Sphingosine kinase 2 activates autophagy and protects neurons against ischemic injury through interaction with Bcl-2 via its putative BH3 domain [PDF]
Our previous findings suggest that sphingosine kinase 2 (SPK2) mediates ischemic tolerance and autophagy in cerebral preconditioning. The aim of this study was to determine by which mechanism SPK2 activates autophagy in neural cells.

This review highlights mitochondrial dysfunction as a central driver of pancreatic β cell failure in diabetes, caused by disrupted mitochondrial quality control (MQC), oxidative stress, and impaired organelle communication. Emerging therapies, such as DRAK2 inhibitors and metabolic reprogramming agents, show promise in restoring β cell function by ...

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells from patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease have increased DNA damage and reduced angiogenesis that can be modified by hypoxia [PDF]
Representative flow cytometric plots (FACS) showing that AMSCs expressed HLA-ABC, CD44, CD90, CD29, CD73, and CD105 markers, and did not express HLA-DR, CD45, CD14 or CD34 markers.

FAM162A, localized within mitochondrial cristae, emerges as a novel regulator of mitochondrial dynamics. It post‐translationally modulates OPA1, maintaining cristae structure and boosting cellular bioenergetics. This key interaction enhances cell viability, stress resistance, and overall organismal health.

Genome-wide expression patterns associated with oncogenesis and sarcomatous transdifferentation of cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]
Background The molecular mechanisms of CC (cholangiocarcinoma) oncogenesis and progression are poorly understood. This study aimed to determine the genome-wide expression of genes related to CC oncogenesis and sarcomatous transdifferentiation.

Mitochondrial autophagy: Origins, significance, and role of BNIP3 and NIX
Mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) is a core cellular activity. In this review, we consider mitophagy and related cellular processes and discuss their significance for human disease. Strong parallels exist between mitophagy and xenophagy employed in host defense. These mechanisms converge on receptors in the innate immune system in clinically relevant

Muscle aging is characterized by alterations in mitochondrial morphology and structure, leading to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This increase in ROS activates Key/Relish‐mediated inflammatory pathways, resulting in the production of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) that further accelerate aging.

ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive brain tumour with an immunosuppressive environment and poor prognosis; however, the roles of mitophagy and oxidative stress in its prognosis remain underexplored. This study analysed multi‐omics data from TCGA‐GBM (n = 168) and two GEO cohorts (GSE43378, n = 50; GSE147352, n = 85), compiling 603 mitophagy ...
