Small heat shock proteins operate as molecular chaperones in the mitochondrial intermembrane space

open access: yesNature Cell Biology, 2023
Mitochondria are complex organelles with different compartments, each harbouring their own protein quality control factors. While chaperones of the mitochondrial matrix are well characterized, it is poorly understood which chaperones protect the ...

Important amino acid residues of potato plant uncoupling protein (StUCP)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
Chemical modifications were used to identify some of the functionally important amino acid residues of the potato plant uncoupling protein (StUCP). The proton-dependent swelling of potato mitochondria in K+-acetate in the presence of linoleic acid and ...

Rivastigmine prevents injury induced by ischemia and reperfusion in rat liver [PDF]

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2018
Purpose: To evaluate whether pre-treatment with rivastigmine is able to attenuate the I/R induced lesions in rat liver. Methods: SHAM animals or those submitted to I/R, non-treated or pre-treated with rivastigminine (2mg/kg) either 50 or 15 minutes ...

Computational Modeling of In Vitro Swelling of Mitochondria: A Biophysical Approach

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Swelling of mitochondria plays an important role in the pathogenesis of human diseases by stimulating mitochondria-mediated cell death through apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy.

Effect of unsaturated high fatty acid fraction extracted from X-ray irradiated rabbit liver (OX) on the mitochondrial swelling of normal rat liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 1962
The effects of OX, a high unsaturated fatty acid fraction extracted from x-ray irradiated rabbit liver, on rat liver mitochondrial swelling was studied and following results were obtained.

Influence of Microbial Metabolites on the Nonspecific Permeability of Mitochondrial Membranes under Conditions of Acidosis and Loading with Calcium and Iron Ions

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Mitochondrial dysfunction is currently considered one of the main causes of multiple organ failure in chronic inflammation and sepsis. The participation of microbial metabolites in disorders of bioenergetic processes in mitochondria has been revealed ...

Synthetic tambjamine analogues induce mitochondrial swelling and lysosomal dysfunction leading to autophagy blockade and necrotic cell death in lung cancer

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 2017
Current pharmacological treatments for lung cancer show very poor clinical outcomes, therefore, the development of novel anticancer agents with innovative mechanisms of action is urgently needed.

Enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis promotes neuroprotection in human pluripotent stem cell derived retinal ganglion cells

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Mitochondrial dysfunctions are widely afflicted in central nervous system (CNS) disorders with minimal understanding on how to improve mitochondrial homeostasis to promote neuroprotection. Here we have used human stem cell differentiated retinal ganglion

Mitochondrial swelling induced by Ca2+ and inorganic phosphate and its related phenomena [PDF]

open access: yes, 1964
Some investigations have been done on the relationships between the swelling-shrinkage change, oxygen consumption and state of oxidation-reduction of pyridine nucleotides of mitochondria, and between the swelling-shrinkage change of mitochondrial ...
