Emerging views of mitophagy in immunity and autoimmune diseases

open access: yesAutophagy, 2020
Mitophagy is a vital form of autophagy for selective removal of dysfunctional or redundant mitochondria. Accumulating evidence implicates elimination of dysfunctional mitochondria as a powerful means employed by autophagy to keep the immune system in ...

Mitophagy in Alzheimer’s disease: Molecular defects and therapeutic approaches

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2022
Mitochondrial dysfunctions are central players in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In addition, impairments in mitophagy, the process of selective mitochondrial degradation by autophagy leading to a gradual accumulation of defective mitochondria, have also been

Exploring mitophagy levels in Drosophila Malpighian tubules unveils the pivotal role of mitophagy in kidney function and diabetic kidney disease

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine
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.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Evaluating mitophagy in embryonic stem cells by using fluorescence-based imaging

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs), which are characterized by the capacity for self-renewal and pluripotency, hold great promise for regenerative medicine. Increasing evidence points to the essential role of mitophagy in pluripotency regulation.

Optineurin functions for optimal immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Optineurin (OPTN) was identified 20 years ago in a yeast-two-hybrid screen with a viral protein known to inhibit the cytolytic effects of tumor necrosis factor.

PINK1-PRKN mediated mitophagy: differences between in vitro and in vivo models

open access: yesAutophagy, 2022
Mitophagy is a key intracellular process that selectively removes damaged mitochondria to prevent their accumulation that can cause neuronal degeneration. During mitophagy, PINK1 (PTEN induced kinase 1), a serine/threonine kinase, works with PRKN/parkin,

Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Mitophagy in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]

open access: yesJichu yixue yu linchuang
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.

Morphine-induced microglial immunosuppression via activation of insufficient mitophagy regulated by NLRX1

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background Chronic morphine exposure induces immunosuppression in the peripheral and central nervous system, resulting in susceptibility of patients to invading pathogens.
