NewsCutting off parasite’s energy supply could help fight malaria
Once inside the body of an infected person, the malaria parasite relies on a process called glycolysis to produce energy and stay alive. Blocking the enzymes involved in this process could cut off the parasite’s primary energy source and kill it.

NewsEpstein-Barr virus worsens ulcerative colitis by triggering macrophage pyroptosis through glycolysis
The study shows that EBV infection activates pyroptosis in intestinal macrophages by upregulating glycolysis. This process leads to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which further damage the intestinal barrier and worsen colitis symptoms.

NewsPotential therapeutic target found to combat TB, a disrupted NAD(H) homeostasis
A study shows how Mycobacterium tuberculosis perturbs homeostasis of the high-energy molecule NADH and reprograms glycolysis in myeloid cells - highlighting glycolysis as a potential therapeutic target.
