Role of Prohibitins in Aging and Therapeutic Potential Against Age-Related Diseases
A decline in mitochondrial function has long been associated with age-related health decline. Several lines of evidence suggest that interventions that stimulate mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) can slow aging and prolong healthy lifespan. Prohibitins

Mitochondrial fusion and Bid-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis are perturbed by alcohol with distinct dependence on its metabolism [PDF]
Environmental stressors like ethanol (EtOH) commonly target mitochondria to influence the cell’s fate. Recent literature supports that chronic EtOH exposure suppresses mitochondrial dynamics, central to quality control, and sensitizes mitochondrial ...

Intense Exercise Promotes Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis But Not Spatial Discrimination
Hippocampal neurogenesis persists throughout adult life and plays an important role in learning and memory. Although the influence of physical exercise on neurogenesis has been intensively studied, there is controversy in regard to how the impact of ...

Downregulation of lung mitochondrial prohibitin in COPD [PDF]
Prohibitins (PHB1 and PHB2) are versatile proteins located at the inner mitochondrial membrane, maintaining normal mitochondrial function and morphology. They interact with the NADH dehydrogenase protein complex, which is essential for oxidoreductase activity within cells. However, their expression in lung epithelium, especially in smokers and patients

Dual-Targeted Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide-Loaded Photothermal Nanoparticles to Prevent Obesity via Lipolysis and Browning of White Adipose Tissue. [PDF]
Current weight‐loss medications inevitably cause adverse effects such as depression or muscle loss. The developed GIP/ICG@P/R8 NPs specifically promoted energy expenditure by inducing browning, lipolysis and apoptosis of WAT in vitro and in vivo. The results showed a 9.23% weight reduction after 14 days, enhanced insulin sensitivity, improved fatty ...

The role of prohibitin in cell signaling [PDF]
Prohibitin‐1 (PHB, also known as PHB1), a member of the Band‐7 family of proteins, is highly conserved evolutionarily, widely expressed, and present in different cellular compartments. Genetic studies with different organism models have provided strong evidence for an important biological role of PHB in mitochondrial function, cell proliferation, and ...
