Mitophagy is a selective process that targets the damaged, dysfunctional, or superfluous mitochondria for degradation through autophagy. The SCFFBXL4 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex suppresses basal mitophagy by targeting BNIP3 and BNIP3L, two key mitophagy ...

BNIP3 Downregulation Ameliorates Muscle Atrophy in Cancer Cachexia
Background and Aims: Cancer cachexia is a complex syndrome affecting most cancer patients and is directly responsible for about 20% of cancer-related deaths. Previous studies showed muscle proteolysis hyper-activation and mitophagy induction in tumor-bearing animals.

Coordinating BNIP3/NIX-mediated mitophagy in space and time
Mitochondria maintain organellar homeostasis through multiple quality control pathways, including the clearance of defective or unwanted mitochondria by selective autophagy. This removal of mitochondria, mitophagy, is controlled in large part by the outer mitochondrial membrane mitophagy receptors BNIP3 and NIX.

BackgroundRenal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a prevalent malignancy with limited effective therapies, necessitating novel molecular targets. BNIP3, a pro-apoptotic protein regulated by hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), is implicated in autophagy and ...

HIF1A/BNIP3 pathway affects ferroptosis in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy through binding to BCL-2
Background: Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) involves ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) regulates autophagy and apoptosis, but its role in ferroptosis remains unclear.

BNIP3-mediated mitophagy aggravates placental injury in preeclampsia via NLRP1 inflammasome
IntroductionPreeclampsia (PE) is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy characterized by pronounced placental oxidative stress and inflammatory damage. However, the contribution of mitophagy to inflammation-induced placental injury in PE remains unclear ...

Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer due to its ability to metastasize rapidly and to become resistant to various forms of therapies. To support their aggressive phenotype, melanoma cells require metabolic plasticity, which they acquire by hijacking key adaptive responses like the hypoxia-inducible response and autophagy.
