Specific VDAC inhibitors: phosphorothioate oligonucleotides
VDAC channels are ancient, highly-conserved voltage-gated channels in the mitochondrial outer membrane. They are the pathways by which metabolites travel between the cytosol and mitochondria.

Abstract Mitochondrial cristae architecture is central for optimal oxidative phosphorylation and a healthy mitochondrial physiology. The intricate architecture of the inner mitochondrial membrane relies on protein complexes that compartmentalize the membrane by imposing membrane curvature, forming membrane contact sites or membrane subdomains ...

VDAC: the wizard of mitochondrial OM
Voltage dependent anion channels (VDAC) are the most abundant proteins in the outer mitochondrial membrane. Although they are essential in metabolite exchange, cell defense and apoptosis, the molecular mechanism of these VDAC-mediated processes remains ...

The Mechanism of NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Its Roles in Chronic Rhinosinusitis
ABSTRACT NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) is one of the crucial receptors in pathogen recognition receptor (PRR) families which can recognize the pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and the damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), thus triggering innate immune response. After NLRP3 activation, it recruits the adaptor protein

VDAC Regulation by Cytosolic Proteins [PDF]
Voltage-dependent anion channel VDAC, positioned on the interface between mitochondria and the cytosol, is at the control point of mitochondria life and death. This large channel plays the role of a “switch” that defines in which direction mitochondria will go: to normal respiration or to suppression of mitochondria metabolism that leads to apoptosis ...

Blocking VDAC abolishes BNIP3-induced mitochondrial release of EndoG.
A, Mitochondria (1 mg/ml) were incubated with a recombinant GST-BNIP3 in the presence of 0.3 mg/ml of an anti-VDAC antibody or normal rabbit IgG in control. Incubation with the trunked BNIP3 (BNIP3ΔTM) was used as a control.

Mitochondrial DNA: A Key Alarmin Igniting the Inflammasome Fire in Health and Disease
This review illustrates how mitochondrial DNA, released under cellular stress, acts as a key alarmin that ignites innate immune sensors, particularly inflammasomes and the cGAS‐STING pathway. This paper details how this sustained “inflammasome fire” fuels the progression of diverse inflammatory diseases, including neurodegeneration and metabolic ...

PERSPECTIVE: organelle positioning as a principle of metabolic regulation and stress tolerance
SUMMARY Plants have evolved elaborate acclimation strategies to withstand adverse environments, involving all levels of their function and organization. While macroscopic movements through differential growth that enable the physical re‐shaping and ‐positioning of organs have been a major field of study, the highly active dynamics of cell organelles ...

VDAC blockage by phosphorothioate oligonucleotides and its implication in apoptosis
Apoptosis is a crucial process that regulates the homeostasis of multicellular organisms. Impaired apoptosis contributes to cancer development, while enhanced apoptosis is detrimental in neurodegenerative diseases.
