'''Background''': Tumor cells are characte … '''Background''': Tumor cells are characterized by accelerated growth usually accompanied by up-regulated pathways that ultimately increase the rate of ATP production. These cells can suffer metabolic reprogramming, resulting in distinct bioenergetic phenotypes, generally enhancing glycolysis channeled to lactate production. In the present work we showed metabolic reprogramming by means of inhibitors of histone deacetylase (HDACis), sodium butyrate and trichostatin. This treatment was able to shift energy metabolism by activating mitochondrial systems such as the respiratory chain and oxidative phosphorylation that were largely repressed in the untreated controls.'''Methodology/Principal Findings''': Various cellular and biochemical parameters were evaluated in lung cancer H460 cells treated with the histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), sodium butyrate (NaB) and trichostatin A (TSA). NaB and TSA reduced glycolytic flux, assayed by lactate release by H460 cells in a concentration dependent manner. NaB inhibited the expression of glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT 1), but substantially increased mitochondria bound hexokinase (HK) activity. NaB induced increase in HK activity was associated to isoform HK I and was accompanied by 1.5 fold increase in HK I mRNA expression and cognate protein biosynthesis. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and pyruvate kinase (PYK) activities were unchanged by HDACis suggesting that the increase in the HK activity was not coupled to glycolytic flux. High resolution respirometry of H460 cells revealed NaB-dependent increased rates of oxygen consumption coupled to ATP synthesis. Metabolomic analysis showed thatNaB altered the glycolytic metabolite profile of intact H460 cells. Concomitantly we detected an activation of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). The high O2 consumption in NaB-treated cells was shown to be unrelated to mitochondrial biogenesis since citrate synthase (CS) activity and the amount of mitochondrial DNA remained unchanged.'''Conclusion''': NaB and TSA induced an increase in mitochondrial function and oxidative metabolism in H460 lung tumor cells concomitant with a less proliferative cellular phenotype.h a less proliferative cellular phenotype. +
'''Background'''—Opening of the mitochondr … '''Background'''—Opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) is a crucial event in lethal reperfusion injury. Phosphorylation (inhibition) of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β) has been involved in cardioprotection. We investigated whether phosphorylated GSK3β may protect the heart via the inhibition of mPTP opening during postconditioning.'''Methods and Results'''—Wild-type and transgenic GSK3β-S9A mice (the cardiac GSK3β activity of which cannot be inactivated) underwent 60 minutes of ischemia and 24 hours of reperfusion. At reperfusion, wild-type and GSK3β-S9A mice received no intervention (control), postconditioning (3 cycles of 1 minute ischemia and 1 minute of reperfusion), the mPTP inhibitor cyclosporine A (CsA; 10 mg/kg IV), or the GSK3β inhibitor SB216763 (SB21; 70 µg/kg IV). Infarct size was assessed by triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. The resistance of the mPTP to opening after Ca2+ loading was assessed by spectrofluorometry on mitochondria isolated from the area at risk. In wild-type mice, infarct size was significantly reduced by postconditioning, CsA, and SB21, averaging 39±2%, 35±5%, and 37±4%, respectively, versus 58±5% of the area at risk in control mice (P<0.05). In GSK3β-S9A mice, only CsA, but not postconditioning or SB21, reduced infarct size. Postconditioning, CsA, and SB21 all improved the resistance of the mPTP in wild-type mice, but only CsA did so in GSK3β-S9A mice.'''Conclusion'''—These results suggest that S9-phosphorylation of GSK3β is required for postconditioning and likely acts by inhibiting the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore.pening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. +
'''Background:''' Appropriate control of m … '''Background:''' Appropriate control of mitochondrial function, morphology and biogenesis are crucial determinants of the general health of eukaryotic cells. It is therefore imperative that we understand the mechanisms that coordinatemitochondrial function with environmental signaling systems. The regulation of yeast mitochondrial function in response to nutritional change can be modulated by PKA activity. Unregulated PKA activity can lead to the production of mitochondria that are prone to the production of ROS, and an apoptotic form of cell death.'''Results:''' We present evidence that mitochondria are sensitive to the level of cAMP/PKA signaling and can respond by modulating levels of respiratory activity or committing to self execution. The inappropriate activation of one ofthe yeast PKA catalytic subunits, Tpk3p, is sufficient to commit cells to an apoptotic death through transcriptional changes that promote the production of dysfunctional, ROS producing mitochondria. Our data implies that cAMP/PKA regulation of mitochondrial function that promotes apoptosis engages the function of multiple transcription factors, including HAP4, SOK2 and SCO1.'''Conclusions:''' We propose that in yeast, as is the case in mammalian cells, mitochondrial function and biogenesis are controlled in response to environmental change by the concerted regulation of multiple transcription factors. The visualization of cAMP/TPK3 induced cell death within yeast colonies supports a model that PKA regulation plays a physiological role in coordinating respiratory function and cell death with nutritional status in budding yeast. with nutritional status in budding yeast. +

