Mitochondrial fusion is essential for steroid biosynthesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Although the contribution of mitochondrial dynamics (a balance in fusion/fission events and changes in mitochondria subcellular distribution) to key biological process has been reported, the contribution of changes in mitochondrial fusion to achieve ...

Mitochondrial Fission and Fusion: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, and Related Disorders

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that undergo fusion and fission. These active processes occur continuously and simultaneously and are mediated by nuclear-DNA-encoded proteins that act on mitochondrial membranes. The balance between fusion and fission

Mfn2-mediated mitochondrial fusion alleviates doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity with enhancing its anticancer activity through metabolic switch

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2022
Imbalanced mitochondrial dynamics including inhibited mitochondrial fusion is associated with cardiac dysfunction as well as tumorigenesis. This study sought to explore the effects of promoting mitochondrial fusion on doxorubicin(Dox)-induced ...

Mitochondrial fusion protein: a new therapeutic target for lung injury diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Physiol
Mitochondria are essential organelles responsible for cellular energy supply. The maintenance of mitochondrial structure and function relies heavily on quality control systems, including biogenesis, fission, and fusion. Mitochondrial fusion refers to the

Mitochondrial membrane fusion

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2003
Mitochondrial fusion has been observed in a great variety of organisms from yeast to man. It serves to mix and unify the mitochondrial compartment and plays roles in cellular aging, cell development, energy dissipation and mitochondrial DNA inheritance. Large GTPases in the mitochondrial outer membrane, termed Fzo or mitofusins, have been identified as

Mitochondria- and ER-associated actin are required for mitochondrial fusion. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun
Mitochondria are crucial for cellular metabolism and signalling. Mitochondrial activity is modulated by mitochondrial fission and fusion, which are required to properly balance metabolic functions, transfer material between mitochondria, and remove ...

Mitochondrial Fusion Proteins and Human Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology Research International, 2013
Mitochondria are highly dynamic, complex organelles that continuously alter their shape, ranging between two opposite processes, fission and fusion, in response to several stimuli and the metabolic demands of the cell.
