is able to induce cell growth inhibition and differentiation in colon cancer cells at least partially through its capacity to inhibit histone deacetylases. Since butyrate is expected to impact cellular met

We propose a simple mathematical model of liver S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) metabolism. Analysis of the model has shown that AdoMet metabolism can operate under two di!erent modes. The "rst, with low metabolic rate and low AdoMet concentration, serves predominantly to supply the cell with AdoMet,
The cell surface structure is highly dynamic. In particular, binding of ligand induces the redistribution of receptors on the cell surface as well as the internalisation of ligand-receptor complexes. Internalisation in turn leads to a recycling of the receptor or to a decrease in the cell's responsi
The prostate gland of humans and many other animals has the major function of accumulating and secreting extraordinarily high levels of citrate. This specialized metabolic process of ''net citrate production'' is the result of unique metabolic capabilities of the secretory epithelial cells. Most imp