Changes of ΔΨm induced by inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation characterizerespective contributions of mitochondria and glycolysis to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis.'''Methods:''' ΔΨm in BSC-40 and HeLa G cell lines was determined by flow cytometry and spectrofluorometry. Its changes induced by specific mitochondrial inhibitors were evaluated using 3,3 ΔΨ-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide(DiOC6(3)), tetramethylrhodamine ethyl ester, and Mito-Tracker Red. Mitochondrial function was further characterized by oxygen consumption.'''Results:''' Inhibition of respiration by antimycin A or uncouplingof mitochondria by FCCP decreased ΔΨm in both cell lines. Inhibition of ATP production by oligomycin or atractyloside induced a moderate decrease of ΔΨmin HeLa G cells and an increase of ΔΨm in BSC-40 cells. Statistically significant differences in ΔΨm between the two cell lines were found with both flow cytometry and spectrofluorometry. Respirometry showed higher basaland FCCP-stimulated respiration in BSC-40 cells.'''Conclusion:''' Changes of ΔΨm and oxygen consumption showed that BSC-40 cells are more sensitive than HeLa G cells to inhibitors of mitochondrial function, suggesting that BSC-40 cells are more dependent than HeLa G cells onaerobic ATP production. Determination of ΔΨm changes by flow cytometry exhibited greater sensitivity than the ones by spectrofluorometry.ivity than the ones by spectrofluorometry. +
'''Background:''' Sepsis is a severe infla … '''Background:''' Sepsis is a severe inflammatory disorder with a high mortality in intensive care units mostly due to multiorgan failure. Mitochondrial dysfunction is regarded as a key factor involved in the pathogenesis of septic disorders, leading to a decline in energy supply. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether application of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) could improve mitochondrial function and thus might serve as a potential energy source under inflammatory conditions. '''Materials and Methods:''' As an experimental approach, starved human endothelial cells and monocytes were incubated with hexanoic acid, heptanoic acid, octanoic acid, or glucose and subsequently subjected to high-resolution respirometry to assess mitochondrial function under baseline conditions. In a second set of experiments, cells were pretreated with tumor necrosis factor-α to mimic inflammation and sepsis. Results: We demonstrated that addition of SCFAs and MCFAs increases mitochondrial respiratory capacity at baseline and inflammatory conditions in both cell types. None of the fatty acids induced changes in mitochondrial DNA content or the generation of proinflammatory cytokines, indicating a beneficial safety profile. '''Conclusion:''' We deduce that SCFAs and MCFAs are suitable and safe sources of energy under inflammatory conditions with the capability to partly restore mitochondrial respiration. partly restore mitochondrial respiration. +

'''Call for research - We all need oxygen … '''Call for research - We all need oxygen – “The oceans are gasping for air”''' 1, 2, 3“Human dominion over planet Earth is driving profound changes that may culminate in extinction.” 4 Whilst there is wider research into the oceanic impact of climate change including warming and acidification,5, 6 and on oxygen content of oceans, there is very little research into the specific impact of acidification and related carbon dioxide changes on marine photosynthetic oxygen production.This is an important field of research as it also involves consideration of the consequent effects of excess atmospheric carbon dioxide, including warming, on oceanic and atmospheric oxygen, oxygen exchange between them and possibilities of tipping points whereby photosynthetic marine organisms may rapidly die off, potentially leading to severe existential consequences for aerobic life forms.We bemoan the loss of polar bears and rare alpine plants along with changes to weather and food, but as societies and individuals we are reluctant to severely moderate the day-to-day fossil fuel energy consumption that underlies 21st century life. When faced by the choice of polar bears vs cars, heating, laptops and phones, the polar bears lose!Ocean acidification is a more empirically evidenced phenomenon than climate change, however, it is also less prominent in the public psyche even though it springs from the same increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Were research to be commissioned, though, that provides clear evidence of risk to oceanic oxygen production and therefore atmospheric oxygen levels, the conclusions could be far-reaching, including identifying a potential tipping point that may result in human extinction.This stark prospect would, arguably, be easier to convey to, and fix in the wider public consciousness than the more diffuse issues around climate change. Humans are reminded with every breath they take that oxygen is essential to their health function and, ultimately, their survival and existence as a species.7 The importance of the prospect of oxygen depletion for future generations would be easily understood by all, and so promote greater public engagement and cohesive demand for a global response to try and find viable energy alternatives to fossil fuels.iable energy alternatives to fossil fuels. +

