van der Lee R, Szklarczyk R, Smeitink J, Smeets HJ, Huynen MA, Vogel R. Transcriptome analysis of complex I - deficient patients reveals distinct expression programs for subunits and assembly
factors of the oxidative phosphorylation system.
The first of these, IACS - 010759, an
inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia, has completed GLP - toxicology studies and an Investigational New Drug (IND) application, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration during summer 2016 and has entered into a Phase I clinical trial at MD Anderson.
In the early 1950s, he shifted his focus to biological phenomena and studied the
control of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and revealed the role of ADP in respiratory control.
«The initial biochemical local sub-cellular damage is due to the entrance of the usually acidic NSAID into the cell via damage of the brush border cell membrane and disruption of the mitochondrial
process of oxidative phosphorylation, with consequent ATP deficiency ``
The Warburg Effect refers to the fact that cancer cells, somewhat counter intuitively, prefers fermentation as a source of energy rather than the more efficient mitochondrial
pathway of oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos).
