Abstract

Flavin-Containing Monooxygenases are conserved xenobiotic-detoxifying enzymes. Recent studies have revealed endogenous functions of FMOs in regulating longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans and in regulating aspects of metabolism in mice. To explore the cellular mechanisms of FMO's endogenous function, here we demonstrate that all five functional mammalian FMOs may play similar endogenous roles to improve resistance to a wide range of toxic stresses in both kidney and liver cells. We further find that stress-activated c-Jun N-terminal kinase activity is enhanced in FMO-overexpressing cells, which may lead to increased survival under stress. Furthermore, FMO expression modulates cellular metabolic activity as measured by mitochondrial respiration, glycolysis, and metabolomics analyses. FMO expression augments mitochondrial respiration and significantly changes central carbon metabolism, including amino acid and energy metabolism pathways. Together, our findings demonstrate an important endogenous role for the FMO family in regulation of cellular stress resistance and major cellular metabolic activities including central carbon metabolism.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 March 2021.
All research outputs
#14,553,484
of 24,417,958 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
#2,745
of 9,947 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#259,162
of 524,021 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
#253
of 828 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,417,958 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,947 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 71% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 524,021 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 828 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
