Mitochondrial respiration and characteristics of skeletal muscles in children with cerebral palsy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Skeletal muscles utilize numerous mitochondria for energy production needed during muscle contraction. Mitochondria produce this energy through the electron transport chain. After an injury such as ACL‐injury in typically developing children, there is a reduction in muscle mitochondrial respiration and content.

Transgenic selection and underlying mechanisms in apicomplexan parasites

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Transgenic selection markers have driven genetic engineering in apicomplexans, enabling precise, iterative experiments. This review discusses mechanistic details of drug selection markers, strategies for marker recycling, and practical considerations for several clinically relevant parasites.

Decoding cytochrome c oxidase biogenesis: New insights into copper trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Acquisition, delivery and incorporation of metals to their respective metalloproteins are important cellular processes. These processes are tightly controlled so that cells are not exposed to free metal concentrations that would lead to harmful oxidative

Rescue of pATOM36‐depleted T. brucei by human MTCH1/2 reveals common features of protein insertases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Human MTCH1 and MTCH2 (with an N‐terminal extension) functionally complement the loss of pATOM36 in T. brucei, indicating that these evolutionarily distant proteins recognize a common set of substrates and share fundamental principles of mitochondrial outer membrane protein insertion. Structural analyses reveal a common hydrophilic cavity, supporting a

Energetic dysregulations in psychotic disorders: Targets for new therapeutics

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The present review synthesizes literature documenting aberrant energy production and use, specifically related to mitochondrial and redox dysregulation, in psychotic disorders. Findings from different levels of investigation—genetic, cellular, and in vivo imaging—converge on aberrant energy metabolism as a hallmark of psychotic disorders.

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Oxidative stress is involved in multiple chemical reactions that take place in different intracellular organelles: mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, autophagy, and aging, and can be influenced by exogenous factors: nutrition, physical activity, psychological status, environmental conditions, microbiome, and drugs.

Efficiency of RNAi‐based gene silencing in fungi: a meta‐analysis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mechanistic interpretation of RNAi efficiency across fungal lifestyles and delivery strategies based on the present meta‐analysis. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) shows great potential to protect crops against fungal diseases, yet reported protection efficiencies vary greatly, and our understanding of the factors responsible for this variance remains ...

Embryonal degreening and seed longevity require plastid LEA proteins

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Working model of how plastidial LEA proteins aid the remodelling of photosynthetic structures during degreening of Arabidopsis seed embryos. LEA42 and LEA48 support thylakoid proteostasis and membrane remodelling in embryonal cells during late seed maturation by maintaining a local physicochemical environment compatible with protein turnover and ...
