Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins
Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...

PPTC7 antagonizes mitophagy by promoting BNIP3 and NIX degradation via SCFFBXL4
Mitophagy must be carefully regulated to ensure that cells maintain appropriate numbers of functional mitochondria. The SCFFBXL4 ubiquitin ligase complex suppresses mitophagy by controlling the degradation of BNIP3 and NIX mitophagy receptors, and FBXL4 ...

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.

Epigenetic Reactivation of TNFRSF19 Suppresses Mitophagy and Sensitizes Triple-Negative Breast Cancer to Doxorubicin. [PDF]
TNFRSF19 is an epigenetically silenced regulator of mitophagy in triple‐negative breast cancer. TNFRSF19 deficiency activates the TGFBR1–SMAD3–PINK1 axis to promote mitophagy and confer doxorubicin resistance, whereas decitabine‐mediated restoration of TNFRSF19 suppresses mitophagy and enhances doxorubicin sensitivity, revealing a targetable epigenetic–

Balanced CoQ6 biosynthesis is required for lifespan and mitophagy in yeast
Coenzyme Q is an essential lipid with redox capacity that is present in all organisms. In yeast its biosynthesis depends on a multiprotein complex in which Coq7 protein has both catalytic and regulatory functions.

The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Increased reactive oxygen species levels in the mitochondrial matrix can induce Parkin-dependent mitophagy, which selectively degrades dysfunctional mitochondria via the autolysosome pathway. Phosphorylated mitofusin-2 (MFN2), a receptor of parkin RBR E3

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.
