      Fernández-Caggiano, Mariana; Kamynina, Alisa; Francois, Asvi A.; Prysyazhna, Oleksandra; Eykyn, Thomas R.; Krasemann, Susanne; Crespo-Leiro, María Generosa; García-Vieites, M.; Bianchi, Katiuscia; Morales, Valle; Doménech, Nieves; Eaton, Philip (Springer Nature, 2020-10-26)
      [Abstract] Cardiomyocytes rely on metabolic substrates, not only to fuel cardiac output, but also for growth and remodelling during stress. Here we show that mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) abundance mediates ...

      López-Vázquez, Paula; Fernández-Caggiano, Mariana; Barge-Caballero, Eduardo; Barge-Caballero, Gonzalo; Couto-Mallón, David; Grille-Cancela, Zulaika; Blanco-Canosa, Paula; Paniagua-Martín, María J.; Enríquez-Vázquez, Daniel; Vázquez-Rodríguez, José M.; Doménech, Nieves; Crespo-Leiro, María Generosa (Frontiers, 2024-03-08)
      [Abstract] Introduction and objectives: Mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC) mediates the entry of pyruvate into mitochondria, determining whether pyruvate is incorporated into the Krebs cycle or metabolized in the cytosol. ...
