Regulation of hepatic cardiolipin metabolism by TNFα: Implication in cancer cachexia [PDF]
International audienceCardiolipin (CL) content accumulation leads to an increase in energy wasting in liver mitochondria in a rat model of cancer cachexia in which tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is highly expressed.

Decreasing cytosolic translation is beneficial to yeast and human Tafazzin-deficient cells [PDF]
Cardiolipin (CL) optimizes diverse mitochondrial processes, including oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). To function properly, CL needs to be unsaturated, which requires the acyltransferase Tafazzin (TAZ). Loss-of-function mutations in the TAZ gene are responsible for the Barth syndrome (BTHS), a rare X-linked cardiomyopathy, presumably because of a ...

Key Points ER-Hoxb8 conditional immortalization provides a system for the study of TAFAZZIN deficiency in myeloid progenitors and mature neutrophils. Barth syndrome (ie, TAFAZZIN-deficient) murine neutrophils may be more sensitive to apoptosis, possibly ...

Elevated liver glycogenolysis mediates higher blood glucose during acute exercise in Barth syndrome
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked recessive genetic disorder due to mutations in the Tafazzin (TAFAZZIN) gene that lead to cardiac and skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction.

Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is a rare X‐linked genetic disorder caused by mutation in the TAFAZZIN gene. Tafazzin (Taz) deficiency in BTHS patients results in an increased risk of infections.

Modeling the mitochondrial cardiomyopathy of Barth syndrome with iPSC and heart-on-chip technologies [PDF]
Studying monogenic mitochondrial cardiomyopathies may yield insights into mitochondrial roles in cardiac development and disease. Here, we combine patient-derived and genetically engineered iPSCs with tissue engineering to elucidate the pathophysiology ...

Neural Domain Adaptation for Biomedical Question Answering
Factoid question answering (QA) has recently benefited from the development of deep learning (DL) systems. Neural network models outperform traditional approaches in domains where large datasets exist, such as SQuAD (ca.

Mitochondrial dynamism and heart disease: Changing shape and shaping change [PDF]
Mitochondria of adult cardiomyocytes appear hypo-dynamic, lacking interconnected reticular networks and the continual fission and fusion observed in many other cell types.
