The Role of Autophagy and Mitophagy in Huntington’s Disease

open access: yesASM Science Journal, 2021
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an inherited autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder that occurs due to mutations in the polyglutamine expansions of the Huntingtin protein (Htt).

Pink1 and Parkin regulate Drosophila intestinal stem cell proliferation during stress and aging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) maintain the midgut epithelium in Drosophila melanogaster Proper cellular turnover and tissue function rely on tightly regulated rates of ISC division and appropriate differentiation of daughter cells.

The PI3K/Akt-Nrf2 Signaling Pathway and Mitophagy Synergistically Mediate Hydroxytyrosol to Alleviate Intestinal Oxidative Damage

open access: yesInternational Journal on Biological Sciences
Oxidative stress is a major pathogenic factor in many intestinal diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC). The Nrf2 signaling pathway and mitophagy can reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and alleviate oxidative ...

TBK1 Induces the Formation of Optineurin Filaments That Condensate with Polyubiquitin and LC3 for Cargo Sequestration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Phosphorylation of Optineurin by TBK1 induces the formation of filaments that condensate upon binding to linear polyubiquitin. Membrane‐anchored LC3 partitions into these condensates, suggesting that phase separation of filamentous Optineurin with ubiquitylated cargo promotes the sequestration of cargo and its subsequent alignment with LC3‐positive ...

An AI-guided screen identifies probucol as an enhancer of mitophagy through modulation of lipid droplets

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2023
Failures in mitophagy, a process by which damaged mitochondria are cleared, results in neurodegeneration, while enhancing mitophagy promotes the survival of dopaminergic neurons.

Autophagy: A cyto-protective mechanism which prevents primary human hepatocyte apoptosis during oxidative stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The role of autophagy in the response of human hepatocytes to oxidative stress remains unknown. Understanding this process may have important implications for the understanding of basic liver epithelial cell biology and the responses of hepatocytes ...

Exposure of the inner mitochondrial membrane triggers apoptotic mitophagy

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation
During apoptosis mediated by the intrinsic pathway, BAX/BAK triggers mitochondrial permeabilization and the release of cytochrome-c, followed by a dramatic remodelling of the mitochondrial network that results in mitochondrial herniation and the ...

Mitophagy in degenerative joint diseases

open access: yesAutophagy, 2020
Mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in aging and multiple degenerative diseases, including intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) and osteoarthritis (OA). Thus, the maintenance of mitochondria homeostasis and function is important.

XIAP Stabilizes DDRGK1 to Promote ER‐Phagy and Protects Against Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanism of GAS‐mediated protection against noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL). Noise exposure activates the ATF4/eIF2α axis, downregulating XIAP and promoting DDRGK1 degradation, thereby inhibiting ER‐phagy and leading to hair cell (HC) death. GAS treatment rescues XIAP and DDRGK1 expression, reactivating ER‐phagy to mitigate HC loss, synaptic damage,

Life in lights:tracking mitochondrial delivery to lysosomes in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The past decade has seen an intensive and concerted research effort into the molecular regulation of mitophagy, the selective autophagy of mitochondria.
