Strategies for accelerating osteogenesis through nanoparticle-based DNA/mitochondrial damage repair. [PDF]

open access: yesTheranostics, 2022
The efficiency of gene therapy is often dictated by the gene delivery system. Cationic polymers are essential elements of gene delivery systems. The relatively cheap cationic polymer, polyethyleneimine, has high gene delivery efficiency and is often used

Molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial DNA release and activation of the cGAS-STING pathway

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine, 2023
Inflammatory diseases: Understanding mitochondrial DNA release Cytosolic DNA activates the cGAS-STING pathway which mediates inflammation and antiviral response. One source of cytosolic DNA is ‘self ‘ DNA, such as mitochondrial DNA.

The Mitochondrial Response to DNA Damage

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Mitochondria are double membrane organelles in eukaryotic cells that provide energy by generating adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through oxidative phosphorylation. They are crucial to many aspects of cellular metabolism.

Mitochondrial DNA, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cardiac manifestations.

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2017
Mitochondria, the powerhouses of cells, have their own DNA (mtDNA). They regulate the transport of metabolites and ions, which determine cell physiology, survival, and death. Mitochondrial dysfunction, including impaired oxidative phosphorylation, preferentially affects heart function via imbalance of energy supply and demand.

Cooperative sensing of mitochondrial DNA by ZBP1 and cGAS promotes cardiotoxicity

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a potent agonist of the innate immune system; however, the exact immunostimulatory features of mtDNA and the kinetics of mtDNA detection by cytosolic nucleic acid sensors remain poorly defined.

Whole-Exome Sequencing Identifies a Novel POLG Frameshift Variant in an Adult Patient Presenting with Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia and Mitochondrial DNA Depletion

open access: yesCase Reports in Genetics, 2021
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndromes are a group of autosomal recessive disorders associated with a spectrum of clinical diseases, which include progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO).

Ultrasound-responsive low-dose doxorubicin liposomes trigger mitochondrial DNA release and activate cGAS-STING-mediated antitumour immunity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
DNA derived from chemotherapeutics-killed tumor cells is one of the most important damage-associated molecular patterns that can activate the cGAS-STING (cyclic GMP-AMP synthase—stimulator of interferon genes) pathway in antigen-presenting cells (APCs ...

Effective differentiation of double negative thymocytes requires high fidelity replication of mitochondrial DNA in an age dependent manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
One of the most proliferative periods for T cells occurs during their development in the thymus. Increased DNA replication can result in increased DNA mutations in the nuclear genome, but also in mitochondrial genomes.

Ultrasensitive deletion detection links mitochondrial DNA replication, disease, and aging

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2020
Background Acquired human mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) deletions are symptoms and drivers of focal mitochondrial respiratory deficiency, a pathological hallmark of aging and late-onset mitochondrial disease.

The Mighty NUMT: Mitochondrial DNA Flexing Its Code in the Nuclear Genome

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Nuclear-mitochondrial DNA segments (NUMTs) are mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fragments that have been inserted into the nuclear genome. Some NUMTs are common within the human population but most NUMTs are rare and specific to individuals. NUMTs range in size
