The TOB (Topogenesis of Outer membrane β-barrel proteins) complex is composed of the core proteins Tob55 (Sam50), Tob37 (Sam37) and Tob38 (Sam35). The complex facilitates the insertion of all β-barrel and some α-helically anchored integral proteins into the mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM)....

Characterization of the Mitochondrial Phenotype Associated with Primary Biliary Cholangitis
DownloadSpring 2017
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease characterized by the immune-mediated destruction of intra-hepatic bile ducts. The autoimmune nature of PBC involves humoral and cell-mediated responses that target endogenous mitochondrial proteins. It is thought that the breakdown of...

Chronic Fatigue Mechanisms in Autoimmune Diseases: Lessons from Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Systemic Sclerosis
DownloadFall 2023
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease affecting the body's connective tissues, resulting in progressive fibrosis and vasculopathy. In some cases, individuals with SSc may also develop primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), another autoimmune disease characterized by damage to their...

The analysis of wide-angle cellular light scattering patterns is a challenging problem. Small changes to the organization, orientation, shape, and optical properties of scatterers and scattering populations can significantly alter their complex two-dimensional scattering signatures. Because of...

The pathological events initiating diabetic cardiac changes in response to chronic hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia remain unclear. Due to the high metabolic activity of the heart, and its sensitivity to acute changes in oxygen and substrate flux, mitochondrial dysfunction has been proposed as...

Lifestyle modifications that induce energy deficit, such as diet and physical activity are considered the cornerstone of weight management. The overall purpose of this research was to compare the effects of an acute nutritional intervention comprised of a high-protein (HP) diet replacement versus...
