Systems Biology & Metabolic Signaling
Systems Biology & Metabolic Signaling examines how metabolic health is regulated at the cellular and pathway level. Articles in this category explore key signaling networks such as insulin, mTOR, AMPK, and nutrient sensing, focusing on how growth, repair, and energy allocation are coordinated across different physiological states. The goal is to clarify mechanisms often oversimplified in popular health discourse and to explain metabolic dysfunction through systems-level biology rather than isolated variables.
