Abstract Quantitative understanding of mitochondrial heterogeneity is necessary for elucidating the precise role these multifaceted organelles in tumor cell development. We demonstrate an early mechanistic mitochondria initiating neoplasticity by performing quantitative analyses structure-function single components coupled with transcriptomics. that large Hyperfused-Mitochondrial-Networks (HMNs) keratinocytes promptly get converted to heterogenous Small-Mitochondrial-Networks (SMNs) as stem enriching dose model carcinogen, TCDD, depolarizes mitochondria. This happens physical reorganization HMN nodes and edges, which enriches redox tuned SMNs distinct network complexity. leads establishment transcriptomic interaction between upregulated relevant mtDNA genes lineage specific stemness gene, KRT15, prior cycle exit.

Abstract Bone organoids, in vitro models mimicking native bone structure and function, rely on 3D stem cell culture for self‐organization, differentiation, ECM secretion, biomineralization, ultimately forming mineralized collagen hierarchies. However, their development is often limited by the lack of suitable matrices with optimal mechanical properties sustained growth differentiation. To address this, a dynamic DNA/Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel (CGDE) developed to recapitulate key biochemical features ECM, providing supportive microenvironment organoid formation. This dual‐network engineered through hydrogen bonding between DNA GelMA, combined GelMA network crosslinking, resulting appropriate strength enhanced viscoelasticity. During 21‐day culture, CGDE facilitates cellular migration promoting woven (WBO) formation via intramembranous ossification. These WBOs exhibit spatiotemporal architectures supporting mineralization tissue remodeling. In vivo studies demonstrate that CGDE‐derived self‐adaptive properties, enabling rapid osseointegration within 4 weeks. work highlights as robust scalable platform development, offering new insights into biology innovative strategies regeneration.

Abstract Osteoporosis represents a prevalent and debilitating comorbidity in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is characterized by suppressed osteoblast function disrupted bone microarchitecture. In this study, we utilized male C57BL/6 J mice to investigate the role of SIRT3 T2DM. Decreased expression impaired mitochondrial quality control mechanism are observed both vitro vivo models Mechanistically, suppression results hyperacetylation FOXO3, hindering activation PINK1/PRKN mediated mitophagy pathway resulting accumulation dysfunctional mitochondria. Genetical overexpression or pharmacological restores deacetylation status thus facilitating ameliorating osteogenic impairment Collectively, our findings highlight fundamental regulatory control, crucial for maintaining homeostasis These insights not only enhance understanding molecular mechanisms underlying diabetic osteoporosis but also identify as promising therapeutic target osteoporosis.

Choline is an essential nutrient for the biosynthesis of phospholipids, neurotransmitters, and one-carbon metabolism with a critical step being its import into mitochondria. However, underlying mechanisms biological significance remain poorly understood. Here, we report that SLC25A48, previously uncharacterized mitochondrial inner-membrane carrier protein, controls choline transport synthesis choline-derived methyl donors. We found SLC25A48 was required brown fat thermogenesis, respiration, membrane integrity. uptake matrix via facilitated betaine purine nucleotides, whereas loss resulted in increased production reactive oxygen species imbalanced lipids. Notably, human cells carrying single nucleotide polymorphism on gene cancer lacking exhibited decreased import, oxidative stress, impaired cell proliferation.

Mitochondria are a diverse family of organelles that specialize to accomplish complimentary functions. All mitochondria share general features, but not all created equal.Here we develop quantitative pipeline define the degree molecular specialization among different mitochondrial phenotypes - or mitotypes. By distilling hundreds validated genes/proteins into 149 biologically interpretable MitoPathway scores (MitoCarta 3.0) simple mitotyping allows investigators quantify and interpret diversity plasticity from transcriptomics data across variety natural experimental contexts. We show mouse human multi-organ mitotypes segregate along two main axes specialization, contrasting anabolic (liver) catabolic (brain) tissues. In brain, cell-type-specific enrichment at single cell level. cultured primary fibroblasts exhibiting robust time-dependent treatment-induced metabolic plasticity, demonstrate how mitotype given type recalibrates i) over time in parallel with hallmarks aging, ii) response genetic, pharmacological, perturbations.
