Mitochondrial complex II and reactive oxygen species in disease and therapy
Increasing evidence points to the respiratory Complex II (CII) as a source and modulator of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Both functional loss of CII as well as its pharmacological inhibition can lead to ROS generation in cells, with a relevant impact ...

Cytochrome c Oxidase Subunit 4 Isoform Exchange Results in Modulation of Oxygen Affinity
Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) is regulated through tissue-, development- or environment-controlled expression of subunit isoforms. The COX4 subunit is thought to optimize respiratory chain function according to oxygen-controlled expression of its isoforms ...

Ca2+ transfer to mitochondria: a spark of life in unexpected conditions
The inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor (InsP3R)-mediated calcium (Ca2+) transfer to mitochondria is important to maintain mitochondrial respiration and bioenergetics in normal and cancer cells, even though cancer cells have defective oxidative ...

The transmission of OXPHOS disease and methods to prevent this [PDF]
Abstract Diseases owing to defects of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) affect approximately 1 in 8000 individuals. Clinical manifestations can be extremely variable and range from single-affected tissues to multisystemic syndromes. In general, tissues with a high energy demand, like brain, heart and muscle, are affected.

The regulation of OXPHOS by extramitochondrial calcium
Despite extensive research, the regulation of mitochondrial function is still not understood completely. Ample evidence shows that cytosolic Ca2+ has a strategic task in co-ordinating the cellular work load and the regeneration of ATP by mitochondria. Currently, the paradigmatic view is that Cacyt2+ taken up by the Ca2+ uniporter activates the matrix ...
