HIF1a-dependent mitophagy facilitates cardiomyoblast differentiation [PDF]
Mitophagy is thought to play a key role in eliminating damaged mitochondria, with diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration exhibiting defects in this process.

The mitophagy pathway and its implications in human diseases
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles with multiple functions. They participate in necrotic cell death and programmed apoptotic, and are crucial for cell metabolism and survival.

Parkin-Independent Mitophagy Controls Chemotherapeutic Response in Cancer Cells [PDF]
Mitophagy is an evolutionarily conserved process that selectively targets impaired mitochondria for degradation. Defects in mitophagy are often associated with diverse pathologies, including cancer.

Mitophagy in neurological disorders [PDF]
Selective autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that removes excess protein aggregates and damaged intracellular components. Most eukaryotic cells, including neurons, rely on proficient mitophagy responses to fine-tune the mitochondrial ...

Role of mitophagy in breast cancer: mitophagy-apoptosis balance and reactive oxygen species play determining role [PDF]
This review aims to present a current overview of the role of mitophagy in breast cancer progression, especially from the point of view of when the cancer is in the untreated state or under chemotherapeutic treatment.

Mitophagy regulates kidney diseases
Background: Mitophagy is a crucial process involved in maintaining cellular homeostasis by selectively eliminating damaged or surplus mitochondria. As the kidney is an organ with a high dynamic metabolic rate and abundant mitochondria, it is particularly

Mitophagy and Neuroprotection [PDF]
Neurodegenerative diseases are strongly age-related and currently cannot be cured, with a surge of patient numbers in the coming decades in view of the emerging worldwide ageing population, bringing healthcare and socioeconomic challenges. Effective therapies are urgently needed, and are dependent on new aetiological mechanisms.

PINK1-parkin-mediated neuronal mitophagy deficiency in prion disease
A persistent accumulation of damaged mitochondria is part of prion disease pathogenesis. Normally, damaged mitochondria are cleared via a major pathway that involves the E3 ubiquitin ligase parkin and PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) that together initiate ...

Mitophagy in Human Diseases [PDF]
Mitophagy is a selective autophagic process, essential for cellular homeostasis, that eliminates dysfunctional mitochondria. Activated by inner membrane depolarization, it plays an important role during development and is fundamental in highly differentiated post-mitotic cells that are highly dependent on aerobic metabolism, such as neurons, muscle ...

Mitophagy Transcriptome: Mechanistic Insights into Polyphenol‐Mediated Mitophagy [PDF]
Mitochondria are important bioenergetic and signalling hubs critical for myriad cellular functions and homeostasis. Dysfunction in mitochondria is a central theme in aging and diseases. Mitophagy, a process whereby damaged mitochondria are selectively removed by autophagy, plays a key homeostatic role in mitochondrial quality control.
