Flt3 Activation Mitigates Mitochondrial Fragmentation and Heart Dysfunction through Rebalanced L-OPA1 Processing by Hindering the Interaction between Acetylated p53 and PHB2 in Cardiac Remodeling

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Recent studies have shown that FMS-like receptor tyrosine kinase 3 (Flt3) has a beneficial effect on cardiac maladaptive remodeling. However, the role and mechanism of Flt3 in mitochondrial dynamic imbalance under cardiac stress remains poorly understood.

Role of Prohibitins in Aging and Therapeutic Potential Against Age-Related Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
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

Mitophagy: Permitted by Prohibitin [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2017
Autophagic responses specific for damaged or superfluous mitochondria are crucial for the maintenance of cellular and organismal homeostasis. Recent data demonstrate that components of the inner mitochondrial membrane that are unmasked upon outer membrane permeabilization facilitate the autophagic destruction of the organelle.

Ras-Raf Signaling Needs Prohibitin [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2005
Prohibitin has been connected to diverse cellular functions including cell cycle control, senescence, apoptosis and stabilization of mitochondrial proteins. By employing a loss of function approach using siRNAs we have demonstrated an unexpected role of PHB in the activation of Raf/MEK/ERK pathway by active Ras and in modulating epithelial cell ...

Development of prohibitin ligands against osteoporosis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2021
Current therapeutic approaches to osteoporosis display some potential adverse effects and a limited efficacy on non-vertebral fracture reduction. Some sulfonylamidines targeting the scaffold proteins prohibitins-1 and 2 (PHB1/2) have been showed to inhibit the formation of osteoclasts in charge of bone resorption. Herein, we report the development of a

The Interferon-Inducible Mouse Apolipoprotein L9 and Prohibitins Cooperate to Restrict Theiler's Virus Replication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Apolipoprotein L9b (Apol9b) is an interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) that has antiviral activity and is weakly expressed in primary mouse neurons as compared to other cell types.

Role of inner mitochondrial protein OPA1 in mitochondrial dysfunction by tobacco smoking and in the pathogenesis of COPD

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Background: Chronic lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are linked to several mitochondrial alterations. Cigarette smoke (CS) alters the structure and function of mitochondria.

Proteomic analysis of the rat ovary following chronic low-dose exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a ubiquitously distributed endocrine-disrupting chemical and reproductive toxicant. In order to elucidate low-dose TCDD-mediated effects on reproductive or endocrine functions, female Sprague-Dawley rats were

Involvement of prohibitin 1 and prohibitin 2 upregulation in cBSA-induced podocyte cytotoxicity

open access: yesJournal of Food and Drug Analysis, 2020
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults, when not effectively treated. The aim of this study was to discover new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of MN. A reliable mouse model of MN was used by the administration of cationic bovine serum albumin (cBSA).

Activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) through inhibiting interaction with prohibitins

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: 5′-Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a potential therapeutic target for various medical conditions. We here identify a small-molecule compound (RX-375) that activates AMPK and inhibits fatty acid synthesis in cultured ...
