Mitotic slippage by ATP depletion and its mechanism
… checkpoints monitoring the amount of available ATP during G1 phase and G2 to M transition. However, it is still uncertain the existence of energy checkpoint during mitotic progression. In our hand, ATP depletion by the co-treatment with 2-deoxy glucose (2-DG) and sodium azide (NaN3) during …

Lkb1 Deficient Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells Are Vulnerable to Energy Stress Induced By Atp Depletion
… (8-Cl-Ado) is a compound which depletes cellular ATP. In this study, we have identified that 8-Cl-Ado is a potential therapeutic agent for targeting tumors with LKB1 deficiency. To determine the role of LKB1 and 8-Cl-Ado in cellular metabolism, we generated isogenic cell lines with either LKB1 …

An in vivo study of chromatin compaction in human cells
… the second part of the thesis, I use ATP depletion, in vivo, as a model system to induce chromatin compaction in HeLa cells. Either inhibition of transcription, or inhibition of kinases, does not prevent this increase of chromatin compaction caused by ATP depletion. The ATP dependent …

Improving the Efficacy and Expanding the Application of NQO1-Bioactivated Therapeutics
… in devastating oxidative DNA damage and energy depletion in the form of ATP, NAD(H) and NADP(H) loss specifically in tumor cells. However, ß-lap suffers from inherent limitations shared by quinone therapeutics, most notably methemoglobinemia at high doses caused by non-specific oxidation of …

Signal Processing in Bacterial Chemotaxis
<p>This study localized 1) the site of ATP utilization in the signal transduction pathway of bacterial chemotaxis and 2) the point of convergence of the methylation-independent systems of chemotaxis with the methylation-dependent system. The site of ATP utilization was localized at the CheY …

Drinking water disinfection by-products: toxicological impacts and biological mechanisms induced by individual compounds or as complex mixtures
… iii) develop a single well microplate-based ATP-protein assay as a novel toxicity metric for DBPs, iv) investigate the occurrence and in vitro mammalian cell toxicity of DBPs in European drinking water samples collected from the site where epidemiological studies on reproductive outcomes were …

Studies on the internalization and intracellular transport of horseradish peroxidase in Chinese hamster ovary cells
… μM), or substances which should deplete cellular ATP NaF/KCN (2 mM /1 mM), showed no inhibition of dissociation kinetics. A chase at 17℃ inhibited dissociation of HRP over the entire 30 minute period. This HRP binding site(s) appears unique to endocytic vesicles. A minimum of four steps in …

Chemomechanics of attached and suspended cells
… to be unaffected by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion, showing that ATP hydrolysis is not the origin of fluidity in cells during deformation. However, ATP depletion does reduce the natural variation in hysteresivity values among cells. This finding, and the finding that changes in the …

The effects of Parkinson's disease mimetics on the proteasomal and neurofilament systems in SH-SY5Y cells
Mitochondrial impairment, glutathione depletion and oxidative stress have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease, linked recently to proteasomal dysfunction. This study analyses how these factors influence the various activities of the proteasome in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma …

Toxicity mechanism of anthropogenic water contaminants: drinking water disinfection by-products (haloacetic acids) and particle associated contaminants from sealcoats (polyaromatic hydrocarbons) in lake sediments
… weaker inhibitors. MonoHAAs greatly reduced the ATP contents of the cells. Unlike monoHAAs, triHAAs increased the cellular ATP levels as compared to the negative controls. Exogenous pyruvate supplementation rescued cells from monoHAA-induced DNA damage and ATP depletion. These results confirmed …

SHORT-CHAIN FATTY ACIDS INDUCED AUTOPHAGY SERVES AS AN ADAPTIVE STRATEGY FOR RETARDING MITOCHONDRIA-MEDIATED APOPTOTIC CELL DEATH
… phosphorylation was associated with cellular ATP depletion and overproduction of reactive oxygen species due to mitochondrial dysfunction involving the induction of MPT and loss of Δψ. In this context, mitochondria biogenesis was initiated to recover cellular energy homeostasis. Importantly, …

Necrotic cell death: A novel outcome of BHPI-hyperactivation of the anticipatory unfolded protein response
… but rather through necrosis initiated by ATP depletion. This death pathway includes rapid swelling of ERa+ cancer cells and release of arachidonic acid, and is downstream of calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum (EnR). Interestingly, preliminary data suggests that necrotic …

Energy levels and anaerobic endproducts in the brains of two species of teleost fish at death in anoxic water
… brains had higher concentrations of glycogen, ATP, CrP, and glucose than control trout. With anoxia, bullheads showed a significant decrease in ATP, CrP, and glycogen with no change noted for glucose, ketone bodies (betaâ hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate), or alternative anaerobic endproducts …

Structural characterisation of V-ATPases by electron microscopy
Vacuolar H+-translocating ATPases (V-ATPases) are fundamentally important proteins. They pump protons into the interior of most cellular endomembrane compartments at the expense of ATP. V-ATPases are comprised of a membrane-integrated proton-translocating part (V0) and a soluble catalytic part …

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species production in cardiomyoblasts during hypoxia and reoxygenation
… In conclusion, mitochondrial O2-•, but, not ATP depletion is the major cause of apoptotic and necrotic cell death in cardiomyoblasts under 2% O2, 4h hypoxia, whereas apoptotic cell death under 10% O2, 4h, is due to NOS-dependent •NO. The management of ROS/RNS rather than ATP is required for …
