The Mitochondrial Metallochaperone SCO1 Is Required to Sustain Expression of the High-Affinity Copper Transporter CTR1 and Preserve Copper Homeostasis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Human SCO1 fulfills essential roles in cytochrome c oxidase (COX) assembly and the regulation of copper (Cu) homeostasis, yet it remains unclear why pathogenic mutations in this gene cause such clinically heterogeneous forms of disease.

Multi‐Omics Insights Into the Mechanisms of Early Muscle Fiber Difference and Transformation Between Lean‐Type and Chinese Indigenous Pigs

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐omics analyses uncover breed‐specific cis‐regulatory landscapes and higher‐order chromatin architectural differences that underlie early postnatal muscle fiber divergence in pigs. A super‐enhancer upstream of PPP3CB recruits MEF2C to activate PPP3CB transcription, while the PPP3CB–MEF2C positive feedback loop promotes oxidative muscle fiber ...

Copper Depletion Nanoparticles Potentiate Cancer Immunotherapy by Avoiding Innate and Adaptive Immune Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A mitochondria‐targeted copper depletion nanoplatform (CYN‐CDA@Alb) was developed to selectively disrupt tumor mitochondria copper, which then reprogrammed the tumor immune microenvironment by depressing PD‐L1 and CD47 expression simultaneously. By doing this, CYN‐CDA@Alb reversed radiotherapy‐induced immune tolerance, showing the potential usage of ...

Schizophrenia and Leigh syndrome, a simple comorbidity or the same etiopathogeny: about a case

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2015
Leigh syndrome is a mitochondrial encephalomyopathy that occurs due to "cytochrome c oxidase deficiency". Few psychiatric disorders have been defined that are associated with Leigh syndrome.

When should MERRF (myoclonus epilepsy associated with ragged-red fibers) be the diagnosis?

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2014
Myoclonic epilepsy associated with ragged red fibers (MERRF) is a rare mitochondrial disorder. Diagnostic criteria for MERRF include typical manifestations of the disease: myoclonus, generalized epilepsy, cerebellar ataxia and ragged red fibers (RRF) on ...

Isolation and Characterization of Glycerol-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase-Defective Mutants of \u3cem\u3eNeurospora crassa\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
Three glycerol-nonutilizing mutants deficient in the mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate (G3P) dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.5) were isolated from inlts derivatives of Neurospora crassa following inositolless death at elevated temperatures on minimal glycerol ...

m.10010T>C Mitochondrial Disease: A Case Report With Hypoparathyroidism and Review of the Literature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondria are essential intracellular organelles that play a critical role in cellular metabolism, including the regulation of intracellular calcium signaling. Advances in genomic sequencing have facilitated the identification of rare pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genetic variants in patients with unexplained endocrine disorders.

Characterization of Shy1, the Schizosaccharomyces pombe homolog of human SURF1

open access: yesScientific Reports
Cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV) is the terminal enzyme in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. As a rare neurometabolic disorder caused by mutations in the human complex IV assembly factor SURF1, Leigh Syndrome (LS) is associated with complex IV ...
