Hyperammonaemia-induced skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction results in cataplerosis and oxidative stress.

KEY POINTS: Hyperammonaemia occurs in hepatic, cardiac and pulmonary diseases with increased muscle concentration of ammonia. We found that ammonia results in reduced skeletal muscle mitochondrial respiration, electron transport chain complex I…

Differential protein acetylation assists import of excess SOD2 into mitochondria and mediates SOD2 aggregation associated with cardiac hypertrophy in the murine

SOD2 is the primary antioxidant enzyme neutralizing (*)O2(-) in mitochondria. Cardiac-specific SOD2 overexpression (SOD2-tg) induces supernormal function and cardiac hypertrophy in the mouse heart. However, the reductive stress imposed by SOD2…

Identification of small molecules that bind to the mitochondrial protein mitoNEET.

MitoNEET (CISD1) is a 2Fe-2S iron-sulfur cluster protein belonging to the zinc-finger protein family. Recently mitoNEET has been shown to be a major role player in the mitochondrial function associated with metabolic type diseases such as obesity and…

Impairment of pH gradient and membrane potential mediates redox dysfunction in the mitochondria of the post-ischemic heart.

The mitochondrial electrochemical gradient (Deltap), which comprises the pH gradient (DeltapH) and the membrane potential (DeltaPsi), is crucial in controlling energy transduction. During myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (IR), mitochondrial…

Persistence of intact retinal ganglion cell terminals after axonal transport loss in the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma.

Axonal transport defects are an early pathology occurring within the retinofugal projection of the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma. Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons and terminals are detectable after transport is affected, yet little is known about…

Design and use of peptide-based antibodies decreasing superoxide production by mitochondrial complex I and complex II.

Mitochondria are the major source of reactive oxygen species. Both complex I and complex II mediate O2*- production in mitochondria and host reactive protein thiols. To explore the functions of the specific domains involved in the redox modifications…
