Metabolic Pathways: Health, Disease, and Therapeutic Targets
Received Date: Nov 03, 2025 / Published Date: Dec 01, 2025
Abstract
This work reviews key aspects of cellular and systemic metabolism in health and disease. It covers mitochondrial dysfunction in metabolic diseases, the influence of the gut microbiome, nutrient sensing pathways, altered cancer cell metabolism (Warburg effect), the role of autophagy, adipose tissue function, metabolic changes in aging, and advanced analytical techniques like metabolic flux analysis. The regulation and dysregulation of fundamental pathways such as glycolysis and lipid metabolism are also discussed, highlighting their implications for various pathologies and potential therapeutic strategies
