Anion Transport or Nucleotide Binding by Ucp2 Is Indispensable for Ucp2-Mediated Efferocytosis
Rapid and efficient engulfment of apoptotic cells is an essential property of phagocytes for removal of the large number of apoptotic cells generated in multicellular organisms. To achieve this, phagocytes need to be able to continuously uptake apoptotic cells. It was recently reported that uncoupling protein 2 (Ucp2) promotes engulfment of apoptotic cells by increasing the phagocytic capacity,...
متن کاملHydroperoxy fatty acid cycling mediated by mitochondrial uncoupling protein UCP2.
Functional activation of mitochondrial uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) is proposed to decrease reactive oxygen species production. Skulachev and Goglia (Skulachev, V. P., and Goglia, F. (2003) FASEB J. 17, 1585-1591) hypothesized that hydroperoxy fatty acid anions are translocated by UCPs but cannot flip-flop across the membrane. We found that the second aspect is otherwise; the addition of synthes...
متن کاملDecreased Uncoupling Protein 2 and 3 (UCP2 and UCP3) mRNA expression by endurance exercise training with and without chronic administration of nandrolone in rat heart
Introduction: The effect of regular exercise in decreasing the incidence of heart diseases is well known. The abuse of anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) has been associated with cardiovascular disorders. Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) transport protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane thereby proton gradient can be diminished by the action of UCPs. This process will result in the uncoupl...
متن کاملErratum Degradation of an intramitochondrial protein by the cytosolic proteasome
The second sentence of the Summary contains a typographical error. Instead of 'ubiqbiquitiuitin mutants', it should read 'ubiquitin mutants': Using pharmacological proteasome inhibitors, immunoprecipitation, dominant negative ubiquitin mutants, cellular fractionation and siRNA techniques, we demonstrate the involvement of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in the rapid degradation of UCP2. We apol...
متن کاملUncoupling protein-2 controls adiponectin gene expression in adipose tissue through the modulation of reactive oxygen species production.
Uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) is a mitochondrial membrane transporter expressed in white adipose tissue. We observed that circulating adiponectin levels and adiponectin gene expression in adipose tissue are reduced in UCP2-null mice. We studied whether mitochondrial activity and its control by UCP2 may regulate adiponectin gene expression. In 3T3-L1 cells, increasing UCP2 mitochondrial levels by ...
