Expression and Clinical Significance of Cytochrome 1B1 in Bone Sarcomas
PharmaceuticalsBackground/Objectives: Cytochrome 1B1 (CYP1B1) is overexpressed in several cancers, contributing to carcinogenesis, cancer progression, and chemoresistance. Despite its known oncogenic role, its expression in bone sarcomas remains unknown.

Mapping of redox state of mitochondrial cytochromes in live cardiomyocytes using Raman microspectroscopy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 This paper presents a nonivasive approach to study redox state of reduced cytochromes c, c1 and b of complexes II and III in mitochondria of live cardiomyocytes by means of Raman microspectroscopy. For the first time with the proposed approach we perform

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.NMR metabolomics revealed concentration‐dependent metabolic perturbations in HepG2 cells exposed to H2O2. Rifampicin pretreatment enhanced metabolic competence, attenuated toxin‐induced alterations and produced metabolite profiles more consistent with human liver physiology, supporting the use of CYP450‐induced HepG2 models for improved in vitro ...

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.

The Role of Cytochromes P450 in Infection
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 Cytochromes are expressed in many different tissues of the human body. They are found mostly in intestinal and hepatic tissues. Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) are enzymes that oxidize substances using iron and are able to metabolize a large variety of ...

Recent insights into the molecular mechanism of ubiquinol oxidation by cytochrome bc1
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The review reflects on the mechanism of the catalytic reaction in cytochrome bc1: the electron bifurcation that involves the separation of two electrons derived from the quinol oxidation to opposite sides of the enzyme across the membrane. This review summarizes the long‐standing effort to understand the mechanism of quinol oxidation catalyzed by ...
