PINK1 in mitochondrial function [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
Rare, inherited mutations causing familial forms of Parkinson's disease (PD) have provided much insight into some of the molecular mechanisms that underlie both the genetic and sporadic forms of the disease. The role of mitochondria in sporadic PD has been debated for a little over 20 years, since the identification of complex I deficiency in the ...

Mitochondrial function of human embryo: Decline in their quality with maternal aging

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2022
Background Female fertility declines with age, due to increased chromosomal aneuploidy and possible reduced mitochondrial function in the embryo.

Identity, structure, and function of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore: controversies, consensus, recent advances, and future directions

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation, 2023
The mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT) describes a Ca^2+-dependent and cyclophilin D (CypD)-facilitated increase of inner mitochondrial membrane permeability that allows diffusion of molecules up to 1.5 kDa in size.

Synergistic interaction of fatty acids and oxysterols impairs mitochondrial function and limits liver adaptation during nafld progression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018

Mitochondrial form and function [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2014
Mitochondria are one of the major ancient endomembrane systems in eukaryotic cells. Owing to their ability to produce ATP through respiration, they became a driving force in evolution. As an essential step in the process of eukaryotic evolution, the size of the mitochondrial chromosome was drastically reduced, and the behaviour of mitochondria within ...

Differential Metabolism of Medium-Chain Fatty Acids in Differentiated Human-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Astrocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) ketogenic diets increase ketone bodies, which are believed to act as alternative energy substrates in the injured brain. Octanoic (C8:0) and decanoic (C10:0) acids, which produce ketone bodies through β-oxidation, are used

In vitro characterization of mitochondrial function and structure in rat and human cells with a deficiency of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase Ndufc2 subunit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ndufc2, a subunit of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, plays a key role in the assembly and activity of complex I within the mitochondrial OXPHOS chain. Its deficiency has been shown to be involved in diabetes, cancer and stroke.

Mitochondrial Function in Sepsis [PDF]

open access: yesShock, 2016
Mitochondria are an essential part of the cellular infrastructure, being the primary site for high-energy adenosine triphosphate production through oxidative phosphorylation. Clearly, in severe systemic inflammatory states, like sepsis, cellular metabolism is usually altered, and end organ dysfunction is not only common, but also predictive of long ...

Telomeres and Mitochondrial Function [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2011
### Telomere Dysfunction Induces Metabolic and Mitochondrial Compromise Sahin et al Nature. 2011;470:359–365. A new study provides insight into aging and age-related diseases by linking telomere dysfunction to a decline in mitochondrial number and function.
