Etoposide is an inhibitor of DNA topoisomerase II, an enzyme essential for DNA transcription, replication, and chromosome segregation. It is well accepted that etoposide triggers cell death due to DNA damage.

The phenomenon of DNA import into mitochondria has been shown for all major groups of eukaryotes. In plants and animals, DNA import seems to occur in different ways. It has been known that nucleic acids enter plant organelles through alternative channels,

VDAC1-based peptide as potential treatment for pathologies of the liver and pancreas
Diseases associated with damage to such vital organs of the digestive system as the liver and pancreas are an urgent problem of world health. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a worldwide epidemic; the problem of type 2 diabetes (T2D) mellitus

IP3R1/GRP75/VDAC1 complex mediates endoplasmic reticulum stress-mitochondrial oxidative stress in diabetic atrial remodeling [PDF]
Rationale Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are important mechanisms of atrial remodeling, predisposing to the development of atrial fibrillation (AF) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Probing the orientation of yeast VDAC1 in vivo [PDF]
Voltage dependent anion channel (VDAC) is a vital ion channel in mitochondrial outer membranes and its structure was recently shown to be a 19 stranded β‐barrel. However the orientation of VDAC in the membrane remains unclear. We probe here the topology and membrane orientation of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae in vivo.

VDAC1 regulates neuronal cell loss after retinal trauma injury by a mitochondria-independent pathway
The voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) was first described as a mitochondrial porin that mediates the flux of metabolites and ions, thereby integrating both cell survival and death signals.

VDAC1 Is a Transplasma Membrane NADH-Ferricyanide Reductase [PDF]
Porin isoform 1 or VDAC (voltage-dependent anion-selective channel) 1 is the predominant protein in the outer mitochondrial membrane. We demonstrated previously that a plasma membrane NADH-ferricyanide reductase activity becomes up-regulated upon mitochondrial perturbation, and therefore suggested that it functions as a cellular redox sensor.

VDAC1 Negatively Regulates Floral Transition in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
Voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs) are the most important proteins in mitochondria. They localize to the outer mitochondrial membrane and contribute to the metabolite transport between the mitochondria and cytoplasm, which aids plant growth regulation.
