The Interplay of Metabolic Pathways and Cellular Signaling in the Regulation of Homeostasis and Disease

Abstract

Author(s):

The maintenance of cellular homeostasis is a complex and dynamic process involving intricate networks of metabolic pathways and cellular signaling mechanisms. This interplay is crucial for normal cellular function and organismal health. Disruptions in these processes can lead to various diseases, including metabolic disorders, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. This review provides an in-depth analysis of the key metabolic pathways and signaling networks involved in cellular homeostasis. We explore how their dysregulation contributes to disease pathogenesis and discuss potential therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways.
