Targeting mitochondria by mitochondrial fusion, mitochondria-specific peptides and nanotechnology [PDF]
This thesis was focused on mitochondria as an intracellular target for drug delivery by the reason that mitochondria are becoming of increasing interest in pharmaceutical and medical research due to their contribution to several diseases (Chapter 1).

Nucleic acids and protein synthesis in cancer cell mitochondria. I. Nucleic acids in rat hepatoma mitochondria [PDF]
The contents of nucleic acids in rat liver and hepatoma mitochondria and the physico-chemical properties on DNA's isolated from these mitochondria were comparatively investigated. The results are briefly summarized as follows. 1.

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 ...

Isolation and analysis of fractions enriched in WrappER-associated mitochondria from mouse liver
Summary: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a central role in lipid homeostasis, but the role of individual ER subdomains in lipid biology has not been elucidated.

Increased susceptibility of striatal mitochondria to calcium-induced permeability transition [PDF]
Mitochondria were simultaneously isolated from striatum and cortex of adult rats and compared in functional assays for their sensitivity to calcium activation of the permeability transition.

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 ...

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,

Calcium and mitochondria [PDF]
The literature suggests that the physiological functions for which mitochondria sequester Ca2+ are (1) to stimulate and control the rate of oxidative phosphorylation, (2) to induce the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) and perhaps apoptotic cell death, and (3) to modify the shape of cytosolic Ca2+ pulses or transients.
