Mitochondria‐Localized Nestin Protects Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Senescence by Maintaining Cristae Structure and Function

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nestin localizes to the mitochondrial IMS through its MTS and the TOM20 import machinery. Within the mitochondria, Nestin interacts with Mic60 via its C‐terminal Tail3 domain. Loss of mitochondrial Nestin disrupts cristae architecture, leading to mitochondrial swelling, bioenergetic dysfunction, and ultimately the senescence of hMSCs.

Acetylation of the Mitochondrial Chaperone GRP75 Governs ER‐Mitochondrial Calcium Homeostasis and Hepatocyte Insulin Resistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Overnutrition exacerbates insulin resistance (IR) and is linked to excessive mitochondrial protein acetylation. However, it remains unclear whether and how mitochondrial protein acetylation influences IR. GCN5L1‐dependent downregulation of GRP75 acetylation at K567/612 consequently enhances ER‐mitochondrial calcium flux and induces ER stress.

Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Exacerbates the Advancement of Renal Fibrosis by Modulating Renal CCR2+PIRB+ Macrophages Through the ANGPTL8/PIRB/ALOX5AP Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The ANGPTL8/PIRB/ALOX5AP axis mediates liver‐kidney crosstalk. Hepatocytes secrete ANGPTL8, which binds to CCR2+PIRB+ macrophages in the kidneys, affecting the expression of ALOX5AP and enhancing the activation of these macrophages. Activated cells produce TGF‐β, IL‐6, and IL‐23, driving Th17 activation and promote the formation of myofibroblasts ...
