Background We have reported that polydatin (PD) alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction in rat models of sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SI-AKI), but the mechanism is not well understood.

Concurrent mitochondrial elimination and autophagy in many systems has led to the proposal that autophagy is the main mechanism of mitochondrial turnover during development and under pathological conditions. The term mitophagy was coined to describe the selective removal of mitochondria by autophagy but the process itself is still contentious.

Receptor-mediated mitophagy [PDF]
Mitochondria are essential organelles that supply ATP through oxidative phosphorylation to maintain cellular homeostasis. Extrinsic or intrinsic agents can impair mitochondria, and these impaired mitochondria can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) as byproducts, inducing cellular damage and cell death.

Measuring In Vivo Mitophagy [PDF]
Alterations in mitophagy have been increasingly linked to aging and age-related diseases. There are, however, no convenient methods to analyze mitophagy in vivo. Here, we describe a transgenic mouse model in which we expressed a mitochondrial-targeted form of the fluorescent reporter Keima (mt-Keima). Keima is a coral-derived protein that exhibits both

Metabolic control of mitophagy
AbstractMitochondrial dysfunction is a major hallmark of ageing and related chronic disorders. Controlled removal of damaged mitochondria by the autophagic machinery, a process known as mitophagy, is vital for mitochondrial homeostasis and cell survival.

Mitophagy in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]
In case of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI), mitophagy is induced by multiple pathways such as PINK1/Parkin and mitophagy receptor, which is closely related to mitochondrial dynamic related protein. Mitophagy is a double-edged sword.

Autophagy and mitophagy in hepatocarcinogenesis [PDF]
Autophagy is required for benign hepatic tumors to progress into malignant hepatocellular carcinoma. In our recent studies, we found that autophagy, or more specifically mitophagy, was required to suppress TP53 and induce the expression of the transcription factor NANOG to maintain hepatic cancer stem cells and promote hepatocarcinogenesis.

Mitophagy in Huntington's disease
Huntington's disease (HD), as well as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease, belong to a group of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by common features, such as the progressive loss of neurons and the presence of pathogenic forms of misfolded protein aggregates.

Mitophagy has been implicated in kidney function and related diseases. However, a direct analysis of mitophagy in kidney models, including disease models, remains notably lacking.

FUNDC1-mediated mitophagy and HIF1α activation drives pulmonary hypertension during hypoxia
Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive disease characterized by hyper-proliferation of pulmonary vascular cells including pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) and can lead to right heart failure and early death.
