Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

Drp1 is widely, yet heterogeneously, distributed in the mouse central nervous system
Objectives Drp1 is widely expressed in the mouse central nervous system and plays a role in inducing the mitochondrial fission process. Many diseases are associated with Drp1 and mitochondria.

SENP3 Promotes an Mff-Primed Bcl-xL-Drp1 Interaction Involved in Cell Death Following Ischemia
Dysregulation of the mitochondrial fission machinery has been linked to cell death following ischemia. Fission is largely dependent on recruitment of Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) to the receptor Mitochondrial fission factor (Mff) located on the ...

The phosphorylation state of Drp1 determines cell fate [PDF]
Recent research has opened new avenues for the evaluation of mitochondrial function; for example, mitochondria are no longer perceived as thread‐like static entities within the cytosol, but instead are viewed as highly dynamic organelles that can change in shape and size, and are transported to strategic locations within the cell.

Best known as the powerhouse of the cell, mitochondria have many other important functions such as buffering intracellular calcium and reactive oxygen species levels, initiating apoptosis and supporting cell proliferation and survival.

Necroptosis induced by RIPK3 requires MLKL but not Drp1 [PDF]
Necroptosis is a mechanism by which cells can kill themselves that does not require caspase activity or the presence of the pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members Bax or Bak. It has been reported that RIPK3 (receptor interacting protein kinase 3) activates MLKL (mixed lineage kinase domain-like) to cause cell death that requires dynamin-related protein 1 ...

Abstract Mitochondrial fission is a critical physiological process in eukaryotic cells, participating in various vital activities such as mitosis, mitochondria quality control, and mitophagy. Recent studies have revealed a tight connection between mitochondrial fission and the mitochondrial metabolism, as well as apoptosis, which involves ...

Sequestration puts Drp1 on furlough [PDF]
![Figure][1] Drp1-x01 (green) localizes to microtubules (red). Strack et al. identify a splice variant of the mitochondrial fission protein Drp1 that can be sequestered away on microtubules.
