Voltage-dependent anion channels mediated apoptosis in refractory epilepsy

open access: yesOpen Medicine, 2020
The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) in mitochondria-mediated apoptosis of neurons in refractory epilepsy. Western blot analyses were carried out to detect the changes in cytochrome C, caspase 9,

Glutamate 73 Promotes Anti-arrhythmic Effects of Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel Through Regulation of Mitochondrial Ca2+ Uptake

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Mitochondria critically regulate a range of cellular processes including bioenergetics, cellular metabolism, apoptosis, and cellular Ca2+ signaling. The voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) functions as a passageway for the exchange of ions, including ...

Apoptosis: it's BAK to VDAC [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Reports, 2009
The voltage‐dependent anion channel (VDAC) of the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM; Mannella & Kinnally, 2008)—also known as mitochondrial porin—has long been implicated in regulating the mitochondrial response to certain cell death stimuli (Galluzzi & Kroemer, 2007).

Redox-dependent gating of VDAC by mitoNEET [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019
Significance This work demonstrates that the outer mitochondrial-anchored [2Fe-2S] mitoNEET is able to bind within the central cavity of the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) and regulate its gating in a redox-dependent manner.

VDAC closure increases calcium ion flux [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
VDAC is the major permeability pathway in the mitochondrial outer membrane and can control the flow of metabolites and ions. Therefore Ca2+ flux across the outer membrane occurs mainly through VDAC.

Bid, but Not Bax, Regulates VDAC Channels [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
During apoptosis, cytochrome c is released from mitochondria into the cytosol, where it participates in caspase activation. Various and often conflicting mechanisms have been proposed to account for the increased permeability of the mitochondrial outer membrane that is responsible for this process.

The role of glutamate release on voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC)-mediated apoptosis in an eleven vessel occlusion model in rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is the main protein in mitochondria-mediated apoptosis, and the modulation of VDAC may be induced by the excessive release of extracellular glutamate.

Renaissance of VDAC: New Insights on a Protein Family at the Interface between Mitochondria and Cytosol

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
It has become impossible to review all the existing literature on Voltage-Dependent Anion selective Channel (VDAC) in a single article. A real Renaissance of studies brings this protein to the center of decisive knowledge both for cell physiology and ...

VDAC-1 over-expression potentiates erastin’s cytotoxicity.

open access: yes, 2016
Stably HT-29 cells or NCM460 colon epithelial cells expressing empty vector (pSuper-puro, “Vec”) or VDAC-1 cDNA (“VDAC-1”) were treated with designed erastin for applied time, VDAC-1 expression, cell survival and apoptosis were tested by Western blotting

The intrinsically disordered N-terminus of the voltage-dependent anion channel.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
The voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is a critical β-barrel membrane protein of the mitochondrial outer membrane, which regulates the transport of ions and ATP between mitochondria and the cytoplasm.
