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

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