Mitochondrial biogenesis is transcriptionally repressed in lysosomal lipid storage diseases

TL;DR: A transcriptional program is reported that represses mitochondrial biogenesis and function in lysosomal storage diseases Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) and acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASM), in patient cells and mouse tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stromal CAVIN1 controls prostate cancer microenvironment and metastasis by modulating lipid distribution and inflammatory signaling

TL;DR: The data support the concept that stromal cells contribute to prostate cancer aggressiveness by modulating lipid content and inflammation in the tumor microenvironment byModulating tumor micro environment, lipid content, and inflammatory response.
Journal ArticleDOI

DGAT1 activity synchronises with mitophagy to protect cells from metabolic rewiring by iron  depletion

TL;DR: Iron depletion is defined as a potent signal that rapidly reshapes metabolism and establishes an unexpected synergy between lipid homeostasis and mitophagy that safeguards cell and tissue integrity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deletion of the 3'-untranslated region of aspartylglucosaminidase mRNA results in a lysosomal accumulation disease.

TL;DR: A homozygous 876-base pair deletion is reported, which removes the 3'-noncoding area but leaves the coding region of the AGA mRNA intact, which suggests that the deletion interferes with the translational efficiency in vivo and provides a unique model to pursue the biological significance of untranslated regions of human mRNAs.
