Human Influenza A Virus (IAV) Decreases Mitochondrial Respiration of Infected MDCK Cell [PDF]
Studies of interaction between viruses and mitochondria have shown that they can affect the mitochondria and induce mitochondrial alterations. Sometimes this interaction leads to induction or inhibition of apoptosis in infected cells. Interaction between

Inhibition of mitochondrial respiration by phosphoenolpyruvate [PDF]
The cytosolic factors that influence mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation rates are relatively unknown. In this report, we examine the effects of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), a glycolytic intermediate, on mitochondrial function. It is reported here that in rat heart mitochondria, PEP delays the onset of state 3 respiration in mitochondria supplied ...

Analysis of mitochondrial respiration and ATP synthase in frozen brain tissues
Studying mitochondrial respiration capacity is essential for gaining insights into mitochondrial functions. In frozen tissue samples, however, our ability to study mitochondrial respiration is restricted by damage elicited to the inner mitochondrial ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
