The mitochondrial glutamine transporter SLC1A5_var plays a central role in the metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells by facilitating glutamine import into mitochondria for energy production and redox homeostasis. Despite its critical function, the development of effective and selective inhibito...

Somatic DNMT3A R882 codon mutations drive the most common form of clonal haematopoiesis (CH) and are associated with increased acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) risk1,2. Preventing expansion of DNMT3A-R882-mutant haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) may therefore avert progression to AML. To ide...

Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of nonapoptotic cell death mediated by lipid peroxidation, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple diseases. Subcellular organelles play pivotal roles in the regulation of ferroptosis, but the mechanisms underlying the contributions of the mitochond...

About a thousand genes in the human genome encode for membrane transporters. Among these, several solute carrier proteins (SLCs), representing the largest group of transporters, are still orphan and lack functional characterization. We reasoned that assessing genetic interactions among SLCs may be a...

Mitochondrial disorders frequently manifest with life-threatening hepatic metabolic crises. Using a global Sfxn5-knockout mouse model, we investigated the systemic consequences of disrupting this mitochondrial inner-membrane transporter through integrated biochemical, metabolomic, histological, and ...

We have studied the deoxynucleotide transport in Drosophila melanogaster. On the basis of homology with the S. cerevisiae RIM2 gene, encoding a pyrimidine deoxynucleotide carrier (Marrobbio et al. 2006), the CG18317 gene (dRIM2) in the fruit fly may code for a deoxynucleotide carrier. We demonstrate...

BACKGROUND: Neuroblastoma accounts for 7% of paediatric malignancies but is responsible for 15% of all childhood cancer deaths. Despite rigorous treatment involving chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and immunotherapy, the 5-year overall survival rate of high-risk disease remai...
