Emerging functions of mammalian mitochondrial fusion and fission [PDF]
, 2005 Mitochondria provide a myriad of services to the cell, including energy production, calcium buffering and regulation of apoptosis. How these diverse functions are coordinated among the hundreds of mitochondria in a given cell is largely unknown, but is ...

SnapShot: Mitochondrial Dynamics
Cell, 2011 Mitochondria are tubular, highly dynamic organelles that continuously fuse and divide in a regulated manner. A balance of fusion and division controls mitochondrial morphol-ogy; imbalanced dynamics leads to altered morphology, which is associated with a variety of pathological conditions.

Mitochondrial dynamics and cancer [PDF]
Tumor Biology, 2017 Cancer is among the leading causes of death worldwide, and the number of new cases continues to rise. Despite recent advances in diagnosis and therapeutic strategies, millions of cancer-related deaths occur, indicating the need for better therapies and diagnostic strategies.

Mitochondrial Dynamics: Fission and Fusion in Fate Determination of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are pivotal to tissue homeostasis, repair, and regeneration due to their potential for self-renewal, multilineage differentiation, and immune modulation.

Signal transducer and activator of transcription 2 deficiency is a novel disorder of mitochondrial fission [PDF]
, 2015 Defects of mitochondrial dynamics are emerging causes of neurological disease. In two children presenting with severe neurological deterioration following viral infection we identified a novel homozygous STAT2 mutation, c.1836C4A (p.Cys612Ter), using ...

Rapid degradation of mutant SLC25A46 by the ubiquitin-proteasome system results in MFN1/2-mediated hyperfusion of mitochondria. [PDF]
, 2017 SCL25A46 is a mitochondrial carrier protein that surprisingly localizes to the outer membrane and is distantly related to Ugo1. Here we show that a subset of SLC25A46 interacts with mitochondrial dynamics components and the MICOS complex.

Mitochondrial Dynamics in Tachycardiomyopathy [PDF]
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2019 Tachycardiomyopathy (TCM) is a largely reversible form of non-ischemic heart failure. The underlying mechanism are, however, still today poorly understood. Recent data indicate distinct changes in mitochondrial distribution in these patients, compared to other non-ischemic cardiomyopathies.This study investigated underlying mechanisms in mitochondrial ...

The PINK1/Parkin pathway: a mitochondrial quality control system? [PDF]
, 2009 Significant insight into the mechanisms that contribute to dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson disease has been gained from the analysis of genes linked to rare heritable forms of parkinsonism such as PINK1 and parkin, loss-of-function mutations ...
