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

Mitochondrial fusion, fission, and mitochondrial toxicity [PDF]
Mitochondrial dynamics are regulated by two sets of opposed processes: mitochondrial fusion and fission, and mitochondrial biogenesis and degradation (including mitophagy), as well as processes such as intracellular transport. These processes maintain mitochondrial homeostasis, regulate mitochondrial form, volume and function, and are increasingly ...

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

Overproduction of Mitochondrial Fission Proteins and Mitochondrial Fission in Podocytes of Lupus Nephritis Patients. [PDF]
The glomerular injury is associated with different pathogeneses, and podocyte damage is common in various ISN/RPS class lupus nephritis (LN). In podocyte, mitochondrial morphological changes are observed in lupus nephritis (LN) in our previous study. This study aimed to explore mitochondrial fission proteins expression in podocytes using bioinformatics

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.

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 [PDF]
Mitochondria are highly dynamic cellular organelles, with the ability to change size, shape and position over the course of a few seconds. Many of these changes are related to the ability of mitochondria to undergo the highly co-ordinated processes of fission (division of a single organelle into two or more independent structures) or fusion (the ...

Mitochondrial membrane tension governs fission [PDF]
Abstract During mitochondrial fission, key molecular and cellular factors assemble on the outer mitochondrial membrane, where they coordinate to generate constriction. Constriction sites can eventually divide, or reverse upon disassembly of the machinery. However, a role for membrane tension in mitochondrial fission, although speculated,
