MicroRNA‐661 modulates redox and metabolic homeostasis in colon cancer
Cancer cell survival and metastasis are dependent on metabolic reprogramming that is capable of increasing resistance to oxidative and energetic stress. Targeting these two processes can be crucial for cancer progression.

The First Korean case of combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency-17 diagnosed by clinical and molecular investigation [PDF]
Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency-17 (COXPD-17) is very rare and is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the ELAC2 gene on chromosome 17p12.

Thioredoxin-1 maintains mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) function during oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Thioredoxin 1 (Trx1) is a 12-kDa oxidoreductase that catalyzes thiol-disulfide exchange reactions to reduce proteins with disulfide bonds. As such, Trx1 helps protect the heart against stresses, such as ischemia and pressure overload.

Correlation of structure and function in the oxidative phosphorylation system of submitochondrial particles [PDF]
1. After the centrifugation of sonicated heavy beef heart mitochondria at 75, 000 × g for 10 minutes, the supernatant was centrifuged at 144, 000 × g for 30 minutes. The residue was revealed being composed of vesicular inner membrane fragments (

Rosamines targeting the cancer oxidative phosphorylation pathway. [PDF]
Reprogramming of energy metabolism is pivotal to cancer, so mitochondria are potential targets for anticancer therapy. A prior study has demonstrated the anti-proliferative activity of a new class of mitochondria-targeting rosamines.
