Characterization and functionality of two members of the SPFH protein superfamily, prohibitin 1 and 2 in Leishmania major

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Leishmaniasis, a disease caused by parasites of the genus Leishmania, infects roughly 12 million people worldwide, with about two million new cases per year. Prohibitins (PHBs) are highly conserved proteins belonging to the stomatin-prohibitin

Expression of prohibitins on the surface of activated T cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Prohibitins (prohibitin-1 and -2) comprise a family of highly conserved proteins that are mainly localized to mitochondria. Recent studies showed that prohibitins are up-regulated upon T cell activation and play an essential role in maintaining ...

Prohibitin as an oxidative stress biomarker in the eye [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2010
Identification of biomarker proteins in the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) under oxidative stress may imply new insights into signaling mechanisms of retinal degeneration at the molecular level. Proteomic data from an in vivo mice model in constant light and an in vitro oxidative stress model are compared to controls under normal ...

Loss of prohibitin membrane scaffolds impairs mitochondrial architecture and leads to tau hyperphosphorylation and neurodegeneration.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Fusion and fission of mitochondria maintain the functional integrity of mitochondria and protect against neurodegeneration, but how mitochondrial dysfunctions trigger neuronal loss remains ill-defined.

Flavaglines Stimulate Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin Type 6 (TRPM6) Channel Activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Magnesium (Mg2+) is essential for enzymatic activity, brain function and muscle contraction. Blood Mg2+ concentrations are tightly regulated between 0.7 and 1.1 mM by Mg2+ (re)absorption in kidney and intestine.

Structure-function analysis of human stomatin: A mutation study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Stomatin is an ancient, widely expressed, oligomeric, monotopic membrane protein that is associated with cholesterol-rich membranes/lipid rafts. It is part of the SPFH superfamily including stomatin-like proteins, prohibitins, flotillin/reggie proteins ...

Glucocorticoid Receptor Signaling in Myeloid Cells Orchestrates Inflammation Resolution and Muscle Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Glucocorticoids (GC) are widely used to reduce inflammation. We show that the glucocorticoid receptor in myeloid cells regulates macrophage cell cycle and genome integrity during muscle regeneration. We demonstrate that dexamethasone administration during the early inflammatory phase delays muscle repair by increasing macrophage proliferation ...

Prohibitin, an antiproliferative protein, is localized to mitochondria

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1995
Prohibitin is a ubiquitously expressed protein with antiproliferative properties. When rat prohibitin tagged with a carboxy‐terminal c‐Myc epitope was expressed in baby hamster kidney cells the protein was targeted to mitochondria. In immunofluorescence microscopy prohibitin colocalized with a mitochondrial marker E3. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed
