Transcriptome Analysis Identifies Key Metabolic Changes in the Hooded Seal (Cystophora cristata) Brain in Response to Hypoxia and Reoxygenation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The brain of diving mammals tolerates low oxygen conditions better than the brain of most terrestrial mammals. Previously, it has been demonstrated that the neurons in brain slices of the hooded seal (Cystophora cristata) withstand hypoxia longer than ...

Energy metabolism disorders in migraine: triggers, pathways, and therapeutic repurposing

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
Many migraine triggers, such as stress, sleep deprivation, fatigue, strenuous exercise, and fasting, are potentially linked to disturbances in brain energy metabolism, mitochondrial function, and oxidative stress.

Multi-omics analysis revealed the brain dysfunction induced by energy metabolism in Pelteobagrus vachelli under hypoxia stress

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
Hypoxia in water environment has become increasingly frequent and serious due to global warming and environmental pollution. Revealing the molecular mechanism of fish hypoxia adaptation will help to develop markers of environmental pollution caused by ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Brain Energy Metabolism: Astrocytes in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesCNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics, 2022
AbstractAstrocytes are the most abundant cells in the brain. They have many important functions in the central nervous system (CNS), including the maintenance of glutamate and ion homeostasis, the elimination of oxidative stress, energy storage in glycogen, tissue repair, regulating synaptic activity by releasing neurotransmitters, and participating in

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Ketones and brain development: Implications for correcting deteriorating brain glucose metabolism during aging

open access: yesOilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2016
Brain energy metabolism in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized mainly by temporo-parietal glucose hypometabolism. This pattern has been widely viewed as a consequence of the disease, i.e.
