Escape from TGF‐β‐induced senescence promotes aggressive hallmarks in epithelial hepatocellular carcinoma cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Chronic TGF‐β exposure drives epithelial HCC cells from a senescent state to a TGF‐β resistant mesenchymal phenotype. This transition is characterized by the loss of Smad3‐mediated signaling, escape from senescence, enhanced invasiveness and metastatic potential, and upregulation of key resistance modulators such as MARK1 and GRM8, ultimately promoting

A fragmented metazoan organellar genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Animal mitochondrial (mt) genomes are characteristically circular molecules of ~16–20 kb. Medusozoa (Cnidaria excluding Anthozoa) are exceptional in that their mt genomes are linear and sometimes subdivided into two to presumably four ...

Targeting the AKT/mTOR pathway attenuates the metastatic potential of colorectal carcinoma circulating tumor cells in a murine xenotransplantation model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

CHCHD10 mutations promote loss of mitochondrial cristae junctions with impaired mitochondrial genome maintenance and inhibition of apoptosis

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2015
CHCHD10‐related diseases include mitochondrial DNA instability disorder, frontotemporal dementia‐amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FTD‐ALS) clinical spectrum, late‐onset spinal motor neuropathy (SMAJ), and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease type 2 (CMT2). Here, we

Determination of ADP/ATP translocase isoform ratios in malignancy and cellular senescence

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The individual functions of three isoforms exchanging ADP and ATP (ADP/ATP translocases; ANTs) on the mitochondrial membrane remain unclear. We developed a method for quantitatively differentiating highly similar human ANT1, ANT2, and ANT3 using parallel reaction monitoring. This method allowed us to assess changes in translocase levels during cellular

Comparative analysis of chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes of sweet potato provides evidence of gene transfer

open access: yesScientific Reports
The increasing number of plant mitochondrial DNA genomes (mtDNA) sequenced reveals the extent of transfer from both chloroplast DNA genomes (cpDNA) and nuclear DNA genomes (nDNA).

The complete mitochondrial genome of Hericium coralloides (Hericiaceae, Basidiomycota)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the medicinal mushroom Hericium coralloides (Hericiaceae, Basidiomycota) was sequenced. This mitochondrial genome is 72,961 bp in length and consisted of 14 protein-coding genes, 21 hypothetical open ...

Efficient Mitochondrial Genome Editing by CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
The Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 system has been widely used for nuclear DNA editing to generate mutations or correct specific disease alleles.

Mitochondrial DNA: A disposable genome?

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2015
In mammalian cells, mitochondria are the only organelles besides the nucleus that house genomic DNA. The mammalian mitochondrial genome is represented by prokaryotic-type, circular, highly compacted DNA molecules. Today, more than a half-century after their discovery, the biology of these small and redundant molecules remains much less understood than ...

Survey of Human Mitochondrial Diseases Using New Genomic/Proteomic Tools [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
BACKGROUND. We have constructed Bayesian prior-based, amino-acid sequence profiles for the complete yeast mitochondrial proteome and used them to develop methods for identifying and characterizing the context of protein mutations that give rise to human ...
