Imported from CultureMech pipeline, quality=DIRECT_MATCH

LITERATURE SUPPORTvia PubMed search ('Glucose') PMID:33811729
Removal of EGF from culture medium reduced growth rates and glucose/glutamine consumption in control HMECs despite limited changes in respiration and fatty acid synthesis, while the relative contribution of branched-chain amino acids to the TCA cycle and lipogenesis increased in the near-quiescent conditions.

2026-08-13T00:00:00+00:00 merge_glucose_family MERGED_FROM Absorbed 'glucose' (#320/#334), which sat on CHEBI:42758 ('aldehydo-D-glucose'). Merged because this record differs from the winner only in the case of its first letter, and was grounded to CHEBI:42758 'aldehydo-D-glucose' — the open-chain form — which a bare 'glucose' label does not name. Both records carry the same CAS 50-99-7 and the same formula C6H12O6. Four MIM records for glucose carried the identical CAS and formula while sitting on four different ChEBI terms, split only by where lexical matching landed. Occurrences 1638/50 + 34/34 -> 1672/84. Raw label kept as a RAW_TEXT synonym.

The prior values came from the importer retired in #453, whose media_count counted a list truncated to 50 examples (#449).
