The mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) activates mitochondrial respiration and enhances mobility by regulating mitochondrial redox state

Umberto De Marchi, Sonia Karaz, Federico Sizzano, Vincenzo Sorrentino

Regulation of mitochondrial redox balance is emerging as a key event for cell signaling in both physiological and pathological conditions. However, the link between the mitochondrial redox state and the modulation of these conditions remains poorly defined ...

Aging Disrupts Muscle Stem Cell Function by Impairing Matricellular WISP1 Secretion from Fibro-Adipogenic Progenitors

Patrick Descombes, Guillaume Jacot, Sara Ancel, Laura Lukjanenko, Sylviane Métairon, Sonia Karaz, Federico Sizzano, Omid Mashinchian

Research on age-related regenerative failure of skeletal muscle has extensively focused on the phenotypes of muscle stem cells (MuSCs). In contrast, the impact of aging on regulatory cells in the MuSC niche remains largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate ...

Nuclear Proteomics Uncovers Diurnal Regulatory Landscapes in Mouse Liver

Felix Naef, Loïc Dayon, Martin Kussmann, Jingkui Wang, Florian Atger, Daniel Alain Dominique Marie Mauvoisin, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Federico Sizzano

Diurnal oscillations of gene expression controlled by the circadian clock and its connected feeding rhythm enable organisms to coordinate their physiologies with daily environmental cycles. While available techniques yielded crucial insights into regulatio ...
