Genetic and epigenetic influence on oxidative phosphorylation, islet function and type 2 diabetes in humans
… ATP production by oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is known to play a critical regulatory role in glucose stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS). The overall aim of this thesis was to explore the influence of genetic and epigenetic variation on OXPHOS, islet function and T2D in humans. In study …

PRUNE_1 INVOLMENT IN TNBC ENHANCING CANCER METABOLISM
… high glycolytic and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) activity, contributing to poor prognosis and metastasis. The ATP5A1 protein, a key component of mitochondrial ATP synthase, plays a central role in energy metabolism and is linked to cancer-specific metabolic alterations, including the …

Disassembly of electron transport chain complexes drives macrophage TLR responses by reprogramming metabolism and translation
Metabolic switch from oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) to glycolysis is a key feature of inflammatory response in macrophages, but how this switch occurs in response to inflammatory signals and how it precisely contributes to macrophage function is still obscure. Here we show that stimulation of …

Integrated Analysis of Molecular and Clinical Features in Melanoma Patients with Brain Metastases
… by decreased oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and increased immune infiltration signatures compared to MBMs from patients with concurrent ECMs. To further characterize the role of OXPHOS in MBM progression, intra-patient variation in OXPHOS gene expression was studied using bulk RNA-seq …

Significance of DNA base excision repair in the maintenance of mitochondrial function in Saccharomyces cerevisiae /
… of ATP production via oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Accumulation of mtDNA mutations have been linked to the development of respiratory dysfunction, apoptosis, and aging. Base excision repair (BER) is the major and the only certain repair pathway existing in mitochondria that is in …

INTERPLAY BETWEEN MDM2 AND TFAM REGULATES OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION IN DRUG-RESISTANT ONCOGENE-ADDICTED CANCERS
… of resistance. There is mounting evidence of OXPHOS dependency as a mechanism of TKI resistance, but the cause of this metabolic switch remains elusive. Here, we report a novel mechanism involving mitochondria-bound MDM2 (mtMDM2) in driving OXPHOS regulation in TKI-resistant cancers through an …

Pyrimidine nucleotide carrier 1 in mitochondrial homeostasis and cancer
… cells, and restore oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) activity to these cells. These data suggest that the mitochondrial dysfunction present in these cells is partially due to their low PNC1 expression. Conversely, we observed that suppression of PNC1 in MCF-7 cells suppresses OXPHOS. …

Effects of Trimethylamine N-Oxide on Mouse Embryonic Stem Cell Properties
… upon inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation (OxPHOS). It also significantly increased the rate of OxPHOS, maximal respiratory capacity, and respiratory reserve. These findings indicate that TMAO induced a metabolic switch of mESCs from high glycolytic activity to greater OxPHOS activity to …

Energy metabolism in Arbidopsis thaliana: TCA cycle evolution, amino acids degradation and alternative pathways
… of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system and its alternatives pathways under energy limitation remains elusive. Thus, this thesis, which is focused on the function of respiration within the context of the role of the TCA cycle as well as the function of alternative electron …

Identification and Characterization of Mitochondrial DNA Variants in Alzheimer's Disease
… establish altered oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and ATP synthesis in AD tissue. ATP demand is most prevalent in the brain; damage to OXPHOS could severely impair brain metabolism, thereby leading to a decline in cognitive function. Four out of five complexes in the OXPHOS pathway are …

An investigation into the novel effects of melatonin treatment on differentiated C2C12 myotubes in the absence and presence of pathology
… attenuates mitochondrial oxygen consumption and OXPHOS in myotubes by limiting oxygen wastage via an oxygen-sparing action. Moreover, in the pre and curative setting, MEL upregulated mitochondrial fusion. General Methods: For papers 1-3, we have employed an in vitro approach, where differentiated …

Investigating how mitophagy is regulated by the metabolic context
… dependencies between either a glycolytic or OXPHOS metabolic status. I implemented this metabolic modulation to address the aim in this thesis of identifying new factors regulating mitophagy by the metabolic context, which may provide new insights on the regulation of basal mitophagy in vivo. …

Fbxw7 Triggers Degradation Of Kmt2d To Favor Growth Of Mature B-Type Malignant Cells
… and genes related to oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and multiple myeloma (MM) cells. Consistently, loss of FBXW7 inhibits DLBCL cell growth and further sensitizes these cells to OXPHOS inhibition. Our findings elucidate a novel mechanism of regulation …
