Integrated genomic analysis of mitochondrial RNA processing in human cancers
Abstract Background: The mitochondrial genome is transcribed as continuous polycistrons of RNA containing multiple genes. As a consequence, post-transcriptional events…
Mitochondrial respiratory gene expression is suppressed in many cancers
Abstract The fundamental metabolic decision of a cell, the balance between respiration and fermentation, rests in part on expression of…
Direct modulation of the outer mitochondrial membrane channel, voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) by cannabidiol: a novel mechanism for cannabinoid-induced cell death
Abstract Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive plant cannabinoid that inhibits cell proliferation and induces cell death of cancer cells and…
