Mitochondrial fission during mitophagy requires both inner and outer mitofissins [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO Reports
Mitophagy maintains mitochondrial homeostasis through the selective degradation of damaged or excess mitochondria. Recently, we identified mitofissin/Atg44, a mitochondrial intermembrane space-resident fission factor, which directly acts on lipid ...

RETRACTED: Mitochondrial Fission and Mitophagy Reciprocally Orchestrate Cardiac Fibroblasts Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Although mitochondrial fission has been reported to increase proliferative capacity and collagen production, it can also contribute to mitochondrial impairment, which is detrimental to cell survival.

Oxidative stress-mediated mitochondrial fission promotes hepatic stellate cell activation via stimulating oxidative phosphorylation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
Previous studies have demonstrated dysregulated mitochondrial dynamics in fibrotic livers and hepatocytes. Little is currently known about how mitochondrial dynamics are involved, nor is it clear how mitochondrial dynamics participate in hepatic stellate

Mitochondrial Fission and Fusion: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, and Related Disorders

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that undergo fusion and fission. These active processes occur continuously and simultaneously and are mediated by nuclear-DNA-encoded proteins that act on mitochondrial membranes. The balance between fusion and fission

TMEM135 links peroxisomes to the regulation of brown fat mitochondrial fission and energy homeostasis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Mitochondrial morphology, which is controlled by mitochondrial fission and fusion, is an important regulator of the thermogenic capacity of brown adipocytes.

Drosophila phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase fwd promotes mitochondrial fission and can suppress Pink1/parkin phenotypes.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2020
Balanced mitochondrial fission and fusion play an important role in shaping and distributing mitochondria, as well as contributing to mitochondrial homeostasis and adaptation to stress.

A PKD-MFF signaling axis couples mitochondrial fission to mitotic progression

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles subjected to fission and fusion events. During mitosis, mitochondrial fission ensures equal distribution of mitochondria to daughter cells. If and how this process can actively drive mitotic progression

New therapeutic directions in type II diabetes and its complications: mitochondrial dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
As important organelles of energetic and metabolism, changes in the dynamic state of mitochondria affect the homeostasis of cellular metabolism. Mitochondrial dynamics include mitochondrial fusion and mitochondrial fission.

METTL3 boosts mitochondrial fission and induces cardiac fibrosis by enhancing LncRNA GAS5 methylation

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2023
Dysregulated mitochondrial metabolism occurs in several pathological processes characterized by cell proliferation and migration. Nonetheless, the role of mitochondrial fission is not well appreciated in cardiac fibrosis, which is accompanied by enhanced

Insulin-stimulated lipid accumulation is inhibited by ROS-scavenging chemicals, but not by the Drp1 inhibitor Mdivi-1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Adipocyte differentiation is regulated by intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and mitochondrial fission and fusion processes. However, the correlation between intracellular ROS generation and mitochondrial remodeling during adipocyte ...
