Attenuation of Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity by mdivi-1: A Mitochondrial Division/Mitophagy Inhibitor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Doxorubicin is one of the most effective anti-cancer agents. However, its use is associated with adverse cardiac effects, including cardiomyopathy and progressive heart failure.

Mitochondrial dynamics define muscle fiber type by modulating cellular metabolic pathways

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Skeletal muscle is highly developed after birth, consisting of glycolytic fast-twitch and oxidative slow-twitch fibers; however, the mechanisms of fiber-type-specific differentiation are poorly understood.

Neurodegenerative stress related mitochondrial proteostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
1.1 Background: Mitochondria are the main site of energy production in most cells. Furthermore, they are involved in a multitude of other essential cellular processes, such as regulating the cellular calcium pool, lipid metabolism and programmed cell ...

GDAP1 mutations differ in their effects on mitochondrial dynamics and apoptosis depending on the mode of inheritance

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2009
Mutations in the GDAP1 gene lead to recessively or dominantly inherited peripheral neuropathies (Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease; CMT). Here, we demonstrate that GDAP1 is a mitochondrial fission factor whose activity is dependent on the fission factors Drp1 ...

Parkinson phenotype in aged PINK1-deficient mice is accompanied by progressive mitochondrial dysfunction in absence of neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is an adult-onset movement disorder of largely unknown etiology. We have previously shown that loss-of-function mutations of the mitochondrial protein kinase PINK1 (PTEN induced putative kinase 1) cause the recessive ...

Tanshinone IIA reduces SW837 colorectal cancer cell viability via the promotion of mitochondrial fission by activating JNK-Mff signaling pathways

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2018
Background Mitochondrial homeostasis has been increasingly viewed as a potential target of cancer therapy, and mitochondrial fission is a novel regulator of mitochondrial function and apoptosis.

Drp1 ablation in the adult mouse forebrain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Due to their high energy demand, their highly polarized nature and the sheer length of their processes, neurons - more than any other cell type - depend on a well-balanced dynamic mitochondrial network.

Ubiquitin-proteasome dependent mitochondrial protein quality control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dysfunctional mitochondria cause many neurodegenerative disorders and with aging in general, mechanisms of mitochondrial quality control are essential for cellular function.

Encephalopathy due to mutation in mitochondrial fission factor gene

open access: yesIndian Journal of Child Health, 2020
Mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) is a part of the protein complex that promotes mitochondrial and peroxisome fission. Mitochondria and peroxisome fission are complex processes of vital importance for cell growth and survival. Here, we are presenting a case of 5-year-old boy with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy, global developmental delay, and ...

Mitochondrial dynamics in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological implications

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2017
Mitochondria play a key role in maintaining cellular metabolic homeostasis. These organelles have a high plasticity and are involved in dynamic processes such as mitochondrial fusion and fission, mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis. Type 2 diabetes is
