Decreased expression of the mitochondrial BCAT protein correlates with improved patient survival in IDH-WT gliomas (2016)
Journal Article
Ellis, H. P., Williams, M., Hull, J., Conway, M. E., Hull, J., El Hindy, M., …Kurian, K. M. (2016). Decreased expression of the mitochondrial BCAT protein correlates with improved patient survival in IDH-WT gliomas. Brain Pathology, 26(6), 789-791. https://doi.org/10.1111/bpa.12385

Background and research question: Gliomas represent 43% of all solid intracranial tumours, of which glioblastomas have the poorest prognosis. Recently, the human cytosolic branched-chain aminotransferase protein (hBCATc), which metabolises the branch...

© 2016, The Author(s). Cytosolic and mitochondrial human branched chain aminotransferase (hBCATc and hBCATm, respectively) play an integral role in brain glutamate metabolism. Regional increased levels of hBCATc in the CA1 and CA4 region of Alzheimer...
