Of mitochondrion and COVID-19 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2021
COVID-19, a pandemic disease caused by a viral infection, is associated with a high mortality rate. Most of the signs and symptoms, e.g. cytokine storm, electrolytes imbalances, thromboembolism, etc., are related to mitochondrial dysfunction.

AMPK regulates ARF1 localization to membrane contact sites to facilitate fatty acid transfer between lipid droplets and mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Lipid droplet (LD) -mitochondrion contacts play a crucial role in regulating energy metabolism and fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle cells. However, the proteins that regulate these interactions remain poorly understood.

The selfish mitochondrion [PDF]

open access: yesCell Calcium, 2021
Mitochondria match ATP supply to fluctuations in cellular energy requirements. Cellular energy requirements are often signaled to mitochondria by increases in the cytoplasmic concentration of Ca2+ ions. These increases in Ca2+ reach the mitochondrial matrix to regulate the proteins, enzymes and transporters required for mitochondrial ATP synthesis ...

Optical Properties and Interference Effects of the Lens Mitochondrion

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
The lens mitochondrion of the tree shrew, located along the optical pathway between the lens and photoreceptors, has been investigated. The results suggest that the lens mitochondrion acts as a quasi-bandgap or imperfect photonic crystal.

Perspectives on Mitochondria–ER and Mitochondria–Lipid Droplet Contact in Hepatocytes and Hepatic Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesCells, 2021
Emerging evidence suggests that mitochondrion–endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondrion–lipid droplet (LD) contact sites are critical in regulating lipid metabolism in cells.

Mitochondrion-specific dendritic lipopeptide liposomes for targeted sub-cellular delivery

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The mitochondrion is an important sub-cellular organelle responsible for the cellular energetic source and processes. Owing to its unique sensitivity to heat and reactive oxygen species, the mitochondrion is an appropriate target for photothermal and ...
