SUMO wrestling with Drp1 at mitochondria [PDF]
EMBO J 32 11: 1514–1528; March222013; 10.1038/emboj.2013.65 Mitochondria undergo dynamic fission and fusion events, and disruptions in this balance can lead to cellular dysfunction or death. New work by Henley and colleagues identifies a key role for the SUMO protease SENP3 and its target Drp1, a key mediator of mitochondrial fission, in ischaemia.

Background: Sepsis causes acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients, although the mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology are not fully understood. SUMO-specific proteases 3 (SENP3), a member of the deSUMOylating enzyme family, is known as a

Mitochondrial Dynamics Regulation in Skin Fibroblasts from Mitochondrial Disease Patients
Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that constantly fuse, divide, and move, and their function is regulated and maintained by their morphologic changes. Mitochondrial disease (MD) comprises a group of disorders involving mitochondrial dysfunction.

Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission regulates calcium and F-actin dynamics during wound healing
Mitochondria adapt to cellular needs by changes in morphology through fusion and fission events, referred to as mitochondrial dynamics. Mitochondrial function and morphology are intimately connected and the dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics is ...

Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Bezafibrate Improves Mitochondrial Fission and Function in DNM1L-Deficient Patient Cells
Mitochondria are involved in many cellular processes and their main role is cellular energy production. They constantly undergo fission and fusion, and these counteracting processes are under strict balance. The cytosolic dynamin-related protein 1, Drp1,

Mitochondrial dynamics is essential for the maintenance of cell homeostasis. Previous studies have shown that porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) infection decreases the mitochondrial membrane potential and causes the elevation of reactive oxygen species (ROS ...

Drp1 is required for AgRP neuronal activity and feeding
The hypothalamic orexigenic Agouti-related peptide (AgRP)-expressing neurons are crucial for the regulation of whole-body energy homeostasis. Here, we show that fasting-induced AgRP neuronal activation is associated with dynamin-related peptide 1 (DRP1)-mediated mitochondrial fission and mitochondrial fatty acid utilization in AgRP

Sub-Cloning recombinant Drp1 into APEX2-GFP and overexpressing APEX2-GFP-Drp1 protein for potential mapping. [PDF]
Drp1 regulation and mechanism in mammalian fission machinery have been extensively studied in an attempt to have a better understanding of the fission machinery mechanism, human diseases such as neurodegenerative ones that are associated with its ...
