Mitochondrial H2O2 emission and cellular redox state link excess fat intake to insulin resistance in both rodents and humans

TL;DR: It is shown that in skeletal muscle of both rodents and humans, a diet high in fat increases the H(2)O(2)-emitting potential of mitochondria, shifts the cellular redox environment to a more oxidized state, and decreases the redox-buffering capacity in the absence of any change in mitochondrial respiratory function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell-permeable Peptide Antioxidants Targeted to Inner Mitochondrial Membrane inhibit Mitochondrial Swelling, Oxidative Cell Death, and Reperfusion Injury

TL;DR: Overproduction of ROS underlies the cellular toxicity of tBHP and 3NP, and ROS mediate cytochrome c release via MPT, and these IMM-targeted antioxidants may be very beneficial in the treatment of aging and diseases associated with oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

First‐in‐class cardiolipin‐protective compound as a therapeutic agent to restore mitochondrial bioenergetics

TL;DR: SS‐31 represents a new class of compounds that can recharge the cellular powerhouse and restore bioenergetics and provides an update of its clinical development programme.
Journal ArticleDOI

A role for heterodimerization of μ and δ opiate receptors in enhancing morphine analgesia

TL;DR: It is shown that μ-δ interacting complexes exist in live cells and native membranes and that the occupancy of δ receptors is sufficient to enhance μ opioid receptor binding and signaling activity, and that δ receptor antagonists enhance morphine-mediated intrathecal analgesia.
