Mitochondrial functions and rare diseases
Publication date: Available online 3 February 2020Source: Molecular Aspects of MedicineAuthor(s): L. Dard, W. Blanchard, C. Hubert, D. Lacombe, R. RossignolAbstractMitochondria are dynamic cellular organelles responsible for a large variety of biochemical processes as energy transduction, REDOX signaling, the biosynthesis of hormones and vitamins, inflammation or cell death execution. Cell biology studies established that 1158 human genes encode proteins localized to mitochondria, as registered in MITOCARTA. Clinical studies showed that a large number of these mitochondrial proteins can be altered in expression and functio...

Integrating circulating miRNA analysis in the clinical management of lung cancer: Present or future?
Publication date: Available online 17 January 2020Source: Molecular Aspects of MedicineAuthor(s): Rita Lampignano, Vera Kloten, Thomas Krahn, Thomas SchlangeAbstractLiquid biopsy holds great promise to complement traditional analysis on cancerous tissue during clinical management of cancer: screening of patients, (early) disease diagnosis, prognosis, therapy selection as well as early response to treatment and disease monitoring. Among emerging circulating biomarkers, cell-free miRNA (cfmiRNA) may have potential in detecting lung cancer and following the course of the disease. Furthermore, several studies highlighted the p...

Circulating cell-free DNA: Translating prostate cancer genomics into clinical care
Publication date: Available online 16 January 2020Source: Molecular Aspects of MedicineAuthor(s): Delila Gasi Tandefelt, Johann de BonoAbstractOnly in the past decade tremendous advances have been made in understanding prostate cancer genomics and consequently in applying new treatment strategies. As options regarding treatments are increasing so are the challenges in selecting the right treatment option for each patient and not the least, understanding the optimal time-point and sequence of applying available treatments. Critically, without reliable methods that enable sequential monitoring of evolving genotypes in indivi...

Macrophage activation as an archetype of mitochondrial repurposing
Publication date: Available online 16 January 2020Source: Molecular Aspects of MedicineAuthor(s): Anthony E. Jones, Ajit S. DivakaruniAbstractMitochondria are metabolic organelles essential not only for energy transduction, but also a range of other functions such as biosynthesis, ion and metal homeostasis, maintenance of redox balance, and cell signaling. A hallmark example of how mitochondria can rebalance these processes to adjust cell function is observed in macrophages. These innate immune cells are responsible for a remarkable breadth of processes including pathogen elimination, antigen presentation, debris clearance...

Emerging roles of β-cell mitochondria in type-2-diabetes
Publication date: Available online 7 January 2020Source: Molecular Aspects of MedicineAuthor(s): Guy Las, Marcus F. Oliveira, Orian S. ShirihaiAbstractType-2-Diabetes (T2D) is the most common metabolic disease in the world today. It erupts as a result of peripheral insulin resistance combined with hyperinsulinemia followed by suppression of insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. Mitochondria play a central role in β-cells by sensing glucose and also by mediating the suppression of insulin secretion in T2D. Here, we will summarize the evidence accumulated for the roles of β-cells mitochondria in T2D. We will present ...
