Mitochondrial dynamics and mitochondrial quality control

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2015
Mitochondria are cellular energy powerhouses that play important roles in maintaining cell survival, cell death and cellular metabolic homeostasis. Timely removal of damaged mitochondria via autophagy (mitophagy) is thus critical for cellular homeostasis

Current Understanding of the Pivotal Role of Mitochondrial Dynamics in Cardiovascular Diseases and Senescence

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
The heart is dependent on ATP production in mitochondria, which is closely associated with cardiovascular disease because of the oxidative stress produced by mitochondria. Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that constantly change their morphology

Phosphorylation of Dynamin-Related Protein 1 (DRP1) Regulates Mitochondrial Dynamics and Skeletal Muscle Wasting in Cancer Cachexia

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
BackgroundCancer-associated cachexia (CAC) is a syndrome characterized by skeletal muscle atrophy, and the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Recent research studies have shed light on a noteworthy link between mitochondrial dynamics and muscle ...

Rutin inhibits DRP1-mediated mitochondrial fission and prevents ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity in HepG2 cells and zebrafish

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems, 2021
Excessive alcohol consumption causes the cellular and tissue damage. The toxic metabolites of ethanol are harmful to multiple organ systems, such as the central nervous system, skeletal muscles, and liver, and cause alcohol-induced diseases like cancer ...

Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission regulates calcium and F-actin dynamics during wound healing

open access: yesBiology Open, 2020
Mitochondria adapt to cellular needs by changes in morphology through fusion and fission events, referred to as mitochondrial dynamics. Mitochondrial function and morphology are intimately connected and the dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics is ...

Cardiomyocyte mitochondrial dynamics in health and disease and the role of exercise training: A brief review

open access: yesResearch in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Mitochondria as dynamic organelle constantly undergo fusion and fission reactions, leading to continuous reconstruction of the mitochondrial network for elongated or fragmentation shapes and ultimately the mitophagy.

Defective mitochondrial dynamics is an early event in skeletal muscle of an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mouse model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that constantly undergo fusion and fission to maintain their normal functionality. Impairment of mitochondrial dynamics is implicated in various neurodegenerative disorders.

Unveiling the potential of mitochondrial dynamics as a therapeutic strategy for acute kidney injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), a critical clinical syndrome, has been strongly linked to mitochondrial malfunction. Mitochondria, vital cellular organelles, play a key role in regulating cellular energy metabolism and ensuring cell survival.
