Mitochondrial proton leak and the uncoupling protein 1 homologues
Mitochondrial proton leak is the largest single contributor to the standard metabolic rate (SMR) of a rat, accounting for about 20% of SMR. Yet the mechanisms by which proton leak occurs are incompletely understood. The available evidence suggests that both phospholipids and proteins in the mitochondrial inner membrane are important determinants of ...

s: Skeletal muscles have a high demand for ATP, which is met largely through mitochondria oxidative phosphorylation. Autophagy is essential for the maintenance of skeletal muscle mass under catabolic conditions.

Depletion of mitochondria in mammalian cells through enforced mitophagy [PDF]
Mitochondria are not only the 'powerhouse' of the cell; they are also involved in a multitude of processes that include calcium storage, the cell cycle and cell death.

Identification of serine phosphorylation in mitochondrial uncoupling protein 1
Native uncoupling protein 1 was purified from rat brown adipose tissue of cold-acclimated rats and rats kept at room temperature, in the presence of phosphatase inhibitors. The purified protein from cold-acclimated animals was digested with trypsin and immobilized metal affinity chromatography was used to select for phosphopeptides.

Tissue-dependent DNA methylation of carp uncoupling protein 1 promoter [PDF]
DNA methylation of enhancers and promoters generally inhibits gene transcription. DNA methylation occurs predominantly at the dinucleotide CpG, a methyl group that is covalently bonded to cytosine. We have previously demonstrated tissue-restricted expression of the uncoupling protein 1 ( Ucp1) in common carp.

Thermogenic Capacity of Human White-Fat: The Actual Picture†
AIM: Cold exposure and exercise may increase thermogenic capacity of white adipose tissue (WAT), which could subsequently enhance energy expenditure and body weight loss.

Summary: Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac hormone controlling blood volume and pressure in mammals. It is still unclear whether ANP controls cold-induced thermogenesis in vivo.

Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Role of Esrrg in the Fibrate-Mediated Regulation of Lipid Metabolism Genes in Human ApoA-I Transgenic Mice [PDF]
We have used a new ApoA-I transgenic mouse model to identify by global gene expression profiling, candidate genes that affect lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in response to fenofibrate treatment.
