Seahorse platform: the Agilent Seahorse Flux Analyser with integrated normalization system (FAFY) Vrije Universiteit Brussel
A cell has two main engines (metabolic pathways) to generate energy, i.e. the glycolytic pathway and the mitochondrial respiration. Depending on the available fuel (carbohydrates, proteins or lipids) these engines will operate at different power to ensure sufficient energy production. This metabolic flexibility is essential for survival in a dynamic environment. However, the bioenergetic
phenotype of a cell is not only adapting to changes in the environment or the energetic needs; it can in turn also be a determinant of the cell’s fate. Given that mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis ...
