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.

Defective mitochondrial ISCs biogenesis switches on IRP1 to fine tune selective mitophagy
Both iron metabolism and mitophagy, a selective mitochondrial degradation process via autolysosomal pathway, are fundamental for the cellular well-being.

Mitophagy in neurodegeneration and aging [PDF]
Macroautophagy is a cellular catabolic process that involves the sequestration of cytoplasmic constituents into double-membrane vesicles known as autophagosomes, which subsequently fuse with lysosomes, where they deliver their cargo for degradation. The main physiological role of autophagy is to recycle intracellular components, under conditions of ...

Mitophagy in Antiviral Immunity [PDF]
Mitochondria are important organelles whose primary function is energy production; in addition, they serve as signaling platforms for apoptosis and antiviral immunity. The central role of mitochondria in oxidative phosphorylation and apoptosis requires their quality to be tightly regulated.

TSPO interacts with VDAC1 and triggers a ROS-mediated inhibition of mitochondrial quality control [PDF]
The 18-kDa TSPO (translocator protein) localizes on the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) and participates in cholesterol transport. Here, we report that TSPO inhibits mitochondrial autophagy downstream of the PINK1-PARK2 pathway, preventing essential ...

Unconventional Initiation of PINK1/Parkin Mitophagy by Optineurin
Cargo sequestration is a fundamental step of selective autophagy in which cells generate a double membrane structure termed an autophagosome on the surface of cargoes.

Chronic heart failure is characterized by altered mitochondrial function and structure in circulating leucocytes [PDF]
Oxidative stress is currently viewed as a key factor in the genesis and progression of Heart Failure (HF). The aim of this study was to characterize the mitochondrial changes linked to oxidative stress generation in circulating peripheral blood ...

Mitophagy curtails cytosolic mtDNA-dependent activation of cGAS/STING inflammation during aging
Dysregulated autophagy and mitochondrial function are two well-described hallmarks of aging. Here, the authors describe an unexpected age-associated upregulation of mitophagy in response to neuroinflammation triggered by leaked mtDNA.

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.
