Lipid biosynthesis enzyme Agpat5 in AgRP-neurons is required for insulin-induced hypoglycemia sensing and glucagon secretion

The counterregulatory response to hypoglycemia that restores normal blood glucose levels is an essential physiological function. It is initiated, in large part, by incompletely characterized brain hypoglycemia sensing neurons that trigger the secretion of ...

Mitochondrial Creatine Kinase Attenuates Pathologic Remodeling in Heart Failure

Yi Zhang, Annina Stuber, Ashish Gupta

BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in cardiac energy metabolism occur in heart failure (HF) and contribute to contractile dysfunction, but their role, if any, in HF-related pathologic remodeling is much less established. CK (creatine kinase), the primary muscle ene ...

Structures of ABCG2 under turnover conditions reveal a key step in the drug transport mechanism

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni

ABCG2 is a multidrug transporter that affects drug pharmacokinetics and contributes to multidrug resistance of cancer cells. In previously reported structures, the reaction cycle was halted by the absence of substrates or ATP, mutation of catalytic residue ...

Gαi1 inhibition mechanism of ATP-bound adenylyl cyclase type 5

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen, Daniele Narzi

Conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to the second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is an essential reaction mechanism that takes place in eukaryotes, triggering a variety of signal transduction pathways. ATP conversion is catalyzed by ...

Mitochondrial cristae modeled as an out-of-equilibrium membrane driven by a proton field

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol

As the places where most of the fuel of the cell, namely, ATP, is synthesized, mitochondria are crucial organelles in eukaryotic cells. The shape of the invaginations of the mitochondria inner membrane, known as a crista, has been identified as a signature ...

Brain NAD Is Associated With ATP Energy Production and Membrane Phospholipid Turnover in Humans

Rolf Gruetter, Lijing Xin, Özlem Ipek, Maya Shevlyakova

The brain requires a large amount of energy, mostly derived from the metabolism of glucose, which decreases substantially with age and neurological diseases. While mounting evidence in model organisms illustrates the central role of brain nicotinamide aden ...

Therapeutic potential of glutathione-enhancers in stress-related psychopathologies

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Sarah Catherine Sonnay, Fiona Hollis, Ioannis Zalachoras, Pascal Steiner, Eva Ramos Fernandez, Laia Morato Fornaguera

The mammalian brain has high energy demands, which may become higher in response to environmental challenges such as psychogenic stress exposure. Therefore, efficient neutralization of reactive oxygen species that are produced as a by-product of ATP synthe ...

High-throughput and adaptive super-resolution fluorescence microscopy of organelles

Dora Mahecic

Fluorescence super-resolution microscopy has allowed unprecedented insight into the workings of biological systems below the diffraction limit of light. Over the past decade, it has overcome several challenges to deliver 3D, multi-color and faster imaging ...

Astrocytic release of ATP through type 2 inositol 1,4,5‐trisphosphate receptor calcium signaling and social dominance behavior in mice

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut, Fiona Hollis, Eva Ramos Fernandez

Brain mitochondrial function is critical for numerous neuronal processes. We recently identified a link between brain energy and social dominance, where higher levels of mitochondrial function resulted in increased social competitive ability. The underlyin ...

Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Transactivator Tax Exploits the XPB Subunit of TFIIH during Viral Transcription

Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) Tax oncoprotein is required for viral gene expression. Tax transactivates the viral promoter by recruiting specific transcription factors but also by interfering with general transcription factors involved in ...
