Development of prohibitin ligands against osteoporosis
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

Functional characterization of prohibitins by conditional inactivation in the mouse [PDF]
Prohibitins comprise an evolutionary conserved and ubiquitously expressed family of membrane proteins implicated in a large variety of cellular processes. Large assemblies of PHB1 and PHB2 subunits are localized in the inner membrane of mitochondria, but

The Identification of Prohibitin in the Rat Heart Mitochondria in Heart Failure
Mitochondria are considered the main organelles in the cell. They play an important role in both normal and abnormal heart function. There is a supramolecular organization between the complexes of the respiratory chain (supercomplexes (SCs)), which are ...

Exploring thylakoid emergence: evolution of membrane biogenesis and photosystem II assembly in early-diverging cyanobacteria. [PDF]
Overview of the results. Phylogenetic analyses of 36 assembly factors of photosystem II (PSII) and 13 proteins involved in membrane dynamics summarized in Siebenaller & Schneider (2023) were performed to investigate the taxonomic distributions and structural differences between the thylakoid‐less Gloeobacterales and the Phycobacteria. Summary Thylakoid

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

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 ...

Mitochondrial Band-7 family proteins: scaffolds for respiratory chain assembly?
The band-7 protein family comprises a diverse set of membrane-bound proteins characterised by the presence of a conserved domain. The exact function of this band-7 domain remains elusive, but examples from animal and bacterial stomatin-type proteins ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction and adipogenic reduction by prohibitin silencing in 3T3-L1 cells. [PDF]
Increase in mitochondrial biogenesis has been shown to accompany brown and white adipose cell differentiation. Prohibitins (PHBs), comprised of two evolutionarily conserved proteins, prohibitin-1 (PHB1) and prohibitin-2 (PHB2), are present in a high ...
