Bio-Energetic Pathways

Meaning

Bio-Energetic Pathways refer to the interconnected biochemical reaction sequences within the human body responsible for the production, transfer, and utilization of cellular energy, primarily in the form of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). These pathways are fundamental to all physiological processes, including endocrine signaling and cellular repair. Clinically, assessing the efficiency of these pathways, such as glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, provides critical insight into metabolic health and vitality. Optimal function is essential for maintaining hormonal homeostasis and supporting high-demand tissues like the brain and muscle.
