Methods in Toxicology, Volume 2: Mitochondrial Dysfunction provides a source of methods, techniques, and experimental approaches for studying the role of abnormal mitochondrial function in cell injury. The book discusses the methods for the preparation and basic functional assessment of mitochondria from liver, kidney, muscle, and brain; the methods for assessing mitochondrial dysfunction in vivo and in intact organs; and the structural aspects of mitochondrial dysfunction are addressed. The text also describes chemical detoxification and metabolism as well as specific metabolic reactions that are especially important targets or indicators of damage. The methods for measurement of alterations in fatty acid and phospholipid metabolism and for the analysis and manipulation of oxidative injury and antioxidant systems are also considered. The book further tackles additional methods on mitochondrial energetics and transport processes; approaches for assessing impaired function of mitochondria; and genetic and developmental aspects of mitochondrial disease and toxicology. The text also looks into mitochondrial DNA synthesis, covalent binding to mitochondrial DNA, DNA repair, and mitochondrial dysfunction in the context of developing individuals and cellular differentiation. Microbiologists, toxicologists, biochemists, and molecular pharmacologists will find the book invaluable.

Genetic alterations in cancer, in addition to being the fundamental drivers of tumorigenesis, can give rise to a variety of metabolic adaptations that allow cancer cells to survive and proliferate in diverse tumor microenvironments. This metabolic flexibility is different from normal cellular metabolic processes and leads to heterogeneity in cancer metabolism within the same cancer type or even within the same tumor. In this book, we delve into the complexity and diversity of cancer metabolism, and highlight how understanding the heterogeneity of cancer metabolism is fundamental to the development of effective metabolism-based therapeutic strategies. Deciphering how cancer cells utilize various nutrient resources will enable clinicians and researchers to pair specific chemotherapeutic agents with patients who are most likely to respond with positive outcomes, allowing for more cost-effective and personalized cancer therapeutic strategies.

The genitourinary system is closely related to the endocrine system. Some genitourinary organs are endocrine organs themselves. Over the past decades, the diagnosis and treatment on both endocrine and urological diseases have developed rapidly. Concerns regarding the normal growth, development, and physiological functions of the genitourinary system, as well as the pathogenesis and treatment of urinary diseases have been raised. The diseases from these two different systems belong to the specialties of internal medicine and surgery respectively. For example, prostate is regulated by androgen originates from testis, adrenal and even malignancies. Androgen deprivation therapy has definite effect on prostatic adenocarcinoma but may also develop castration resistance. The disorders of gonad and reproductive health are also implicated in hormone regulation, such as delayed hypogonadism. Many diseases such as Cushing's syndrome and aldosteronism are transdisciplinary. However, the research on the normal physiological function, and the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of both systems are short of cross-integration, resulting in a lack of close cooperation between physicians and surgeons. We are calling for more attention on the joint participation in multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment, as well as collaboration on basic research in the field of genitourinary and endocrine diseases.

Cell death, a biological event important for maintaining the growth, development, and life processes of organisms, mainly includes programmed death (apoptosis, pyroptosis, autophagy, mitochondrial apoptosis, ferroptosis, cuproptosis, and disulfidptosis, etc.) and non-programmed death (cell necrosis). Many diseases, including cancers, exhibit dysregulated immune activities as key features due to the increase in oxidative stress, which eventually leads to cell death. Understanding the intricate relationships between cell death, oxidative stress, and immune regulation could be critical in elucidating the key molecular mechanisms of these diseases, possibly uncovering novel therapeutics/diagnostics for disease management. For example, ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent cell death that is triggered by the toxic accumulation of oxidative stress, can induce immunosuppression in tumor neutrophils, whereas inhibition of ferroptosis can slow tumor progression. For another example, pyroptosis, a form of lytic cell death which can be triggered by oxidative stress, when occurs in tumor cells, can induce a strong inflammatory response and significant tumor regression.
