Regulation of energy metabolism in human pluripotent stem cells

Cell Mol Life Sci. 2021 Nov 13. doi: 10.1007/s00018-021-04016-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAll living organisms need energy to carry out their essential functions. The importance of energy metabolism is increasingly recognized in human pluripotent stem cells. Energy production is not only essential for cell survival and proliferation, but also critical for pluripotency and cell fate determination. Thus, energy metabolism is an important target in cellular regulation and stem cell applications. In this review, we will discuss key factors that influence energy metabolism and their association with stem cell functions.PMID:34773132 | DOI:10.1007/s00018-021-04016-0
