Article Abstract
COVID-19 has been proposed to be an endothelial disease, as endothelial damage and oxidative stress contribute to its systemic inflammatory and thrombotic events. Polyphenols, natural antioxidant compounds appear as promising agents to prevent and treat COVID-19. Polyphenols bind and inhibit the F F -ATP synthase rotary catalysis. An early target of polyphenols may be the ectopic F F -ATP synthase expressed on the endothelial plasma membrane. Among the pleiotropic beneficial action of polyphenols in COVID-19, modulation of the ecto-F F -ATP synthase, lowering the oxidative stress produced by the electron transfer chain coupled to it, would not be negligible.

Incubation temperature shapes growth and mitochondrial metabolism across embryonic development in Japanese quail.

Incubation temperature affects both growth and energy metabolism in birds after hatching. Changes in cellular mechanisms, including mitochondrial function, are a likely but unexplored explanation for these effects. To test whether temperature-dependent changes to mitochondria may link embryonic development to the post-natal phenotype, we incubated Japanese quail eggs at constant low (36.

Background: After spinal cord injury (SCI), pro-inflammatory microglia accumulate and impede axonal regeneration. We explored whether secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (Sparc) restrains microglial inflammation and fosters neurite outgrowth.
Methods: Mouse microglial BV2 cells were polarized to a pro-inflammatory phenotype with lipopolysaccharides (LPSs).

The insect midgut peritrophic membrane (PM) plays important roles in insect-microbe interactions. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) and its proteinaceous toxins are widely used for insect control. To understand the role of PM in insects against Bt toxins, this study selected Grapholita molesta Busck (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), a worldwide pest infesting fruit trees, as the research subject.

Most complex V subunits are nuclear encoded and so far, were not found in association with recognized Mendelian disorders. ATP5PO is a candidate gene for complex V mitochondrial disease. It encodes the oligomycin sensitivity-conferring protein (OSCP), an essential component of the "stalk" region that links the F1 and F0 domains of the ATP synthase complex.

This mechanism imposes enormous and prolonged energetic demands at synapses, yet it is unclear how these needs are met in a sustained manner. Mitochondria serve as a local energy supply for dendritic spines, providing instant and sustained energy during synaptic plasticity.
