Peroxisomes are essential organelles in higher eukaryotes as they play a major role in numerous metabolic pathways and redox homeostasis. Some peroxisomal abnormalities, which are often not compatible with life or normal development, were identified in severe demyelinating and neurodegenerative brain diseases.

Aza- and Azo-Stilbenes: Bio-Isosteric Analogs of Resveratrol
Several series of natural polyphenols are described for their biological and therapeutic potential. Natural stilbenoid polyphenols, such as trans-resveratrol, pterostilbene and piceatannol are well-known for their numerous biological activities. However,

A Model of Lipid Monolayer–Bilayer Fusion of Lipid Droplets and Peroxisomes
Lipid droplets are unique organelles that store neutral lipids encapsulated by the lipid monolayer. In some processes of cellular metabolism, lipid droplets interact with peroxisomes resulting in the fusion of their envelopes and the formation of ...

Edgetic Perturbations Contribute to Phenotypic Variability in PEX26 Deficiency
Peroxisomes share metabolic pathways with other organelles and peroxisomes are embedded into key cellular processes. However, the specific function of many peroxisomal proteins remains unclear and restricted knowledge of the peroxisomal protein ...

Peroxisome Synthesis in the Absence of Preexisting Peroxisomes [PDF]
Zellweger syndrome and related diseases are caused by defective import of peroxisomal matrix proteins. In all previously reported Zellweger syndrome cell lines the defect could be assigned to the matrix protein import pathway since peroxisome membranes were present, and import of integral peroxisomal membrane proteins was normal.

Peroxisomes: Organelles at the crossroads [PDF]
Recent years have seen remarkable progress in our understanding of the function of peroxisomes in higher and lower eukaryotes. Combined genetic and biochemical approaches have led to the identification of many genes required for the biogenesis of this organelle.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a non-demyelinating neurodegenerative disease in adults with motor disorders. Two forms exist: a sporadic form (90% of cases) and a family form due to mutations in more than 20 genes including the Superoxide ...
