Revisiting Inherited Metabolic Diseases (IMDs) Through the Lens of Selective Autophagy
ABSTRACT Selective autophagy is increasingly recognized as a fundamental quality‐control mechanism that complements bulk autophagy by enabling the targeted degradation of specific intracellular cargos, including mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), lipid droplets, glycogen, peroxisomes, ferritin, ribosomes, and protein aggregates.

Curating the Fetal Genome: Experience of the ClinGen Prenatal Gene Curation Expert Panel (GCEP)
ABSTRACT Objective Expert prenatal focused gene‐disease curation is necessary to accurately inform clinical care in the setting of rapidly expanding prenatal genomic sequencing. Methods An international Prenatal Gene Curation Expert Panel assembled and systematically reviewed genes asserted to be associated with prenatal hydrops, stillbirth, or severe ...

ABSTRACT Aim The Na,K‐ATPase is important for energy demanding cellular processes, including essential components of substrate metabolism and metabolic flexibility. Mice heterozygous for the hemiplegic migraine‐related mutation, G301R, of the Na,K‐ATPase α2 isoform (α2+/G301R) demonstrated altered metabolism in the heart.

Monolysocardiolipin in cultured fibroblasts is a sensitive and specific marker for Barth Syndrome
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 membrane remodeling in stress adaptation: Lipid control of organelle quality
Abstract Mitochondria respond to proteotoxic stress through the mitochondrial unfolded protein response, traditionally viewed as a transcriptional program that restores proteostasis by inducing chaperones and proteases. Emerging evidence indicates that mitochondrial membrane remodeling constitutes an additional adaptive component of this response ...

Tafazzin (TAZ) protein has been upregulated in various types of human cancers, although the basis for elevation is uncertain, it has been made definite that the effect of mutation in the hippo pathway, particularly when it is switched off, considerably ...

Abstract Desmoplasia, characterized by excessive expansion of cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and aberrant extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, is widely present especially in invasive cancers. The extranodal extension (ENE) of nodal metastasis involves the extension of invasive tumor cells through the lymph node capsule into the perinodal ...

New C-Terminal Conserved Regions of Tafazzin, a Catalyst of Cardiolipin Remodeling [PDF]
Cardiolipin interacts with many proteins of the mitochondrial inner membrane and, together with cytochrome C and creatine kinase, activates them. It can be considered as an integrating factor for components of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which provides for an efficient transfer of electrons and protons.

ABSTRACT Background Cardiomyopathies encompass a spectrum of myocardial disorders often attributed to underlying genetic mutations. However, genotype–phenotype discordance where the genetic profile does not align with the expected clinical presentation poses significant diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic challenges.
