Rethinking the regulation of cellular metabolism
Open accessAbstract
Most biologists working today have not considered the problem of how signal transduction events, which commit cells to energetically demanding processes such as growth and division, are connected to cellular metabolism. The primary reason for this is that we have believed for the last 30 or more years that the metabolism of cells is a homeostatic, self-regulating process that does not depend on any extracellular input. The traditional view is that a mammalian cell decides to take up nutrients whenever its bioenergetic and synthetic reserves are depleted. However, a considerable body of evidence now exists that challenges the notion that the nutrient uptake and metabolism of metazoan cells are cell-autonomous.

As glucose uptake and usage are under growth factor control, this observation raises the possibility that a basal level of TCA cycle oxidation in cells can persist independent of exogenous growth factor stimulation.
“As glucose uptake and usage are under growth factor control (58, 59, 60), this observation raises the possibility that a basal level of TCA cycle oxidation in cells can persist independent of exogenous growth factor stimulation.”
From Regulation and function of the mammalian tricarboxylic acid cycle (2023) · cites this paper as [59]
Normally metazoan cells do not import nutrients constitutively; nutrient uptake is strictly regulated by growth factor signaling.
“Normally, despite being surrounded by nutrient-rich plasma and the extracellular fluid, metazoan cells do not import nutrients in a constitutive manner. On the contrary, nutrient uptake is strictly regulated by growth factor signaling”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
