Aberrant branched-chain amino acid catabolism in cardiovascular diseases
Globally, cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death. Research has focused on the metabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids, and amino acids to improve the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases.

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 ...

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

Evidence for the involvement of lipid rafts localized at the ER-mitochondria associated membranes in autophagosome formation [PDF]
Mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) are subdomains of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that interact with mitochondria. This membrane scrambling between ER and mitochondria appears to play a critical role in the earliest steps of autophagy.

Active thermodynamic force driven mitochondrial alignment [PDF]
Mitochondria are critical organelles in eukaryotes that produce the energy currency ATP. In nerve axons, mitochondria are known to align at almost regular intervals to maintain a constant ATP concentration, but little is known about the mechanism. In this letter, we show theoretically that ATP production and ATP-dependent non-directional movement of ...

Analysis of two genomes from the mitochondrion-like organelle of the intestinal parasite Blastocystis: complete sequences, gene content, and genome organization. [PDF]
Acquisition of mitochondria by the ancestor of all living eukaryotes represented a crucial milestone in the evolution of the eukaryotic cell. Nevertheless, a number of anaerobic unicellular eukaryotes have secondarily discarded certain mitochondrial ...

Piperine Derivatives Enhance Fusion and Axonal Transport of Mitochondria by Activating Mitofusins
Piperine (1-piperoylpiperidine) is the major pungent component of black pepper (Piper nigrum) and exhibits a spectrum of pharmacological activities. The molecular bases for many of piperine’s biological effects are incompletely defined. We noted that the

Advanced Deep Networks for 3D Mitochondria Instance Segmentation [PDF]
Mitochondria instance segmentation from electron microscopy (EM) images has seen notable progress since the introduction of deep learning methods. In this paper, we propose two advanced deep networks, named Res-UNet-R and Res-UNet-H, for 3D mitochondria instance segmentation from Rat and Human samples.
