Cell signaling and mitochondrial dynamics: Implications for neuronal function and neurodegenerative disease

Neurobiology of Disease, 2013
Nascent evidence indicates that mitochondrial fission, fusion, and transport are subject to intricate regulatory mechanisms that intersect with both well-characterized and emerging signaling pathways.

Rocket‐Inspired Sequentially Targeted Nanotherapeutics for Mitochondrial Regulation and Inflammatory Reprogramming in Ischemic Stroke

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel neutrophil‐hitchhiking, rocket‐inspired nanoplatform is developed to cross the blood‐brain barrier for sequential, spatiotemporal drug delivery. By responsive surface transformation in the ischemic penumbra, it precisely targets mitochondria to suppress Drp1‐mediated fission.

Role of mitochondrial lipids in guiding fission and fusion [PDF]

Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2014
Clinically important links have been established between mitochondrial function and cardiac physiology and disease in the context of signaling mechanisms, energy production, and muscle cell development. The proteins and processes that drive mitochondrial fusion and fission are now known to have emergent functions in intracellular calcium homeostasis ...

ATL2 Recruits TRAK1 to Promote Mitochondrial Transport at ER–Mitochondria Contact Sites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial transport and distribution are crucial for cellular homeostasis, yet whether and how they are regulated by endoplasmic reticulum (ER)–mitochondria contact sites remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the ER protein atlastin‐2 (ATL2) orchestrates mitochondrial transport and distribution by promoting assembly of the transport ...

IFI27 and BAX are Essential for GSDME‐Mediated Myeloma Cell Pyroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The proposed model of GSDME‐mediated MM cell pyroptosis modulated by IFI27 and BAX. IFI27 is downregulated in MM cells. Upon pyroptotic stimulation, such as DOX or ETO treatment, IFI27 is induced, therefore liberating BAX from BCL‐2 ❶. BAX is then recruited to mitochondria and forms homo‐oligomeric channels in OMM, therefore leading to cytochrome C ...

The evolution and role of mitochondrial fusion and fission in aging and disease [PDF]

Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2011
Mitochondria contain their own genetic material and evolved from prokaryotic ancestors some two billion years ago. They are the main source of the cell's energy supply and are involved in such important processes as apoptosis, mitochondrial diseases and aging. Mitochondria display a complex dynamical behavior involving cycles of fusion and fission, the

Mitofusin-Mediated Mitochondrial Fusion Inhibits Pseudorabies Virus Infection in Porcine Cells

Veterinary Sciences
Background: Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that undergo fusion/fission dynamics, and emerging evidence has established that mitochondrial dynamics plays a crucial regulatory role in the process of viral infection.

Klotho‐Derived Peptide 1 Protects against Acute Kidney Injury by Directly Targeting Mitochondrial ATAD3A

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers that KP1, a Klotho‐derived peptide, protects the kidney against acute kidney injury, a clinical syndrome with high morbidity and mortality. KP1 enters tubular epithelial cells via endocytosis, directly interacts with the mitochondrial ATAD3A/HIGD2A complex, thereby preventing cytochrome c release, and caspases activation, and ...

Selective Modulation of OTUB1 Noncanonical Function via a bioPhosTAC Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work positions the versatile performance of the peptide‐based bioPhosTAC platform for dissecting phosphorylation‐dependent biology and expanding the scope of induced‐proximity technologies. We demonstrated that selective manipulation of a tyrosine phosphorylation site is sufficient to propagate coordinated cellular consequences.

Modulation of Mitochondrial Dynamics in Primary Hippocampal Cultures of 5xFAD Mice by Mdivi-1, MFP, and Exogenous Zinc

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Background: Mitochondrial dynamics—the balance between fission, fusion, and mitophagy—are essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and are increasingly implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
