Mitochondrially generated reactive oxygen species are involved in a myriad of signaling and
damaging pathways in different tissues. In addition, mitochondria are an important target of …

Respiratory metabolism includes the reactions of glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle and
the mitochondrial electron transport chain, but is also directly linked with many other …

Mild mitochondrial uncoupling, or the reduction of the efficiency of energy conversion
without compromising intracellular high energy phosphate levels, is a protective therapeutic …

Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) belong to the mitochondrial anion carrier protein family and
mediate regulated proton leak across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Free fatty acids …

Thermogenesis is a process of heat production in living organisms. It is rare in plants, but it
does occur in some species of angiosperm. The heat is generated via plant mitochondrial …

Temperature and heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd) are important environmental
stressors that can strongly affect mitochondrial function of marine poikilotherms. In this study …

Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are mitochondrial inner membrane transporters that mediate
free-fatty-acid-induced, purine-nucleotide-inhibited proton leak into the mitochondrial matrix …

Coenzyme Q (CoQ), also known as ubiquinone, comprises a benzoquinone head group and
a long isoprenoid sidechain. It is thus extremely hydrophobic and resides in membranes. It is …

Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are members of the mitochondrial anion carrier protein family
that are present in the mitochondrial inner membrane and mediate free fatty acid (FFA) …

Uncoupling proteins are a subfamily of the mitochondrial anion carrier family. They are
widespread in the whole eukaryotic world with a few exceptions and present tissue specific …
