Zonal heterogeneity of peroxisome proliferation and morphology in rat liver after gemfibrozil treatment.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1989
The effect of gemfibrozil on the fine structure of peroxisomes across the rat liver lobule was investigated by light and electron microscopy using the alkaline diaminobenzidine (DAB) medium for the visualization of catalase peroxidatic activity. The oral

Research progress on the metabolic functions and protein compositions of plant peroxisomes

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版
Peroxisomes are multifunctional organelles that are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. In plants, peroxisomes have very diverse functions in primary and secondary metabolisms and play important roles in plant growth and development as well as in stress response ...

A critical reflection on the principles of peroxisome formation in yeast

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
We have evaluated the current knowledge on peroxisome proliferation in yeast. In wild-type cells, peroxisomes multiply predominantly by fission at conditions that require peroxisome function(s) for growth.

A Study on the Origin of Peroxisomes: Possibility of Actinobacteria Symbiosis

open access: yes, 2008
The origin of peroxisomes as having developed from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was proposed on the basis of the similarity between some peroxisomal proteins and ER proteins, and the localization of some peroxisomal proteins on the ER.

No peroxisome is an island — Peroxisome contact sites

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2016
In order to optimize their multiple cellular functions, peroxisomes must collaborate and communicate with the surrounding organelles. A common way of communication between organelles is through physical membrane contact sites where membranes of two organelles are tethered, facilitating exchange of small molecules and intracellular signaling.

Peroxisome Metabolism in Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2020
Peroxisomes are metabolic organelles involved in lipid metabolism and cellular redoxbalance. Peroxisomal function is central to fatty acid oxidation, ether phospholipid synthesis, bile acidsynthesis, and reactive oxygen species homeostasis.

Peroxisomes are required for lipid metabolism and muscle function in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles that perform lipid and reactive oxygen species metabolism. Defects in peroxisome biogenesis cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs).

Implication of peroxisomes and mitochondria in the halophyte Cakile maritima tolerance to salinity stress

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2019
The role of mitochondria and peroxisomes in the tolerance of the halophyte Cakile martima to salt stress was studied. The plants were subjected to 0, 100, and 200 mM NaCl for 5 weeks.

Rise and fall of peroxisomes during Alzheimer´s disease: a pilot study in human brains

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2023
Peroxisomes are eukaryotic organelles that rapidly change in number depending on the metabolic requirement of distinct cell types and tissues. In the brain, these organelles are essential for neuronal migration and myelination during development and ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...
