The Soluble Adenylyl Cyclase Inhibitor LRE1 Prevents Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusi...
Teodoro, João S.; Amorim, João A.; Machado, Ivo F.; Castela, Ana C.; Steegborn, Clemens; Sinclair, David A; Rolo, Anabela P.; Palmeira, Carlos M.Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a leading cause of organ dysfunction and failure in numerous pathological and surgical settings. At the core of this issue lies mitochondrial dysfunction. Hence, strategies that prime mitochondria towards damage resilience might prove applicable in a clinical setting. A promising approach has been to induce a mitohormetic response, removing less capable organelles, a...
The mechanism of sirtuin 2-mediated exacerbation of alpha-synuclein toxicity in...
de Oliveira, Rita Machado; Vicente Miranda, Hugo; Francelle, Laetitia; Pinho, Raquel; Szegö, Éva M.; Martinho, Renato; Munari, FrancescaSirtuin genes have been associated with aging and are known to affect multiple cellular pathways. Sirtuin 2 was previously shown to modulate proteotoxicity associated with age-associated neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer and Parkinson disease (PD). However, the precise molecular mechanisms involved remain unclear. Here, we provide mechanistic insight into the interplay between sirtuin 2 and α-synucl...
