Targeting the Multiple Physiologic Roles of VDAC With Steroids and Hydrophobic Drugs
There is accumulating evidence that endogenous steroids and non-polar drugs are involved in the regulation of mitochondrial physiology. Many of these hydrophobic compounds interact with the Voltage Dependent Anion Channel (VDAC).

Redox-dependent gating of VDAC by mitoNEET [PDF]
SignificanceThis 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. These findings have implications for ferroptosis, apoptosis, and iron metabolism by linking VDAC function, mitoNEET, and ...

Co-Incubation of Human Spermatozoa with Anti-VDAC Antibody Reduced Sperm Motility
Background: Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), a channel protein, exists in the outer mitochondrial membrane of somatic cells and is involved in multiple physiological and pathophysiological processes.

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 ...

Voltage-dependent anion channels mediated apoptosis in refractory epilepsy
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,

Apoptosis: it's BAK to VDAC [PDF]
VDAC's role in Bak‐dependent mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization (MOMP) is controversial. Gordon Shore makes sense of it all in light of an EMBO reports paper that shows that VDAC mediates mitochondrial recruitment of Bak, thereby controlling tBid‐induced MOMP.

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

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 ...

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