“…In addition, recent studies have reported a role of TFAM in oncogenesis. TFAM, which is increased in thyroid oncocytoma (Savagner et al, 2003), and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion cause apoptosis in osteosarcoma cells (Dey and Moraes, 2000). Moreover, loss of the TFAM gene reduces tumorigenesis in an oncogenic Kras-driven mouse model of lung cancer (Weinberg et al, 2010).…”

“…We choose to investigate the thyroid tumours on the basis of their various mitochondrial content, and, in particular, the thyroid oncocytoma, a mitochondrial-rich thyroid tumour characterised by an oxidative metabolism (Savagner et al, 2003;Baris et al, 2004). In oncocytoma, the large majority of the cells show extensive mitochondrial biogenesis; these tumours thereby constitute an interesting model for the study of the expression and localisation of DAP3, as well as its function in the mitochondrial ribosome.…”

“…The combination of the two observed phenomena, loss of CK expression and NOS over-expression, both of which were known to promote mitochondrial biogenesis [13,25], also prompted us to investigate the status of mitochondrial biogenesis and the transcriptional cascade behind it in sarcoma. Mitochondrial biogenesis is well studied in different human and rodent systems, including in several forms of cancerous tissues [26,27]. Mitochondrial biogenesis is mainly characterized by an increased rate of mitochondrial DNA replication and transcription.…”

“…The process of mitochondrial biogenesis is well controlled by a set of transcription factors, and their strict co-ordination is well studied in various subjects, including in several forms of cancerous tissues [14,26,27]. Mitochondrial transcription factor A (mtTFA) regulates mtDNA replication and transcription, and it is found to be highly upregulated in sarcoma (Fig.…”
