The Chemistry of Neurodegeneration: Kinetic Data and Their Implications

We collected experimental kinetic rate constants for chemical processes responsible for the development and progress of neurodegeneration, focused on the enzymatic and non-enzymatic degradation of amine neurotransmitters and their reactive and neurotoxic m ...

Adenosine A(1) receptors control the metabolic recovery after hypoxia in rat hippocampal slices

João Miguel das Neves Duarte

Adenosine is a neuromodulator that protects neurons from hypoxia. This effect is attributed to the ability of adenosine A(1) receptors (A(1)R) to inhibit excitatory synaptic transmission. However, A(1)R activation also protects non-brain tissues from hypox ...

The effect of the functional interaction between PGC-1α and Parkin on mitochondrial quality control in Parkinson's disease

Lu Zheng

Although several genetic factors have been directly associated to Parkinsonâs disease (PD), no single pathway has emerged to explain the etiology of this neurodegenerative disease. To further understand the cause of Parkinsonâs disease (PD), it is ther ...

Investigation of cell death mechanisms in human lymphatic endothelial cells undergoing photodynamic therapy

Witold Waldemar Kilarski

Background: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been shown to induce ablation and functional occlusion of tumor-associated lymphatic vessels. However, direct effects of PDT on lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) have not been studied so far. The aim of this stud ...

Specification of haematopoietic stem cell fate via modulation of mitochondrial activity

Johan Auwerx, Matthias Lütolf, Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Aline Roch, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Mukul Girotra, Nicola Vannini, Gennady Nikitin, Sonja Giger

Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) differ from their committed progeny by relying primarily on anaerobic glycolysis rather than mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation for energy production. However, whether this change in the metabolic program is the cause ...

In Situ Characterization of Bak Clusters Responsible for Cell Death Using Single Molecule Localization Microscopy

Suliana Manley, Aleksandr Benke

Apoptosis plays a pivotal role in development and tissue homeostasis in multicellular organisms. Clustering of Bak proteins on the mitochondrial outer membrane is responsible for the induction of apoptosis by evoking a release of pro-apoptotic proteins fro ...

Deciphering the astrocyte-neuron metabolic cooperation in vivo

Manuel Raphael Zenger

Brain energy consumption is high and a very tightly regulated energy metabolism ensures correct performance. Neurons, the cells responsible for transmitting information via synapses, interact very closely with star shaped glial cells called astrocytes. Ast ...

Brain energy metabolism measured by 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo upon infusion of [3-13C]lactate

Rolf Gruetter, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Freya-Merret Girault

The brain uses lactate produced by glycolysis as an energy source. How lactate originated from the blood stream is used to fuel brain metabolism is not clear. The current study measures brain metabolic fluxes and estimates the amount of pyruvate that becom ...

Interplay of Packing and Flip-flop in Local Bilayer Deformation. How Phosphatidylglycerol Could Rescue Mitochondrial Function in a Cardiolipin-deficient Yeast Mutant

Anne-Florence Raphaëlle Bitbol, Mohammad Rahimi

In a previous work, we have shown that a spatially localized transmembrane pH gradient, produced by acid micro-injection near the external side of cardiolipin-containing giant unilamellar vesicles, leads to the formation of tubules that retract after the d ...

Orphan nuclear receptor TR3 acts in autophagic cell death via mitochondrial signaling pathway

Yi Zhang, Friedrich Beermann, Jie Zhang, Yuan Liu, Qian Zhang, Li Li, Ang Li, Ping Chen, Bo Zhou, Rong Wu

Autophagy is linked to cell death, yet the associated mechanisms are largely undercharacterized. We discovered that melanoma, which is generally resistant to drug-induced apoptosis, can undergo autophagic cell death with the participation of orphan nuclear ...
