SARS‐CoV‐2 targets mitochondria, exacerbating COVID‐19 pneumonia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Following entry into airway epithelial cells (AECs), SARS‐CoV‐2 releases its single‐stranded RNA into the cytoplasm, where it is translated into viral proteins. Several of these viral proteins localize to mitochondria and interact with key mitochondrial components.

Crosstalk between endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial homeostasis: A new perspective on ophthalmic disease treatment

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 2, June 2026.
The graphical abstract follows a top‐to‐bottom flow: stressors → ER–mitochondria crosstalk → ophthalmic diseases. The central panel highlights three core mitochondria‐associated membrane function axes, color‐coded as follows: light yellow for Ca2+ homeostasis, light blue for mitochondrial dynamics, and light red for mitophagy.

Heme Metabolism‐Derived Carbon Monoxide Regulates Skeletal Muscle Function

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Heme oxygenases, HO‐1 (Hmox1) and HO‐2 (Hmox2), regulate skeletal muscle homeostasis by degrading heme and generating carbon monoxide (CO), a bioactive signalling molecule. Although HO‐1 is known to influence muscle fibre composition and mitochondrial function, the role of HO‐2 in activity‐dependent neuromuscular plasticity remains ...

Stomatin-like Protein 2 Links Mitochondria to T-Cell Receptor Signalosomes at the Immunological Synapse and Enhances T-Cell Activation [PDF]

, 2007
T cell activation through the antigen receptor (TCR) requires sustained signalling from microclusters in the peripheral region of the immunological synapse (IS).

Mitochondrial reprogramming in lung cancer: a therapeutic vulnerability and a strategy for reversing drug resistance

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 269, Issue 2, Page 149-163, June 2026.
Abstract The conceptualization of mitochondria, previously restricted to their function as cellular ‘powerhouses’, has evolved to recognize their function as central coordinating hubs for the orchestration of cancer cell metabolism, signaling, and fate determination.

Mitochondrial Transplantation as a New Therapeutic Approach Against Cardiac and Renal Consequences in Male Rats With Myocardial Infarction

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. MI is associated with cardiac structural and functional alterations. Among these, cardiac fibrosis may be significantly influenced by mitochondrial dysfunction. We sought to evaluate whether the injection of functional mitochondria from healthy muscle could improve

OPA1 in MC4R Neurons Regulates Dietary Fat Intake and Body Weight in Mice

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 10, 31 May 2026.
Soybean oil intake induces OPA1 expression in hypothalamic MC4R neurons, contributing to adaptive regulation of appetite. MC4R neuron‐specific OPA1 deficiency increases soybean oil consumption and leads to obesity, with a more pronounced effect in females.

Upregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator gene ( PGC1A ) during weight loss is related to insulin sensitivity but not to energy expenditure [PDF]

, 2018
Aims/hypothesis: We investigated whether skeletal muscle peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 (PGC1A; also known as PPARGC1A) and its target mitofusin-2 (MFN2), as well as carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT1; also known as ...

Intercompartmental communication in senescence

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 837-856, May 2026.
Senescent cells experience structural changes in the plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, lysosomes, nucleus, and cytoskeleton. These alterations disrupt crosstalk among cellular compartments, impairing vesicular trafficking, contact sites, and molecular flow.

Bioactive Conductive Ti3C2Tx‐Ce Hydrogel Facilitates Spinal Cord Injury Repair Through ROS Scavenging and Mitochondrial Regulation

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 39, 14 May 2026.
Bioactive conductive Ti3C2Tx‐Ce hydrogels with with scavenging ROS and alleviating neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction are exploited for SCI treatment. This functionality is attributed to interfacial activation modification of Ti3C2Tx with Ce3+ ions to in‐situ form Ce(OH)x‐mediated protective layer, which is beneficial to enabling stable intracellular ...
