Mitochondrial Fragmentation Due to Inhibition of Fusion Increases Cyclin B through Mitochondrial Superoxide Radicals. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
During the cell cycle, mitochondria undergo regulated changes in morphology. Two particularly interesting events are first, mitochondrial hyperfusion during the G(1)-S transition and second, fragmentation during entry into mitosis.

Wavelength‐Dependent Photobiomodulation Regulates Macrophage Polarization via Mitochondrial Dynamics and Metabolic Reprogramming

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Light wavelength encodes distinct macrophage fates through mitochondrial and metabolic remodeling. Red 625 nm irradiation induces glycolysis, mitochondrial fission, and M1 polarization, whereas near‐infrared 850 nm irradiation promotes fatty acid oxidation, mitochondrial fusion, and M2 polarization.

A mitofusin-dependent docking ring complex triggers mitochondrial fusion in vitro

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Fusion of mitochondrial outer membranes is crucial for proper organelle function and involves large GTPases called mitofusins. The discrete steps that allow mitochondria to attach to one another and merge their outer membranes are unknown.

A Metal‐Phenolic Nanocluster Orchestrates Mito‐Ca2+ Metabolic Autonomy for Tumor Ca2+ Interference Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tumor Ca2+ interference therapy suffers from self‐protective Ca2+ metabolic autoregulation. In this scenario, a versatile metal‐phenolic nanocluster (TCMH) is engineered to modulate mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) ‐mediated mito‐Ca2+ metabolic autonomy.

Bacterial dynamin-like proteins reveal mechanism for membrane fusion

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The dynamin superfamily of large GTPases comprises specialized members that catalyze fusion and fission of biological membranes. While fission-specific proteins such as dynamin work as homo-oligomeric complexes, many fusion catalysts such as mitofusins ...

Mitofusin1 in oocyte is essential for female fertility

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2019
Mitofusins (Mfn) are the important regulators of mitochondrial organization in mammalian cells; however, their roles during oocyte development remain unknown.

Regulating a uniter: control of mitofusin 2 expression [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2012
This editorial refers to ‘The promoter activity of human Mfn2 depends on Sp1 in vascular smooth muscle cells’ by E. Sorianello et al. , pp. 38–47, this issue. Sorianello et al. 1 provide important new information on the regulation on mitofusin (Mfn)2 expression.

Ubiquitination and receptor-mediated mitophagy converge to eliminate oxidation-damaged mitochondria during hypoxia

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
The contribution of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System (UPS) to mitophagy has been largely attributed to the E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin. Here we show that in response to the oxidative stress associated with hypoxia or the hypoxia mimic CoCl2, the damaged ...

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Novel Organelle‐Based Intracellular Immunity With Mechanistic and Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesBarrier Immunity, EarlyView.
A conceptual framework illustrating how PAMPs/DAMPs initiate barrier, innate, adaptive, and intracellular immune responses, with organelle‐based intracellular immunity serving as a central integrator linking metabolism, inflammatory signaling, and therapeutic interventions to restore immune homeostasis.
