Neuroprotective effects of ursodeoxycholic acid in Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
In Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), various shared pathological mechanisms exist. UDCA has been shown to exert neuroprotective effects in preclinical and clinical studies. Such effects include the mitigation of neuroinflammation as well as rescue effects on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, impaired autophagy, and ...

Microglial Activation Under Hypoxic Conditions in Early Alzheimer's Disease: Can Natural SIRT1 Activators Be Therapeutic Allies in the Inflammation–Energy Axis?

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by a preclinical stage that typically lasts for decades. Early on during this time, microglia react to pathological changes and become protective and even transiently delay neurodegeneration.

Systemic phospho-defective and phospho-mimetic Drp1 mice exhibit normal growth and development with altered anxiety-like behavior

iScience
Summary: Mitochondrial division controls the size, distribution, and turnover of this essential organelle. A dynamin-related GTPase, Drp1, drives membrane division as a force-generating mechano-chemical enzyme.

Regulation of Mitochondrial Dynamics and Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]

, 2011
Mitochondria are important cellular organelles in most metabolic processes and have a highly dynamic nature, undergoing frequent fission and fusion. The dynamic balance between fission and fusion plays critical roles in mitochondrial functions. In recent

Harnessing energy metabolism for enhanced bone defect repair: Mechanisms and therapeutic strategies

VIEW, EarlyView.
This review addresses the critical challenge of bone defect repair by focusing on the underexplored role of cellular energy metabolism. It synthesizes regulatory mechanisms in bone‐forming cells and sums up innovative strategies—leveraging cell derivatives, active factors, and biomimetic scaffolds—to modulate metabolism for enhanced regeneration.

Identification of MEF2A, MEF2C, and MEF2D interactomes in basal and Fsk‐stimulated mouse MA‐10 Leydig cells

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myocyte enhancer factor 2 transcription factors regulate essential transcriptional programs in various cell types. The activity of myocyte enhancer factor 2 factors is modulated through interactions with cofactors, chromatin remodelers, and other regulatory proteins, which are dependent on cell context and physiological state.

Multifunctional Role of Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Oxidation in Cancer Immunotherapy and Aging

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Recent studies have highlighted the complex interplay between tumor immunity, aging, and inflammation. Mitochondrial FAO is a major hub of this physiological interplay. ABSTRACT Recent studies have demonstrated the intricate relationship between tumor immunity, aging, and inflammation.

Restraining the Divider: A Drp1-Phospholipid Interaction Inhibits Drp1 Activity and Shifts the Balance from Mitochondrial Fission to Fusion [PDF]

Molecular Cell, 2016
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Adachi et al. (2016) describe a novel interaction between the mitochondrial fission GTPase Drp1 and phosphatidic acid that restrains Drp1 activity and shifts the balance toward mitochondrial fusion, adding another layer of complexity to the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics.

Discovery of PHB1 as a Novel Candidate Gene in Dominant Optic Atrophy

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
A heterozygous PHB1 missense variant (p.Ser147Phe) segregates with autosomal dominant optic atrophy in a multi‐generation family. Structural and cellular analyses suggest altered mitochondrial dynamics, identifying PHB1 as a novel candidate gene for hereditary optic neuropathy. ABSTRACT Hereditary optic neuropathies comprise a genetically heterogeneous
