We read with interest the paper by Ray and colleagues 1 reporting that elevated cardiolipin levels during pulmonary infection impair lung and lung surfactant function. They suggest that Atp8B1 is a ...
The heart needs energy to pump blood. So, energy production defects in heart muscles result in a variety of cardiac diseases. Texas A&M AgriLife scientists have now discovered a new link between ...
Barth syndrome is a rare, X‐linked genetic disorder predominantly caused by mutations in the TAZ gene, which encodes the enzyme tafazzin. Tafazzin is responsible for the remodelling of cardiolipin, a ...
A groundbreaking study published in Current Pharmaceutical Analysis has uncovered a potential therapeutic target for bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy (BIPN), a common and debilitating side ...
The energy metabolism of the body's so-called brown fat cells is controlled by the fat molecule cardiolipin, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have discovered in a new study. The research ...
To function properly, the heart needs energy from cells' powerhouses, the mitochondria. In turn, mitochondria boost their energy output when calcium levels rise around them, a signal that more energy ...
The heart needs the energy to pump blood. So, energy production defects in heart muscles result in a variety of cardiac diseases. In the light of the following information, scientists have now ...