Ten control subjects (age, 54.3 ± 2.8 yr; body mass index, 30.4 ± 1.2 kg/m2) with normal fasting and 2-h oral glucosetolerance test blood glucose levels were also included. Main Outcome Measure:Wemeasured mitochondrial respiration in saponin-treated skinned musclefibers from biopsies of m. deltoideus and m. vastus lateralis using high-resolution respirometry.'''Results''': In the arm, mitochondrial respiration and citrate synthase activity did not differ between groups, but mitochondrial respiration per milligram of muscle was significantly higher in the leg muscle of the control subjects compared to T2DM. Fiber type compositions in arm and leg muscleswere not different between the T2DM and control group, and maximum rate of O2 consumption did not differ between the groups.'''Conclusion''': The results demonstrate that reduced mitochondrial function in T2DM is only present in the leg musculature. This novel finding suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction is not a primary defect affecting all skeletal muscle but could be related to a decreased response to locomotor muscle use in T2DM.

Mitochondr Physiol Network 08.09(11):1-8.'''An experiment on respiration of [[living cells]] is reported from an O2k-Workshop on high-resolution respirometry. Leukemia cells were incubated at a density of 1 million cells/ml in 2 ml culture medium in two O2k-Chambers operated in parallel. Cellular ROUTINE respiration, ''J''R, resulted in volume-specific oxygen consumption of 20 pmol·s-1·ml-1. Oxygen concentration changed by merely 6.4 and 6.5 µM in the two O2k-Chambers over a period of 5 min (<1% air saturation per minute). Inhibition by oligomycin (''JL''), and rotenone (residual oxygen consumption, ''J''ROX; after uncoupling) reduced respiration to 5 and 1 pmol·s-1·ml-1, while inducing the noncoupled state by the uncoupler FCCP revealed the capacity of the Electron transfer-pathway (ET-pathway) at ''JE'' of 50 pmol·s-1·ml-1. The ROUTINE control ratio, ''R/E'', was 0.4 (uncoupling control ratio, UCR=''E/R''=2.5), and the LEAK control ratio, ''L/E'', was 0.1 (''E/L''=12.0). This indicates tight coupling of OXPHOS, and a large ET-pathway excess capacity over ROUTINE respiration. The net ROUTINE control ratio, net''R''=(''R-L'')/''E'' was 0.30, indicating that 30% of ET-pathway capacity was activated for ATP production.Automatic correction for instrumental background amounted to 13% for ROUTINE respiration, but to >50% and 180% for ''JL'' and ''J''ROX, respectively, illustrating the importance of real-time correction. The experiment illustrates the sensitivity and resproducibility of high-resolution respirometry with the OROBOROS O2k. Calibrations and routine corrections provide the basis of the high accuracy required for mitochondrial respiratory physiology. Real-time analyses were performed, combining high-resolution with instant diagnostic information.

'''Essentials:''' The role of protein C (P … '''Essentials:''' The role of protein C (PC) activation in experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE) is unknown. PC activation is required for mitochondrial function in the central nervous system. Impaired PC activation aggravates EAE, which can be compensated for by soluble thrombomodulin. Protection of myelin by activated PC or solulin is partially independent of immune-modulation.'''SUMMARY:''' Studies with human samples and in rodents established a function of coagulation proteases in neuro-inflammatory demyelinating diseases (e.g. in multiple sclerosis [MS] and experimental autoimmune encephalitis [EAE]). Surprisingly, approaches to increase activated protein C (aPC) plasma levels as well as antibody-mediated inhibition of PC/aPC ameliorated EAE in mice. Hence, the role of aPC generation in demyelinating diseases and potential mechanisms involved remain controversial. Furthermore, it is not known whether loss of aPC has pathological consequences at baseline (e.g. in the absence of disease). To explore the role of thrombomodulin (TM)-dependent aPC generation at baseline and in immunological and non-immunological demyelinating disease models. Myelination and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation were evaluated in mice with genetically reduced TM-mediated protein C activation (TMPro/Pro) and in wild-type (WT) mice under control conditions or following induction of EAE. Non-immunological demyelination was analyzed in the cuprizone-diet model. Impaired TM-dependent aPC generation already disturbs myelination and mitochondrial function at baseline. This basal phenotype is linked with increased mitochondrial ROS and aggravates EAE. Reducing mitochondrial ROS (p66Shc deficiency), restoring aPC plasma levels or injecting soluble TM (solulin) ameliorates EAE in TMPro/Pro mice. Soluble TM additionally conveyed protection in WT-EAE mice. Furthermore, soluble TM dampened demyelination in the cuprizone-diet model, demonstrating that its myelin-protective effect is partially independent of an immune-driven process. These results uncover a novel physiological function of TM-dependent aPC generation within the CNS. Loss of TM-dependent aPC generation causes a neurological defect in healthy mice and aggravates EAE, which can be therapeutically corrected.© 2016 International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis.ically corrected. © 2016 International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis. +
