Create
how mitochondria are a source of oxidative stress
electrons are lost during ATP synthesis
sources of ROS
-exogenous
: pollutants, tobacco, drugs
-endogenous
: NADPH oxidase, ETC
types of ROS
1) superoxide anions
2) H2O2
3) hydroxy/peroxy radicals
forms of oxidative damage (4)
1) DNA damage
2) lipid peroxidation
3) AA oxidation
4) cofactor oxidation
enzyme family that converts molecules into more water soluble forms that are more efficiently excreted
cytochrome P450
xenobiotic
compound did not originate from the body
glutathione peroxidase
reduces ROS to nonreactive molecule
glutathione reductase
reduces glutathione and creates NADP+ from NADPH + H+
catalyzes the conversion of hydrogen peroxide to water
catalase
coverts superoxide to water
superoxide dismutase
3 ER stress sensors
1) PERK
2) ATF6
3) IRE1
cells that fuse such that many nuclei share 1 cytoplasm
syncytia
stem cells of muscle
myoblasts
create myoblasts
satellite cells
protein that functions as a negative regulator or muscle mass
mystatin
3 caspase targets
1) actin
2) laminin
3) ICAD
organelle that initiates apoptotic signal
mitochondria
mitochondrial apoptotic pathway
cyt c -> Apaf-1 aggregation -> caspase 9
pro-apoptotic Bcl protein
Bax
anti-apoptotic protein
Bcl-2
binds Bax to inhibit apoptosis
Bcl-2
stress sensor doman in Bcl-2
BH3
"eat me" signal
phosphatidyl serine (PS)
activated by Ca2+ to activate apoptosis
calcineurin
promotes creation of autophagosome, negatively regulated by mTOR
ULK complex
proteins playing role in formation/fusion of autophagosomes; activated by SIRT1
ATG proteins
response in autophagy with decrease in mTOR
increase in autophagy
Fas activators
Fas ligand
TNFR1
