eLife, 2020 Degradation of mitochondria through mitophagy contributes to the maintenance of mitochondrial function. In this study, we identified that Atg43, a mitochondrial outer membrane protein, serves as a mitophagy receptor in the model organism ...

Mitochondrial dynamics–fusion, fission, movement, and mitophagy–in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]
, 2009 Neurons are metabolically active cells with high energy demands at locations distant from the cell body. As a result, these cells are particularly dependent on mitochondrial function, as reflected by the observation that diseases of mitochondrial ...

Autophagy in DNA Damage Response [PDF]
, 2015 DNA damage response (DDR) involves DNA repair, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis, but autophagy is also suggested to play a role in DDR. Autophagy can be activated in response to DNA-damaging agents, but the exact mechanism underlying this activation ...

Blood flow meets mitophagy [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2022 Since its discovery as a mechanosensitive transcription factor in endothelial networks, Klf2’s varying expression levels under different blood flow patterns remained a mystery. In this study, Coon et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202109144) discover a connection between sustained laminar shear stress and mitochondrial flux that ...

Distinct Mechanisms of Pathogenic DJ-1 Mutations in Mitochondrial Quality Control [PDF]
, 2018 The deglycase and chaperone protein DJ-1 is pivotal for cellular oxidative stress responses and mitochondrial quality control. Mutations in PARK7, encoding DJ-1, are associated with early-onset familial Parkinson’s disease and lead to pathological ...

Experimental and Molecular Medicine, 2019 The clearance of activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) by apoptosis is critical for the reversibility of hepatic fibrosis. Mitochondrial homeostasis is regulated by mitophagy, which is an efficient way of clearing injured mitochondria that plays an ...

Depletion of mitochondria in mammalian cells through enforced mitophagy [PDF]
, 2016 Mitochondria are not only the 'powerhouse' of the cell; they are also involved in a multitude of processes that include calcium storage, the cell cycle and cell death.

Mitophagy: Permitted by Prohibitin [PDF]
Current Biology, 2017 Autophagic responses specific for damaged or superfluous mitochondria are crucial for the maintenance of cellular and organismal homeostasis. Recent data demonstrate that components of the inner mitochondrial membrane that are unmasked upon outer membrane permeabilization facilitate the autophagic destruction of the organelle.

Comparisons of ELISA and Western blot assays for detection of autophagy flux [PDF]
, 2017 We analyzed autophagy/mitophagy flux in vitro (C2C12 myotubes) and in vivo (mouse skeletal muscle) following the treatments of autophagy inducers (starvation, rapamycin) and a mitophagy inducer (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, CCCP) using two ...

Signal transducer and activator of transcription-1 localizes to the mitochondria and modulates mitophagy [PDF]
, 2013 The signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) proteins are latent transcription factors that have been shown to be involved in cell proliferation, development, apoptosis, and autophagy. STAT proteins undergo activation by phosphorylation at
