Mitochondrial DNA homeostasis: A novel therapeutic target for neurodegenerative diseases

Neural Regeneration Research
The mitochondrial genomic homeostasis is essential for the function of the oxidative phosphorylation system and cellular homeostasis. Mitochondrial DNA is particularly susceptible to aging-related oxidative stress due to the lack of a histone coat ...

Mitochondrial DNA deletions and neurodegeneration in multiple sclerosis

, 2010
Cerebral atrophy is a correlate of clinical progression in multiple sclerosis (MS). Mitochondria are now established to play a part in the pathogenesis of MS.

Mechanism of neurodegeneration of neurons with mitochondrial DNA mutations

, 2010
Mutations of mitochondrial DNA are associated with a wide spectrum of disorders, primarily affecting the central nervous system and muscle function. The specific consequences of mitochondrial DNA mutations for neuronal pathophysiology are not understood.

Mitochondrial heat shock protein 70, a molecular chaperone for proteins encoded by mitochondrial DNA [PDF]

, 1994
Mitochondrial heat shock protein 70 (mt-Hsp70) has been shown to play an important role in facilitating import into, as well as folding and assembly of nuclear-encoded proteins in the mitochondrial matrix.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Mitochondrial DNA and ageing

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2006
The accumulation of mitochondrial DNA mutations has been proposed as a potential mechanism in the physiological processes of ageing and age-related disease. Although mitochondria have long been anticipated as a perpetrator of ageing, there was little experimental evidence to link these changes directly with the cellular pathology of ageing.
