Genetic variation of the nuclear sequences of mitochondrial origin associated with retrotransposon Tv1 insertions in Drosophila species of the virilis group by B. V. Andrianov, D. A. Romanov, T. V. Gorelova

“…We applied this method to the detection and analysis of the nucleotide variability of the pseudogenes atp6 and cox3 associated with Tv1 insertions in a D. virilis cell culture and in the genomes of four Drosophila species of the virilis group: D. virilis, D. montana, D. borealis, and D. lacicola. We discovered new events of mitochondrial sequence transfer to the nucleus in the transplanted cell culture of D. virilis, and new Tv1 insertions, having emerged during the passage of this cell line were detected in the genome of the D. virilis transplanted cell culture. …”

Comparative mitogenome analysis of two ectomycorrhizal fungi (Paxillus) reveals gene rearrangement, intron dynamics, and phylogeny of basidiomycetes by Qiang Li, Yuanhang Ren, Dabing Xiang, Xiaodong Shi, Jianglin Zhao, Lianxin Peng, Gang Zhao

“…In addition, 10.64 and 36.50% of the repetitive sequences were detected in the mitogenomes of P. involutus and P. rubicundulus, respectively, which might transfer between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. Large-scale gene rearrangements and frequent intron gain/loss events were detected in 61 basidiomycete species, which revealed large variations in mitochondrial organization and size in Basidiomycota. …”

Akkermansia muciniphila and its metabolite propionic acid maintains neuronal mitochondrial division and autophagy homeostasis during Alzheimer’s disease pathologic process via GPR4... by Zifan Wang, Cai Wang, Boyu Yuan, Li Liu, Haoming Zhang, Mingqiang Zhu, Hongxia Chai, Jie Peng, Yanhua Huang, Shuo Zhou, Juxiong Liu, Liyong Wu, Wei Wang

“…Administered A. muciniphila to AD mice before disease onset showed improved cognition, mitochondrial division and mitophagy in AD mice. Conclusions Taken together, our results demonstrate that A. muciniphila and its metabolite propionate protect against AD-like pathological events in AD mouse models by targeting mitochondrial homeostasis, making them promising therapeutic candidates for the prevention and treatment of AD. …”

Effects of Curcumin on Parameters of Myocardial Oxidative Stress and of Mitochondrial Glutathione Turnover in Reoxygenation after 60 Minutes of Hypoxia in Isolated Perfused Working... by Ermita I. Ibrahim Ilyas, Busjra M. Nur, Sonny P. Laksono, Anton Bahtiar, Ari Estuningtyas, Caecilia Vitasyana, Dede Kusmana, Frans D. Suyatna, Muhammad Kamil Tadjudin, Hans-Joachim Freisleben

“…Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) was strongly increased in hypoxia and even more in reoxygenation (255% of controls). Curcumin partly counteracted this increase and attenuated GPx activity independently in hypoxia and in reoxygenation, 0.25 μM concentration to 150% and 0.5 μM concentration to 200% of normoxic activity.…”
