Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is an endogenous adaptive mechanism and is manifested by early and delayed phases of cardioprotection. Brief episodes of ischemia-reperfusion during IPC cause some subtle functional and structural alterations in sarcolemma, mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum, myofibrils, glycocalyx, as well as nucleus, which render these subcellular organelles resistant to subsequent sustained ischemia-reperfusion insult. These changes occur in functional groups of various receptors, cation transporters, cation channels, and contractile and other proteins, and may explain the initial effects of IPC. On the other hand, induction of various transcriptional factors occurs to alter gene expression and structural changes in subcellular organelles and may be responsible for the delayed effects of IPC. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are formed during the IPC period, may cause these changes directly and indirectly and act as a trigger of IPC-induced cardioprotection. As ROS may be one of the several triggers proposed for IPC, this discussion is focused on the current knowledge of both ROS-dependent and ROS-independent mechanisms of IPC. Furthermore, some events, which are related to functional preservation of subcellular organelles, are described for a better understanding of the IPC phenomenon.

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), as natural products with diverse biological activities, play a significant role in regulating inflammatory homeostasis. Nevertheless, the mechanism underlying their intracellular anti-inflammatory properties remains unclear. Herein, we propose a single-organelle visualization tracking framework, leveraging an advanced fluorescent imaging technology combined with labeling methods to dynamically trace the subcellular regulatory mechanisms of GAGs in eliminating inflammatory markers, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Metal ions are indispensable to life, as they can serve as essential enzyme cofactors to drive fundamental biochemical reactions, yet paradoxically, excess is highly toxic. Higher-order cells have evolved functionally distinct organelles that separate and coordinate sophisticated biochemical processes to maintain cellular homeostasis upon metal ion stimuli. Here, we uncover the remodeling of subcellular architecture and organellar interactome in yeast initiated by several metal ion stimulations, relying on near-native three-dimensional imaging, cryo-soft X-ray tomography.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi engage in symbiotic relationships with plants, influencing their phosphate (Pi) uptake pathways, metabolism, and root cell physiology. Despite the significant role of Pi, its distribution and response dynamics in mycorrhizal roots remain largely unexplored. While traditional techniques for Pi measurement have shed some light on this, real-time cellular-level monitoring has been a challenge.

Distinct phospholipid species display specific distribution patterns across cellular membranes, which are important for their structural and signaling roles and for preserving the integrity and functionality of the plasma membrane and organelles. Recent advancements in lipid biosensor technology and imaging modalities now allow for direct observation of phospholipid distribution, trafficking, and dynamics in living cells. These innovations have markedly advanced our understanding of phospholipid function and regulation at both cellular and subcellular levels.
