Changes in cardiac and hepatic energetic metabolism in gerbils infected by Listeria monocytogenes
Antonise M. Jaguezeski,Carine F. Souza,Gessica Perin,Roger R. Gebert,Kelen Regina Ascoli Baldi,Teane M. A. Gomes,Matheus D. Baldissera,Cinthia Melazzo de Andrade,Lenita M. Stefani,Aleksandro Schafer da Silva,Aleksandro Schafer da Silva +10 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that subclinical listeriosis alters hepatic and cardiac energy metabolism, possibly related to decreased activity of phosphotransferases and ATPase, and subsequent antioxidant responses are not sufficient to correct alterations in lipid peroxidation and bioenergetics, possibly leading to important cellular pathological mechanisms.

Unique Features of the Tissue Structure in the Naked Mole Rat (Heterocephalus glaber): Hypertrophy of the Endoplasmic Reticulum and Spatial Mitochondrial Rearrangements in Hepatocytes
V. B. Vays,I. M. Vangeli,Chupalav M. Eldarov,Vasily A. Popkov,Susanne Holtze,Thomas Hildebrandt,O. A. Averina,Dmitry B. Zorov,Lora E. Bakeeva +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the noted structural and spatial features of ER and mitochondria in H. glaber reflect adaptive rearrangements aimed at greater tolerance of the cellular system to challenges, primarily hypoxia and endogenous and exogenous toxins.
Role of mitochondria in head and neck cancer
Humberto De Vitto,Antonio Galina +1 more
- 01 Jul 2013
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on the metabolism of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), trying to debate the role of mitochondria in the process of malignant cell transformation, and how mitochondria can be considered a new candidate to target and treat cancer, including HNSCC therapeutically.

Biochemistry and molecular cell biology of diabetic complications
TL;DR: This integrating paradigm provides a new conceptual framework for future research and drug discovery in diabetes-specific microvascular disease and seems to reflect a single hyperglycaemia-induced process of overproduction of superoxide by the mitochondrial electron-transport chain.

TL;DR: This work shows that hyperglycaemia increases the production of reactive oxygen species inside cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells and is prevented by an inhibitor of electron transport chain complex II, by an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation, by uncoupling protein-1 and by manganese superoxide dismutase.
