Emerging roles of mitochondria in the evolution, biogenesis and function of peroxisomes.
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 In the last century peroxisomes were thought to have an endosymbiotic origin. Along with mitochondria and chloroplasts, peroxisomes primarily regulate their numbers through the growth and division of pre-existing organelles, and they house specific ...

Coordinated balancing of muscle oxidative metabolism through PGC-1α increases metabolic flexibility and preserves insulin sensitivity [PDF]
, 2011 The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) enhances oxidative metabolism in skeletal muscle. Excessive lipid oxidation and electron transport chain activity can, however, lead to the accumulation of harmful metabolites and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study successfully engineered vascularized liver organoids (3HLOs) by co‐culturing human reprogrammed hepatocyte‐like cells (hrHLs) with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs). Upon implantation, the 3HLOs established functional vascular anastomosis with the host circulation and ...

Peroxisomal disorders: The single peroxisomal enzyme deficiencies
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2006 Peroxisomal disorders are a group of inherited diseases in man in which either peroxisome biogenesis or one or more peroxisomal functions are impaired. The peroxisomal disorders identified to date are usually classified in two groups including: (1) the disorders of peroxisome biogenesis, and (2) the single peroxisomal enzyme deficiencies.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study investigates the role of PACS‐2 in IDD, demonstrating that it suppresses the nuclear translocation of SP1, thereby downregulating its downstream target LRRK2. This reduces LRRK2‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation of Mfn2 through the JNK pathway, preserving MAM integrity and promoting NPSC survival.

A Genetic Screen for Mutants with Supersized Lipid Droplets in Caenorhabditis elegans
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 To identify genes that regulate the dynamics of lipid droplet (LD) size, we have used the genetically tractable model organism Caenorhabditis elegans, whose wild-type LD population displays a steady state of size with an upper limit of 3 μm in diameter ...
