Journal ArticleDOI
Tumor metabolism regulating chemosensitivity in ovarian cancer
Chae Young Han,David A. Patten,Richard B. Richardson,Mary-Ellen Harper,Benjamin K. Tsang,Benjamin K. Tsang +5 more
TL;DR: The role of key glycolytic enzymes and other metabolic synthesis pathways in the progression of cancer and chemoresistance in OVCA is summarized and mitochondrial dynamics are addressed regarding their roles in controlling metabolism and apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Altered mitochondrial fusion drives defensive glutathione synthesis in cells able to switch to glycolytic ATP production.
David A. Patten,Shawn McGuirk,Ujval Anilkumar,Ghadi Antoun,Karan Gandhi,Gaganvir Parmar,Mohamed Ariff Iqbal,Jacob Wong,Richard B. Richardson,Julie St-Pierre,Ruth S. Slack,Mary-Ellen Harper +11 more
TL;DR: It is revealed that mouse embryonic fibroblasts lacking the mitochondrial fusion machinery display elevated levels of GSH, which limits oxidative damage, and it is suggested that cysteine availability is not limiting for GSH synthesis in conditions of mitochondrial fragmentation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial adaptation in human mesenchymal stem cells following ionizing radiation.
David A. Patten,David A. Patten,Mathieu Ouellet,David S. Allan,Marc Germain,Stephen Baird,Mary-Ellen Harper,Richard B. Richardson,Richard B. Richardson +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated in fibroblasts that mitochondrial remodeling is required for the adaptation of cells to IR, and mitochondrial effects may have broader implications in the field of stress adaptation and cell death in cancer and other disease states.
