Monolysocardiolipin in cultured fibroblasts is a sensitive and specific marker for Barth Syndrome

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked recessive disorder that results in abnormal metabolism of the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin (CL). CLs are decreased and monolysocardiolipins (MLCLs), intermediates in CL metabolism, are increased in a variety

Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Pancreatic β Cell Function: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets for Diabetes

Journal of Diabetes, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
This review highlights mitochondrial dysfunction as a central driver of pancreatic β cell failure in diabetes, caused by disrupted mitochondrial quality control (MQC), oxidative stress, and impaired organelle communication. Emerging therapies, such as DRAK2 inhibitors and metabolic reprogramming agents, show promise in restoring β cell function by ...

Novel drugs approved by the EMA, the FDA and the MHRA in 2025: A year in review

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 1779-1813, May 2026.
Abstract In the 2025 novel drug mini‐review, one can take a full measure of the ingenuity that underlies current drug design and development, despite the year's smaller harvest (46 novel drugs) compared to 2024 (53) and 2023 (70). 54% of the novel drugs are first‐in‐class (FIC).

Stimulating myocardial pyruvate dehydrogenase activity fails to alleviate cardiac abnormalities in a mouse model of human Barth syndrome

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a rare genetic disorder due to mutations in the TAFAZZIN gene, leading to impaired maturation of cardiolipin and thereby adversely affecting mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, often resulting in cardiomyopathy.

Deletion of Tafazzin in Cardiomyocytes Results in Dilated Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2020
Cardiolipin, the signature phospholipid of mitochondria, is crucial for mitochondrial function and architecture in the heart. Defects in cardiolipin remodeling processes and metabolism lead to cardiomyopathy, as seen in patients with Barth Syndrome (BTHS)

Matrifibrocytes Redefine Cardiac Fibrosis: From Terminal Differentiation to Translational Modulation

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cardiac fibrosis is increasingly recognized as a dynamic program that resolves into a terminal fibroblast fate, the matrifibrocyte, rather than a persistent myofibroblast state. Lineage‐tracing and single‐cell studies reveal that matrifibrocytes arise from activated myofibroblasts during late scar maturation, lose α‐SMA and proliferative ...

BMAL1 Drives Cisplatin Resistance in Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer Via Lactate‐MRP1 Signaling Pathway

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 8, April 2026.
The drug cisplatin induces BMAL1 expression through AKT signaling in response to cisplatin‐induced oxidative stress. BMAL1 activates HIF‐1α‐mediated metabolic reprogramming and lactate production, which in turn activates the TAZ/c‐Jun/Snail complex to upregulate drug efflux pump MRP1, initiating and sustaining chemoresistance. ABSTRACT Lung cancer, the

Role of Tafazzin and its isoforms on cardiolipin composition, cellular proliferation and gene expression [PDF]

, 2023
Tafazzin is an acyltransferase with key functions in remodeling of the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin (CL) by exchanging single fatty acids species in CL.

Expanding genetic landscape of inherited bone marrow failure syndromes: Insights from the Canadian Inherited Marrow Failure Registry (CIMFR) (2001–2023)

British Journal of Haematology, Volume 208, Issue 4, Page 1407-1418, April 2026.
Summary Inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFSs) are genetically heterogeneous with an expanding spectrum of causative genes. Recent molecular advances are thought to have contributed to genetic identification, yet the true gain in diagnostic yield remains unclear.

Reduction in mRNA Expression of the Neutrophil Chemoattract Factor CXCL1 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Treated Barth Syndrome B Lymphoblasts

Biology, 2023
Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is a rare X-linked genetic disease caused by a mutation in the TAFAZZIN gene, which codes for the protein tafazzin involved in cardiolipin remodeling.
