Hormone deprivation alters mitochondrial function and lipid profile in the hippocampus [PDF]
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a common hallmark in aging. In the female, reproductive senescence is characterized by loss of ovarian hormones, many of whose neuroprotective effects converge upon mitochondria.

Hypoxia and hyperglycaemia determine why some endometrial tumours fail to respond to metformin [PDF]
High expression of Ki67, a proliferation marker, is associated with reduced endometrial cancer-specific survival. Pre-surgical metformin reduces tumour Ki-67 expression in some women with endometrial cancer. Metformin's anti-cancer activity may relate to

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

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 ...

Site-1 protease inhibits mitochondrial respiration by controlling the TGF-β target gene Mss51
Summary: The mitochondrial response to changes in cellular energy demand is necessary for cellular adaptation and organ function. Many genes are essential in orchestrating this response, including the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 target gene Mss51,
