Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Mitochondrial Function in Airway Smooth Muscle.

TL;DR: The current understanding of the link between inflammation-induced ER stress and mitochondrial function and the role played in the pathophysiology of inflammatory airway diseases is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Cytomegalovirus Infection Upregulates the Mitochondrial Transcription and Translation Machineries

TL;DR: This work found that the mitochondrial transcription and translation systems are induced early during the viral replication cycle, and proteins involved in biogenesis of the mitochondrial ribosome were highly upregulated by HCMV infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrastructural evidence for impaired mitochondrial fission in the aged rhesus monkey dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.

TL;DR: Old rhesus monkeys may be particularly helpful in exploring the age-related changes that render higher cortical circuits so vulnerable to degeneration, and the 'mitochondria-on-a-string' phenotype may reflect malfunction in mitochondrial dynamics, whereby fission is initiated, but the process is incomplete due to malfunction of subsequent step(s).
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of mitochondrial toxicity of the kinase inhibitors ponatinib, regorafenib and sorafenib in human hepatic HepG2 cells.

TL;DR: In conclusion, the kinase inhibitors ponatinib, regorafenib, and sorafenIB impaired the function of the respiratory chain, which was associated with increased ROS production and a drop in the mitochondrial membrane potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Up- and Downregulation of Metabolites and Mitochondrial Content on pH and Color of the Longissimus Muscle from Normal-pH and Dark-Cutting Beef.

TL;DR: The current results demonstrate that the more tricarboxylic metabolites and mitochondrial content in dark-cutting beef impact muscle-pH and color.

Accuracy of clinical diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease: a clinico-pathological study of 100 cases.

TL;DR: The pathological findings in 100 patients diagnosed prospectively by a group of consultant neurologists as having idiopathic Parkinson's disease are reported, and these observations call into question current concepts of Parkinson's Disease as a single distinct morbid entity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases

TL;DR: Treatments targeting basic mitochondrial processes, such as energy metabolism or free-radical generation, or specific interactions of disease-related proteins with mitochondria hold great promise in ageing-related neurodegenerative diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parkin is recruited selectively to impaired mitochondria and promotes their autophagy

TL;DR: It is shown that Parkin is selectively recruited to dysfunctional mitochondria with low membrane potential in mammalian cells and this recruitment promotes autophagy of damaged mitochondria and implicate a failure to eliminate dysfunctional mitochondira in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

PINK1 is selectively stabilized on impaired mitochondria to activate Parkin.

TL;DR: The authors suggest that PINK1 and Parkin form a pathway that senses damaged mitochondria and selectively targets them for degradation.
