Co‐overexpression of the caloric restriction‐induced mitochondrial factors PGC‐1α and MIPEP upregulates Phospho1 expression in adipocytes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caloric restriction that extends lifespan induces the expression of PGC‐1α and MIPEP in white adipose tissue. In this study, co‐overexpression of Pgc‐1α and Mipep upregulated the gene expression of PHOSPHO1. These findings provide new insights into mitochondria‐related mechanisms underlying the effects of caloric restriction in adipocytes.

Mechanisms of Respiratory Failure

, 2006
A. In an adult, the limits of normality are a PaO 2 of >60 Torr (8 kPa). B. In the newborn, the oxygen tension needed to maintain the arterial saturation above 90% varies between 40 and 60 Torr (5.3–8 kPa) depending upon the proportion of hemoglobin that is fetal and the arterial pH (a drop in pH of 0.2 eliminates the left shift produced by 70% of the ...
