Emerging roles of mitochondria and autophagy in liver injury during sepsis [PDF]
Recent research indicates crucial roles of autophagy during sepsis. In animal models of sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) or the systemic administration of lipopolysaccharides (LPS), autophagy is implicated in the activation and/or ...

Phosphatidylserine biosynthesis in mitochondria from the Morris 7777 hepatoma.
Mitochondria from the 7777 hepatoma incorporate substantial amounts of l-[U-(14)C]serine into phospholipid by a Ca(2+)-dependent base-exchange reaction. This reaction is virtually absent in normal liver mitochondria.

Decades of active research have shown that mitochondrial dysfunction, the associated oxidative stress, impaired anti-stress defense mechanisms, and the activation of the proapoptotic signaling pathways underlie pathological changes in organs and tissues.

Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

The effect of arsenite on rat‐liver mitochondria [PDF]
It has been known for some time that arsenite inhibits the oxidation of 2-oxoglutarate by specifically blocking vicinal dithiols of the 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase complex [ 1 ] . In liver mitochondria the inhibition is maximal at about 1 mM arsenite [2] .To get complete inhibition it was earlier found essential to preincubate mitochondria with ...
