Heat release by isolated mouse brain mitochondria detected with diamond thermometer [PDF]
A production of heat by mitochondria is critical for maintaining body temperature, regulating metabolic rate and preventing oxidative damage to mitochondria and cells. Up to now mitochondrion heat production was characterized only by methods based on fluorescent probes which are sensitive to environmental variations (viscosity, pH, ionic strength ...

Mitochondria as a Cellular Hub in Infection and Inflammation
Mitochondria are the energy center of the cell. They are found in the cell cytoplasm as dynamic networks where they adapt energy production based on the cell’s needs. They are also at the center of the proinflammatory response and have essential roles in

STAMPing into Mitochondria [PDF]
Six transmembrane protein of prostate 2 (STAMP2) is a protein that has been extensively studied due to its association with prostate cancer. Currently, STAMP2 is well known for its critical role in metabolism and modulating inflammatory signals. Even so, the molecular mechanism of STAMP2 activity and its downstream effectors are still largely unknown ...

Mitochondria and Neurodegeneration
Many lines of evidence suggest that mitochondria have a central role in ageing-related neurodegenerative diseases. However, despite the evidence of morphological, biochemical and molecular abnormalities in mitochondria in various tissues of patients with neurodegenerative disorders, the question “is mitochondrial dysfunction a necessary step in ...

PINK1 Is Selectively Stabilized on Impaired Mitochondria to Activate Parkin
Mutations in PINK1 or Parkin lead to familial parkinsonism. The authors suggest that PINK1 and Parkin form a pathway that senses damaged mitochondria and selectively targets them for degradation.
