Human cachexia induces changes in mitochondria, autophagy and apoptosis in the skeletal muscle [PDF]

, 2019
Cachexia is a wasting syndrome characterized by the continuous loss of skeletal muscle mass due to imbalance between protein synthesis and degradation, which is related with poor prognosis and compromised quality of life.

Astrocytic Mitochondria Transplantation Rescues Neuron Loss and Dendritic Injuries in Acute Cerebral Ischemic Stroke Mouse Model by Flexibly Regulating Mitochondria Dynamics

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Cerebral ischemic stroke causes neuronal oxygen/energy deprivation, disrupting mitochondrial function including reduced membrane potential and bioenergetics, exacerbating neuronal injury. Mitochondrial defects are, therefore, a central neuropathological node and potential therapeutic target.

Myo‐Inositol Mitigates Oxidative Stress in Bovine Mammary Epithelial Cells via Activation of the SIRT5/Nrf2 Signaling Axis

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Myo‐inositol alleviates oxidative stress in dairy cow mammary epithelial cells via the Sirt5/Nrf2 pathway to promote mitochondrial fusion. This graphical abstract was created with BioRender.com. ABSTRACT High‐yielding dairy cows are susceptible to mammary gland oxidative stress due to prolonged intensive lactation, leading to redox imbalance.

Drp1 Promotes KRas-Driven Metabolic Changes to Drive Pancreatic Tumor Growth

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Mitochondria undergo fission and fusion to maintain homeostasis, and tumors exhibit the dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics. We recently demonstrated that ectopic HRasG12V promotes mitochondrial fragmentation and tumor growth through Erk ...

The PINK1/Parkin pathway: a mitochondrial quality control system? [PDF]

, 2009
Significant insight into the mechanisms that contribute to dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson disease has been gained from the analysis of genes linked to rare heritable forms of parkinsonism such as PINK1 and parkin, loss-of-function mutations ...

Mitochondria and the Actin Cytoskeleton in Neurodegeneration

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction and cytoskeletal disorganization are widely recognized hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

The Metabolic Role of Mitochondria in the Perinatal Cardiac Development and Cardiovascular Diseases

Exploration, EarlyView.
This review explores the critical role of mitochondria in heart development and cardiovascular disease. It highlights how mitochondrial maturation during embryonic‐to‐postnatal transition, regulated by oxygen and metabolic changes, shapes cardiac structure and function.
