Mitophagy for cardioprotection
Mitochondrial function is maintained by several strictly coordinated mechanisms, collectively termed mitochondrial quality control mechanisms, including fusion and fission, degradation, and biogenesis.

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 ...

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

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 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.

Cellular mitophagy: Mechanism, roles in diseases and small molecule pharmacological regulation
Cellular mitophagy means that cells selectively wrap and degrade damaged mitochondria through an autophagy mechanism, thus maintaining mitochondria and intracellular homeostasis.

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 ...

Molecular mechanisms and physiological functions of mitophagy
Degradation of mitochondria via a selective form of autophagy, named mitophagy, is a fundamental mechanism conserved from yeast to humans that regulates mitochondrial quality and quantity control.
