Summary: Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism is linked to glucose homeostasis, but the underlying signaling mechanisms are unclear. We find that gluconeogenesis is reduced in mice deficient of Ppm1k, a positive regulator of BCAA catabolism, which

Changes in membrane lipids drive increased endocytosis following Fas ligation [PDF]
Once activated, some surface receptors promote membrane movements that open new portals of endocytosis, in part to facilitate the internalization of their activated complexes.

Preparation of Neurospora crassa mitochondria [PDF]
The fungus Neurospora crassa represents a eukaryotic cell with high biosynthetic activities. Cell mass doubles in 2-4 hr during expone ntial growth , even in simple salt media with sucrose as the sole carbon source. The microorgani sm forms a mycelium of

Proteolytic Processing of OPA1 Links Mitochondrial Dysfunction to Alterations in Mitochondrial Morphology [PDF]
Many muscular and neurological disorders are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and are often accompanied by changes in mitochondrial morphology.

Editorial Proliferating cells such as tumor cells have increased metabolic demands that include ATP, NADPH, lipids, proteins, and nucleotides to allow for a tumor cell to divide into two daughter cells [1]. Tumor cells reprogram their cell metabolism to sustain the increased metabolic demands of cell proliferation.

Dynamic Metabolic Response to Adriamycin-Induced Senescence in Breast Cancer Cells
Cellular senescence displays a heterogeneous set of phenotypes linked to tumor suppression; however, after drug treatment, senescence may also be involved in stable or recurrent cancer. Metabolic changes during senescence can provide detailed information

Obesity is a significant health concern as a result of poor-quality diet, for example, high-fat diet (HFD). Although multiple biological and molecular changes have been identified to contribute to HFD-induced pain susceptibility, the mechanisms are not ...

Familial ALS-superoxide dismutases associate with mitochondria and shift their redox potentials [PDF]
Recent studies suggest that the toxicity of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mutant Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) arises from its selective recruitment to mitochondria. Here we demonstrate that each of 12 different familial ALS-mutant SOD1s

In reproduction, mitochondria produce bioenergy, help to synthesize biomolecules, and support the ovaries, oogenesis, and preimplantation embryos, thereby facilitating healthy live births. However, the regulatory mechanism of mitochondria in oocytes and embryos during oogenesis and embryo development has not been clearly elucidated.
