Cardiomyopathy: pathogenesis and therapeutic interventions
MedComm, Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2024.Cardiomyopathy is a group of diseases characterized by structural and functional damage to the myocardium. Many specific gene mutations, environmental factors, and metabolic disorders may cause cardiomyopathy. Traditional therapeutic includes drug and surgery. With the growing comprehension of the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiomyopathy.

Decreasing cytosolic translation is beneficial to yeast and human Tafazzin-deficient cells
Microbial Cell, 2018 Cardiolipin (CL) optimizes diverse mitochondrial processes, including oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). To function properly, CL needs to be unsaturated, which requires the acyltransferase Tafazzin (TAZ).

Novel insights into mitochondrial phospholipid homeostasis in a disease-relevant yeast model [PDF]
, 2019 The proper function of mitochondria critically depends on their membrane lipid composition. To ensure lipid homeostasis, de novo synthesis, intracellular and intraorganellar transport, remodeling, and degradation of lipids must be tightly regulated.
