Mitofusins and OPA1 Mediate Sequential Steps in Mitochondrial Membrane Fusion [PDF]
Mitochondrial fusion requires the coordinated fusion of the outer and inner membranes. Three large GTPases—OPA1 and the mitofusins Mfn1 and Mfn2—are essential for the fusion of mammalian mitochondria.

Reactive Oxygen Species and the Regulation of Hyperproliferation in a Colonial Hydroid [PDF]
Colonies of Podocoryna carnea circulate gastrovascular fluid among polyps via tubelike stolons. At polyp-stolon junctions, mitochondrion-rich cells in part regulate this gastrovascular flow.

Autophagy: A cyto-protective mechanism which prevents primary human hepatocyte apoptosis during oxidative stress [PDF]
The role of autophagy in the response of human hepatocytes to oxidative stress remains unknown. Understanding this process may have important implications for the understanding of basic liver epithelial cell biology and the responses of hepatocytes ...
