Adenine nucleotide translocase 2 (ANT2) transports glycolytic ATP across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Patients with ANT2 deletion were recently reported. We aimed at characterizing mitochondrial functions in ANT2-defective fibroblasts. In spite of ANT2 expression in fibroblasts, we observed no

Cellular senescence provides a biological barrier against tumor progression, often associated with oncogene-induced replication and/or oxidative stress, cytokine production and DNA damage response (DDR), leading to persistent cell-cycle arrest. While cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TN

Gene therapy using RNA interference can be directed against tumors through various strategies, but has been hindered owing to the inefficiency of non-viral delivery. To evaluate the antitumor effects of adenine nucleotide translocase-2 (ANT2) short hairpin RNA (shRNA) by intraperitoneal injection us
