Targeting cytochrome C oxidase in mitochondria with Pt(II)-porphyrins for Photodynamic Therapy
Mitochondria are the power house of living cells, where the synthesis of the chemical "energy currency" adenosine triphosphate (ATP) occurs. Oxidative phosphorylation by a series of membrane protein complexes I to IV, that is, the electron transport ...

Compound Heterozygous MRPS14 Variants Associated With Leigh Syndrome
ABSTRACT MRPS14 (uS14m) is a nuclear‐encoded ribosomal protein important for mitochondria‐specific translation. To date, only a single individual with a recessive MRPS14‐related disorder (also known as COXPD38) has been reported. We report an additional subject possessing novel compound heterozygous MRPS14 variants (p.Asp37Asn, p.Asn60Asp). The subject

Yi‐Fei‐Jie‐Du‐Tang (YFJDT), a traditional Chinese medicine, has shown potential in lung cancer treatment by targeting key pathways. This study explores the mechanisms of YFJDT using bioinformatics, xenograft models, and A549 cells, demonstrating that YFJDT downregulates HIF1A, promotes ferroptosis, and inhibits epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT ...

Caspase-mediated loss of mitochondrial function and generation of reactive oxygen species during apoptosis [PDF]
During apoptosis, the permeabilization of the mitochondrial outer membrane allows the release of cytochrome c, which induces caspase activation to orchestrate the death of the cell.

The Regulation of Trace Metal Elements in Cancer Ferroptosis
The induction of ferroptosis inhibits tumor growth, enhances anticancer efficacy, and overcomes drug resistance. Recent evidence shows nonferrous metal elements play a role in ferroptosis. This review focuses on how trace metals regulate ferroptosis processes like iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant defense.

Structure of a bacterial cell surface decaheme electron conduit [PDF]
Some bacterial species are able to utilize extracellular mineral forms of iron and manganese as respiratory electron acceptors. In Shewanella oneidensis this involves decaheme cytochromes that are located on the bacterial cell surface at the termini of ...
