From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

A novel cell-free mitochondrial fusion assay amenable for high-throughput screenings of fusion modulators

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2010
Background Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles whose morphology and position within the cell is tightly coupled to metabolic function. There is a limited list of essential proteins that regulate mitochondrial morphology and the mechanisms that ...

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Hypertonia-linked protein Trak1 functions with mitofusins to promote mitochondrial tethering and fusion

open access: yesProtein & Cell, 2017
Hypertonia is a neurological dysfunction associated with a number of central nervous system disorders, including cerebral palsy, Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, and epilepsy.

A study of mitochondrial biogenesis in the rodent nervous system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This thesis investigates the process of mitochondrial biogenesis in the rodent CNS in the context of neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disease. There is mounting evidence of mitochondrial damage in neuroinflammation but very little is known about ...

The mitochondrial receptor complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The receptor complex in the mitochondrial outer membrane, which consists of at least seven different proteins, is responsible for the recognition and translocation of cytosolically synthesized preproteins.

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

Structure and function of bacterial dynamin-like proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Membrane dynamics are essential for numerous cellular processes in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. In eukaryotic cells, membrane fusion and fission are often catalyzed by large GTPases of the dynamin protein family. These proteins couple GTP hydrolysis

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Workshop at Data and Planning Center of NIFS in 2003 "Assesment of Fusion R&D" - The Critical Issues of Demonstration Fusion Reactor - [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
実証炉を構想しそれに至る課題を整理することは、核融合研究開発の現状を評価するうえで最も適切な作業のひとつと考えた。磁場閉じ込めと慣性閉じ込め核融合に共通な課題は経済性の改善である。また、磁場閉じ込めではトカマクもヘリカルも将来性のあるダイバータの開発は共通である。 経済性に関しては先進トカマクや高速点火方式のレーザ慣性核融合の提案が出てきている。さらにダイバータに関しては可動型や外置き型の研究が進められている。これらの要約は添付した。In order to asses the fusion ...
