Energy Metabolism & Autophagy Assays
Energy metabolism, the central biochemical activity in all biological systems, comprises the overall network of enzyme catalyzed pathways and involves the maintenance of cellular and systemic viability of the organism. However, deviation from the normal, in the amount of metabolites produced and/or the activity of the enzymes involved, causes several biochemical disorders. For this reason, energy metabolism assays are of utmost importance.
Autophagy is a vital cellular response to stress or starvation. In the recent past, autophagy assays have witnessed unprecedented prominence in research and diagnosis of several diseases including cancer, due to their suggested physiological and pathophysiological roles.
Considering the tremendous significance of energy metabolism and autophagy assays in cancer metabolism and signal transduction, Stellixir provides outstanding research services in this regard.
