How the Wnt signaling pathway protects from neurodegeneration: The Mitochondrial Scenario
Alzheimer´s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder and is characterized by progressive memory loss and cognitive decline. One of the hallmarks of AD is the overproduction of amyloid-beta aggregates that range from the toxic soluble ...

Permeability evolution during progressive development of deformation bands in porous sandstones [PDF]
Triaxial deformation experiments were carried out on large (0.1 m) diameter cores of a porous sandstone in order to investigate the evolution of bulk sample permeability as a function of axial strain and effective confining pressure. The log permeability

The mitochondrial permeability transition pore: A mystery solved?
The permeability transition denotes an increase of the mitochondrial inner membrane permeability to solutes with molecular masses up to about 1,500 Da. It is presumed to be mediated by opening of a channel, the permeability transition pore (PTP), whose ...

A Novel Conceptual Model for the Dual Role of FOF1-ATP Synthase in Cell Life and Cell Death
The mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) has been one of the longstanding enigmas in biology. Its cause is currently at the center of an extensive scientific debate, and several hypotheses on its molecular nature have been put forward. The present

Loading rate dependence of permeability evolution in porous aeolian sandstones [PDF]
Mechanical properties of rocks are characterized by their notable dependence on the applied deformation rate. However, little is known about the strain rate dependence of fluid flow properties since most laboratory tests are conducted using a single ...

C-Jun N-terminal kinase 2 promotes liver injury via the mitochondrial permeability transition after hemorrhage and resuscitation [PDF]
Hemorrhagic shock leads to hepatic hypoperfusion and activation of mitogen-activated stress kinases (MAPK) like c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1 and 2. Our aim was to determine whether mitochondrial dysfunction leading to hepatic necrosis and apoptosis ...

Antamanide, a derivative of Amanita phalloides, is a novel inhibitor of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. [PDF]
Antamanide is a cyclic decapeptide derived from the fungus Amanita phalloides. Here we show that antamanide inhibits the mitochondrial permeability transition pore, a central effector of cell death induction, by targeting the pore regulator cyclophilin D.
