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 ...

VDAC1 Upregulation Induces Hyperexcitability of Nociceptive Sensory Neurons Via Enhanced Mitochondrial Atp Efflux in Neuropathic Pain. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
The mechanism diagram of VDAC1 mediating neuronal excitability and neuropathic pain. Briefly, VDAC1 is expressed in DRG neurons and is upregulated following CCI‐induced neuropathic pain. This upregulation enhances ATP transport from mitochondria to the cytoplasm in sensory neurons, leading to increased neuronal excitability and pain behavior.

Porin 1 Modulates Autophagy in Yeast

open access: yesCells, 2021
Autophagy is a cellular recycling program which efficiently reduces the cellular burden of ageing. Autophagy is characterised by nucleation of isolation membranes, which grow in size and further expand to form autophagosomes, engulfing cellular material ...

VDAC: Voltage Dependant Anion Channel

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2011
VDAC (Voltage Dependent Anion Channel) is a channel protein located on the outer mitochondrial membrane. It regulates mitochondria functions and cell respiration through the exchange of molecules between the cytoplasm and the organelle, such as ADP, ATP, anions, cations, and other small, hydrophilic molecules.

In Silico Exploration of Alternative Conformational States of VDAC

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
VDAC (Voltage-Dependent Anion-selective Channel) is the primary metabolite pore in the mitochondrial outer membrane (OM). Atomic structures of VDAC, consistent with its physiological “open” state, are β-barrels formed by 19 transmembrane (TM) β-strands ...

Co-Incubation of Human Spermatozoa with Anti-VDAC Antibody Reduced Sperm Motility

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2014
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.

Energy Metabolic Plasticity of Colorectal Cancer Cells as a Determinant of Tumor Growth and Metastasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Metabolic plasticity is the ability of the cell to adjust its metabolism to changes in environmental conditions. Increased metabolic plasticity is a defining characteristic of cancer cells, which gives them the advantage of survival and a higher ...

Erastin Disrupts Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore (mPTP) and Induces Apoptotic Death of Colorectal Cancer Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
We here evaluated the potential anti-colorectal cancer activity by erastin, a voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC)-binding compound. Our in vitro studies showed that erastin exerted potent cytotoxic effects against multiple human colorectal cancer cell

Cell-free electrophysiology of human VDACs incorporated into nanodiscs: An improved method

open access: yesBiophysical Reports, 2021
Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC) is one of the main proteins of the outer mitochondrial membrane of all eukaryotes, where it forms aqueous, voltage-sensitive, and ion-selective channels.
