Barth syndrome, a human disorder of cardiolipin metabolism
Barth syndrome is an X-linked recessive disease caused by mutations in the tafazzin gene. Patients have reduced concentration and altered composition of cardiolipin, the specific mitochondrial phospholipid, and they have variable clinical findings, often

Modeling the mitochondrial cardiomyopathy of Barth syndrome with iPSC and heart-on-chip technologies [PDF]
Studying monogenic mitochondrial cardiomyopathies may yield insights into mitochondrial roles in cardiac development and disease. Here, we combine patient-derived and genetically engineered iPSCs with tissue engineering to elucidate the pathophysiology ...

Emerging roles of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase 1: a key player in metabolic health
Pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDP), a structurally conserved member of the protein phosphatase C family (PP2C) of proteins, is a key regulatory enzyme responsible for reactivation of the mitochondrial gate-keeper, pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH ...
