Abstract
Increasing evidence has shown that mitochondrial dysfunction and iron accumulation contribute to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Nedd4 family interacting protein 1 (Ndfip1) is an adaptor protein of the Nedd4 E3 ubiquitin ligases. We have previously reported that Ndfip1 showed a neuroprotective effect in cell models of PD. However, whether Ndfip1 could protect dopaminergic neurons in PD animal models in vivo and the possible mechanisms are not known. Here, our results showed that the expression of Ndfip1 decreased in the substantia nigra (SN) of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced PD mouse model. Overexpression of Ndfip1 could improve MPTP-induced motor dysfunction significantly and antagonize the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the SN of MPTP-induced mice. Further study showed that overexpression of Ndfip1 might protect against MPTP-induced neurotoxicity through regulation of voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC). In addition, we observed the downregulation of Ndfip1 and upregulation of VDAC1/2 in 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+)-induced SH-SY5Y cells. Furthermore, high expression of Ndfip1 in SH-SY5Y cells inhibited MPP+-induced increase of VDAC1/2 and restored MPP+-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, Ndfip1 prevented MPP+-induced increase in the expression of long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 4 (ACSL4), suggesting the possible role of Ndfip1 in regulating ferroptosis. Our results provide new evidence for the neuroprotective effect of Ndfip1 on dopaminergic neurons in PD animal models and provide promising targets for the treatment of iron-related diseases, including PD.

Abstract
Silymarin was shown to enhance diclofenac toxicity by inducing the loss of mitochondrial membrane permeability (MMP) in Caco-2 cells, independent of endoplasmic reticulum stress. This study employed in silico molecular docking to further investigate the potential interaction between silymarin and specific mitochondrial proteins involved in the loss of mitochondria integrity, aiming to elucidate the underlying mechanism of potentiation. The target proteins for our docking analysis included mitochondrial complex I and III, voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC), and cyclophilin D (CypD). Our results indicated that diclofenac could bind to both mitochondrial complex I and III. In contrast, silymarin exhibited a strong interaction with mitochondrial complex I with the binding energy (ΔG) -7.74 kcal/mol and the inhibition constant (Ki) 2.12 µM, while not showing significant interaction with mitochondrial complex III. Additionally, silymarin had the potential to induce the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore by binding with VDAC in the outer mitochondrial membrane with ΔG -6.08 kcal/mol and Ki 34.94 µM. However, silymarin did not exhibit significant interaction with CypD in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Therefore, mitochondrial complex I and VDAC could be the potentiation targets of silymarin, resulting in the disruption of mitochondria integrity and enhancing the toxicity of diclofenac.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE L5, a highly electronegative subtype of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), is likely associated with the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. Normal LDL is composed mainly of apolipoprotein (Apo) B, but L5 has additional proteins such as ApoE. We previously demonstrated that L5 induces endothelial cell senescence by increasing mitochondrial reactive oxygen species. In the present study, we examined the effect of L5 on mitochondrial function in cardiomyocytes. METHODS We used the Seahorse XF24 extracellular flux analyzer to examine the effect of L5 and its components on mitochondrial energy production. The effects of L5 on mitochondrial morphology were examined by immunofluorescence using MitoTracker Green FM and the corresponding probes in H9c2 cardiomyoblasts. Mitochondrial permeability was assessed by using a calcium-induced swelling assay with a voltage-dependent anion-selective channel (VDAC) inhibitor to determine VDAC-dependence both in vitro and in vivo. L5 without ApoE, referred to as △L5, was used to clarify the role of ApoE in L5-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. RESULTS L5 not only significantly decreased basal (P < 0.05) and maximal respiration (P < 0.01) but also reduced spare respiratory capacity (P < 0.01) in H9c2 cells. Additionally, L5 caused phosphorylation of Drp1 and mitochondrial fission. Recombinant ApoE mimicked the mitochondrial effects of L5, but △L5 did not cause similar effects. After entering cells, ApoE on L5 colocalized with mitochondrial VDAC and caused mitochondria swelling both in vitro and in vivo. This effect was also seen with recombinant ApoE but not △L5. CONCLUSIONS ApoE may play an important role in electronegative LDL-induced mitochondrial dysfunction through the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore via the interaction of ApoE and VDAC.

Abstract
Mitochondrial biogenesis, a mitochondrial growth and division process, is crucial for adaptation to metabolic stress. The present study demonstrated that treatment with a specific inhibitor of GSK3, SB216763, attenuated induction of mitochondrial biogenesis by a glycolysis inhibitor, 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG), without affecting this biogenesis at basal condition. Additionally, overexpression of WT-GSK3β promoted whereas GSK3β-KD attenuated 2-DG-induced mitochondrial protein expression. The mitochondrial biogenesis attenuation by GSK3 inhibitor was not due to inhibition of protein degradation. Furthermore, GSK3 inhibition further reduced transcription of mitochondrial (COXII), but not nuclear (VDAC) gene by 2-DG suggesting its participation in 2-DG-induced mitochondrial transcription. Together, our results show that GSK3 regulates mitochondrial biogenesis induced by glycolysis inhibition.
