Increased intracellular iron spurs mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration to satisfy high-energy demand during osteoclast differentiation bone-resorbing activities. Transferrin receptor 1 (Tfr1) mediates cellular uptake through endocytosis of iron-loaded transferrin, its expression increases differentiation.

Abstract As key organelles involved in cellular metabolism, mitochondria frequently undergo adaptive changes morphology, components and functions response to various environmental stresses demands. Previous studies of research have gradually evolved, from focusing on morphological change analysis systematic multiomics, thereby revealing the mitochondrial variation between cells or within population a single cell. The phenomenon features is defined as heterogeneity. Moreover, heterogeneity has been reported influence variety physiological processes, including tissue homeostasis, repair, immunoregulation, tumor progression. Here, we comprehensively review different tissues under pathological states, involving variant DNA, RNA, protein lipid components.

Doxorubicin (DOX) is among the most widely employed antitumor agents, although its clinical applications have been largely hindered by severe cardiotoxicity. Earlier studies described an essential role of mitochondrial injury in pathogenesis DOX cardiomyopathy. PHB2 (Prohibitin 2) perceived as regulator for dynamics and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) involvement cardiomyopathy remains elusive.To decipher possible cardiomyopathy, tamoxifen-induced cardiac-specific conditional knockout mice were generated subjected to challenge. Cardiac function profiles examined. Screening downstream mediators was performed using proteomic profiling bioinformatic analysis, further verified co-immunoprecipitation pulldown assays.Our data revealed significantly downregulated expression DOX-challenged mouse hearts.

Here, we aimed leverage natural genetic correlation structure gene expression both within and across understand how interacts with metabolic tissues. Specifically, performed a survey correlations focused on myokine regulation, cell composition, cross-tissue signaling, interactions sex humans. While levels majority proportions skeletal showed little relative differences between males females, nearly all significant enrichments operated sex-specific or hormone-dependent fashion; particular, estradiol. These sex- hormone-specific effects were consistent key tissues: liver, pancreas, hypothalamus, intestine, heart, visceral, subcutaneous adipose tissue. To characterize the estradiol receptor expression, generated male female mice which lack estrogen α specifically (MERKO) integrated human data. analyses highlighted potential mechanisms sex-dependent conserved species, such as myostatin enriched divergent substrate utilization pathways sexes.
