N6‐isopentenyladenosine inhibits aerobic glycolysis in glioblastoma cells by targeting PKM2 expression and activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a primary tumor in the central nervous system with poor prognosis. It exhibits elevated glucose uptake and lactate production. This metabolic state of aerobic glycolysis is known as the Warburg effect. N6‐isopentenyladenosine (iPA),

Loss of α-Synuclein Does Not Affect Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in Rodent Neurons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Increased α-synuclein (αsyn) and mitochondrial dysfunction play central roles in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), and lowering αsyn is under intensive investigation as a therapeutic strategy for PD. Increased αsyn levels disrupt mitochondria

Targeted Degradation of eEF2K by a Structure‐Guided PROTAC Strategy for the Treatment of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed an eEF2K‐targeting PROTAC, A6, that efficiently degrades eEF2K in TNBC cells, inhibiting tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. To enhance tumor‐specific delivery, we engineered A6@ZIF‐8, a pH‐sensitive nanocarrier, which improved drug accumulation at tumor sites, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for TNBC through targeted ...

Explicit consideration of topological and parameter uncertainty gives new insights into a well-established model of glycolysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Previous models of glycolysis in the sleeping sickness parasite Trypanosoma brucei assumed that the core part of glycolysis in this unicellular parasite is tightly compartimentalized within an organelle, the glycosome, which had previously been shown to ...

Hub genes and diagnostic model associated with mitochondrial function in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, and mitochondrial dysfunction has been confirmed in AD patients and mouse models. However, the pathogenic genes associated with AD and early diagnostic methods based on mitochondrial function remain to be explored.

Medium alkalization due to carbon metabolism is largely responsible for inhibition of bacterial growth by Vibrio cholerae supernatants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of the diarrheal disease cholera. Many Vibrio species secrete antimicrobial factors, though the identity of such a factor has not been determined for any V. cholerae strain.

Linezolid‐mediated Prevention of Fibroblast Activation and Tissue Fibrosis via Mitochondrial Translation Inhibition

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Beyond its role as a ribosome‐targeting antibiotic, linezolid was recently shown to modulate immune responses by inhibiting mitochondrial translation. Because mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in various fibrotic diseases, including systemic sclerosis (SSc), this study aimed to evaluate the antifibrotic potential of linezolid and ...

Industrial strategies to minimize glycerol formation in ethanol fermentation by conventional Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Industrial ethanol production faces the challenge of balancing metabolic efficiency with the minimization of byproducts such as glycerol, whose formation is intensified by osmotic, thermal, oxidative, and nutritional stresses. In the literature, two main approaches stand out for modulating its synthesis: the use of genetically modified strains

STAT3, a hub protein of cellular signaling pathways, is triggered by β-hexaclorocyclohexane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are widely distributed in the environment and their toxicity is mostly associated with the molecular mechanisms of endocrine disruption.
