Persistent uptake of high‐calorie diets induces the storage of excessive lipid in visceral adipose tissue. Lipids secreted from obese adipose tissue are accumulated in peripheral tissues such as the liver, pancreas, and muscle, and impair insulin ...

Proteolytic control of mitochondrial protein translocases. [PDF]
Abstract Mitochondria are essential organelles that drive numerous cellular processes, including energy metabolism, ion homeostasis, and programmed cell death. This functional versatility relies on a highly dynamic proteome whose composition is continuously remodeled to meet changing cellular and environmental demands.

The Prohibitins: emerging roles in diverse functions [PDF]
The prohibitins, Phb1 and Phb2 are highly conserved proteins in eukaryotic cells that are present in multiple cellular compartments. Initial investigations focused on the role of Phb1 as an inhibitor of cell proliferation hence the original name prohibitin.

Peptide Adjuvant to Invigorate Cytolytic Activity of NK Cells in an Obese Mouse Cancer Model
Cancer patients who are overweight compared to those with normal body weight have obesity-associated alterations of natural killer (NK) cells, characterized by poor cytotoxicity, slow proliferation, and inadequate anti-cancer activity.

Prohibitin-1 Transgenic Mice Revealed an Important Role of Prohibitin in Testicular Steroidogenesis
Abstract Testosterone, the male sex hormone, plays an important role in the sexual development and fertility. Consequently, its deficiency causes infertility, obesity, osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases. Leydig cells (LCs) are the testicular interstitial cells responsible for the biosynthesis of testosterone in response to ...

A Repressive Role for Prohibitin in Estrogen Signaling [PDF]
Nuclear receptor-mediated gene expression is regulated by corepressors and coactivators. In this study we demonstrate that prohibitin (PHB), a potential tumor suppressor, functions as a potent transcriptional corepressor for estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha).

Discovery of PHB1 as a Novel Candidate Gene in Dominant Optic Atrophy
A heterozygous PHB1 missense variant (p.Ser147Phe) segregates with autosomal dominant optic atrophy in a multi‐generation family. Structural and cellular analyses suggest altered mitochondrial dynamics, identifying PHB1 as a novel candidate gene for hereditary optic neuropathy. ABSTRACT Hereditary optic neuropathies comprise a genetically heterogeneous

The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis
In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.
