Pro‐ and Anti‐Inflammatory Macrophages Adjust UCP2 Protein Levels Based on Their Intrinsic Metabolism and Available Metabolites

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 6, June 2026.
LPS‐stimulated macrophages exhibit high glycolytic flux, with pyruvate preferentially converted to lactate even under normoglycemic conditions, limiting pyruvate availability for the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and reducing oxygen consumption rate (OCR).

The VDAC channel: Molecular basis for selectivity

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2016
The voltage dependent anion-selective channel, VDAC, is the major permeability pathway by which molecules and ion cross the mitochondrial outer membrane. This pathway has evolved to optimize the flow of these substances and to control this flow by a gating process that is influenced by a variety of factors including transmembrane voltage.

Sites and functional consequence of VDAC–alkylphenol anesthetic interactions

open access: yes, 2014
General anesthetics have previously been shown to bind mitochondrial VDAC. Here, using a photoactive analog of the anesthetic propofol, we determined that alkylphenol anesthetics bind to Gly56 and Val184 on rat VDAC1.

Lipocalin‐2 Restores Mitochondrial and Antioxidant Adaptation in a Strain‐Specific Manner During LPS Induced Sepsis

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 241, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sepsis induces profound metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction, contributing to multiple organ injury and mortality. Lipocalin‐2 (Lcn2), an acute‐phase protein, regulates iron homeostasis and oxidative stress, but its impact on mitochondrial resilience remains poorly understood.

Plasmalemmal VDAC controversies and maxi-anion channel puzzle

open access: yes, 2012
The maxi-anion channel has been observed in many cell types from the very beginning of the patch-clamp era. The channel is highly conductive for chloride and thus can modulate the resting membrane potential and play a role in fluid secretion/absorption ...

Genome-wide identification, characterization and expression pattern analysis of the VDAC gene family reveals likely roles in rapid shoot growth and abiotic stress in Moso bamboo ((Phyllostachys edulis (Carrière) J.Houz.)

open access: yesAdvances in Bamboo Science
Moso bamboo is an important fast-growing forest species. The rapid growth of its shoots and its ability to respond to environmental stresses, such as drought and low temperatures, directly influence its shoot yield and quality.

VDAC1 as Pharmacological Target in Cancer and Neurodegeneration: Focus on Its Role in Apoptosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2018
Cancer and neurodegeneration are different classes of diseases that share the involvement of mitochondria in their pathogenesis. Whereas the high glycolytic rate (the so-called Warburg metabolism) and the suppression of apoptosis are key elements for the

To Include Plasmalemmal VDAC/Porin Pays

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
The paper of Teijido et al. (1) will hopefully stimulate closer contacts between structure people and physiologists in the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) community. It refines the VDAC model of Marco Colombini and also refers to the accessibility of the VDAC N-terminal end at mitochondria or the outer surface of the plasmalemma.

Exploring and Targeting the Connection of Iron and Copper Homeostasis to Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Iron and copper dyshomeostasis, along with their interactions with key intrinsically disordered proteins (e.g., Aβ, tau, α‐synuclein) have a strong implication in the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Prion diseases (PrDs), Huntington's disease (HD), Wilson's disease (WD),
