Glutathione and mitochondria [PDF]
Glutathione (GSH) is the main non-protein thiol in cells whose functions are dependent on the redox-active thiol of its cysteine moiety that serves as a cofactor for a number of antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes. While synthesized exclusively in the cytosol from its constituent amino acids, GSH is distributed in different compartments, including ...

Skeletal muscle ischemia reperfusion is very frequent in humans and results not only in muscle destruction but also in multi-organ failure and death via systemic effects related to inflammation and oxidative stress.

CaMKII induces permeability transition through Drp1 phosphorylation during chronic β-AR stimulation
β-adrenergic receptor signaling induces mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening. Here, Xuet al. show that this effect is mediated by phosphorylation of mitochondrial fission protein Drp1 by CamKII, which increases the frequency of ...

How proteins are transported into mitochondria [PDF]
Most mitochondrial polypeptides are synthesized outside the organelle as precursors which are usually larger than the ‘mature’ polypeptides found within mitochondria.

Glucose promotes cell growth by suppressing branched-chain amino acid degradation
Hypertrophic cardiomyocytes switch their metabolism from fatty acid oxidation to glucose use, but the functional role of this change is unclear. Here the authors show that high intracellular glucose inhibits the degradation of branched-chain amino acids,

A new limit for blood metabolite analysis using 1H NMR spectroscopy
Human blood is the most widely used biospecimen in the clinic and the metabolomics field. While both mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy are the two premier analytical platforms in the metabolomics field, NMR exhibits several unsurpassed ...

Localization of TCA cycle dehydrogenases in the mitochondria [PDF]
The site of localization of TCA cycle dehydrogenases in mitochondria has been investigated by observing the dehydrogenase activities and fine structure of the fractionated samples after freezing and thawing or sonication of beef heart and rat liver ...

Ltc1 is an ER-localized sterol transporter and a component of ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts. [PDF]
Organelle contact sites perform fundamental functions in cells, including lipid and ion homeostasis, membrane dynamics, and signaling. Using a forward proteomics approach in yeast, we identified new ER-mitochondria and ER-vacuole contacts specified by an

Regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis in erythropoiesis by mTORC1-mediated protein translation. [PDF]
Advances in genomic profiling present new challenges of explaining how changes in DNA and RNA are translated into proteins linking genotype to phenotype.

Sarcopenia and cardiovascular diseases: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Sarcopenia is an age‐related disease and is often accompanied by other diseases. Now, many studies have shown that cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) may raise the incidence rate of sarcopenia. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic
