Mitochondrial Dynamics and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Diabetes [PDF]
The mitochondria are involved in active and dynamic processes, such as mitochondrial biogenesis, fission, fusion and mitophagy to maintain mitochondrial and cellular functions.

Dualsteric agonist N8‐iper shows cytotoxic effects on glioblastoma cancer stem cells, but not on human normal astrocytes. Lipid accumulation appears as a consequence of cytotoxic stress; in fact, they are not present in healthy astrocytes. ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GB) is the most malignant form of human brain tumor, characterized by heterogeneous cell ...

6-Gingerol protects cardiocytes H9c2 against hypoxia-induced injury by suppressing BNIP3 expression
Background Cardiomyocytes loss is the predominant pathogenic characteristic in the hypoxia-induced injury. Meanwhile, it has been corroborated that Bcl-2 E1B 19-KDa interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) provokes apoptosis and autophagy.

Skeletal muscle energy metabolism in environmental hypoxia: climbing towards consensus. [PDF]
Skeletal muscle undergoes metabolic remodelling in response to environmental hypoxia, yet aspects of this process remain controversial. Broadly, environmental hypoxia has been suggested to induce: (i) a loss of mitochondrial density; (ii) a substrate ...

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.

PPTC7 antagonizes mitophagy by promoting BNIP3 and NIX degradation via SCFFBXL4
Mitophagy must be carefully regulated to ensure that cells maintain appropriate numbers of functional mitochondria. The SCFFBXL4 ubiquitin ligase complex suppresses mitophagy by controlling the degradation of BNIP3 and NIX mitophagy receptors, and FBXL4 ...

Multiple roles of hypoxia in ovarian function: roles of hypoxia-inducible factor-related and -unrelated signals during the luteal phase [PDF]
There is increasing interest in the role of oxygen conditions in the microenvironment of organs because of the discovery of a hypoxia-specific transcription factor, namely hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) 1.

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 ...

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.
