Optimal timing to assess exercise‐induced oxidative stress: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a lack of consensus on optimal timing to assess redox biomarkers post‐exercise, limiting methodological standardisation and linking oxidative stress to physiology. We determined optimal post‐exercise oxidative stress assessment times using three redox biomarkers: glutathione, F2‐isoprostanes and protein carbonyls.

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

Frequent Losses of Heterozygosity in the Mitofusin 2 Gene in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Their Relationship to Clinicopathological Features

, 2013
Background The aim of the study was to determine the features of loss of heterozygosity in the mitofusin 2 gene and their association with clinicopathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy type 2A: novel mutations in the mitofusin 2 gene (MFN2)

BMC Medical Genetics, 2006
Background Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathies are a group of genetically heterogeneous diseases of the peripheral nervous system. Mutations in the MFN2 gene have been reported as the primary cause of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A.

Mitochondrial alterations as potential early events in neuromuscular junction remodelling with muscle disuse

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Physical inactivity impairs neuromuscular health, promoting skeletal muscle atrophy, mitochondrial changes, and neuromuscular junction (NMJ) instability. However, the interplay between mitochondria and NMJ alterations in the context of muscle disuse remains underexplored.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

Loss of Mfn1 but not Mfn2 enhances adipogenesis.

PLoS ONE
ObjectiveA biallelic missense mutation in mitofusin 2 (MFN2) causes multiple symmetric lipomatosis and partial lipodystrophy, implicating disruption of mitochondrial fusion or interaction with other organelles in adipocyte differentiation, growth and/or ...

Structural insights of human mitofusin-2 into mitochondrial fusion and CMT2A onset

Nature Communications, 2019
Mitofusin-2 (MFN2) is a dynamin-like GTPase that plays a central role in regulating mitochondrial fusion and cell metabolism. Here, authors report crystal structures of truncated human MFN2 in different nucleotide-loading states and show that MFN2 forms ...
