Journal ArticleDOI

Parkin prevents mitochondrial swelling and cytochrome c release in mitochondria-dependent cell death

TL;DR: Results suggest that Parkin may promote the degradation of substrates localized in mitochondria and involved in the late mitochondrial phase of ceramide-mediated cell death, which may underlie the degeneration of nigral dopaminergic neurons in patients with Parkin mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids stimulate cell membrane expansion by acting on syntaxin 3

TL;DR: It is shown that syntaxin 3 (STX3), a plasma membrane protein, has an important role in the growth of neurites, and also serves as a direct target for omega-6 arachidonic acid, and the first identification of a single effector molecule for these essential nutrients.
Journal ArticleDOI

The p38 subunit of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase complex is a Parkin substrate: linking protein biosynthesis and neurodegeneration

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Parkin interacts with, ubiquitylates and promotes the degradation of p38, a key structural component of the mammalian aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase complex, opening the way for a detailed examination of its potential non-canonical role in neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alpha-synuclein, lipids and Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: It is proposed that association of alpha-synuclein with oxidized lipid metabolites can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction in turn leading to dopaminergic neuron death and thus to Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alteration of fatty-acid-metabolizing enzymes affects mitochondrial form and function in hereditary spastic paraplegia

TL;DR: It is demonstrated in human cells that the HSP pathophysiology includes alteration of mitochondrial architecture and bioenergetics with increased oxidative stress and focus attention on lipid metabolism as a critical HSP pathway with a deleterious impact on mitochondrial bioenergetic function.
