Membrane Remodeling Induced by the Dynamin-Related Protein Drp1 Stimulates Bax Oligomerization

TL;DR: It is shown that Drp1 stimulates tBid-induced Bax oligomerization and cytochrome c release by promoting tethering and hemifusion of membranes in vitro by exploiting arginine 247 and the presence of cardiolipin in membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipidic pore formation by the concerted action of proapoptotic BAX and tBID

TL;DR: A novel model is proposed in which tBID assists BAX not only viaprotein-protein but also via protein-lipid interactions to form lipidic pore-type non-bilayer structures in the outer mitochondrial membrane through which intermembrane prodeath molecules exit mitochondria during apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial Cholesterol Contributes to Chemotherapy Resistance in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: Mitochondria from rat or human hepatocellular carcinoma (HC) cells (HCC) or primary tumors from patients with HC exhibit increased mitochondrial cholesterol levels, which contributes to chemotherapy resistance by increasing membrane order.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specific interaction with cardiolipin triggers functional activation of Dynamin-Related Protein 1.

TL;DR: It is found that Drp1 can interact with pure lipid bilayers enriched in the mitochondrion-specific phospholipid cardiolipin (CL), and it is shown that a four lysine module located within the B insert ofDrp1 interacts preferentially with CL over other anionic lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of Mitochondrial Glutathione-Dependent Hepatocellular Susceptibility to TNF Despite NF-κB Activation

TL;DR: MOM-localized oligomeric Bax is not sufficient for TNF-induced MOM permeabilization and cell death requiring mGSH-controlled ASMase-mediated mitochondrial membrane remodeling by oxidized cardiolipin generation.
