The role of DJ-1 in enhancing mitochondrial quality control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston UniversityDJ-1 is a cytosolic sensor for oxidative damage which acts on the Mitochondria. It works to curb the negative effects of high membrane potential in mitochondria, but the mechanism of action is still uncertain.

The Aging Heart: Mitophagy at the Center of Rejuvenation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Aging is associated with structural and functional changes in the heart and is a major risk factor in developing cardiovascular disease. Many recent studies have focused on increasing our understanding of the basis of aging at the cellular and molecular ...

NRF2 Regulates PINK1 Expression under Oxidative Stress Conditions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Mutations of the PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) gene are a cause of autosomal recessive forms of Parkinson's disease. Recent studies have revealed that PINK1 is an essential factor for controlling mitochondrial quality, and that it protects cells

The yeast complex I equivalent NADH dehydrogenase rescues pink1 mutants.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Pink1 is a mitochondrial kinase involved in Parkinson's disease, and loss of Pink1 function affects mitochondrial morphology via a pathway involving Parkin and components of the mitochondrial remodeling machinery.

Mitochondrial Quality Control in Age-Related Pulmonary Fibrosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is age-related interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology. About 100,000 people in the U.S have IPF, with a 3-year median life expectancy post-diagnosis.

Parkin uses the UPS to ship off dysfunctional mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Parkin is a ubiquitin E3 ligase that is implicated in familial Parkinson disease (PD). Previous studies have established its role in mitophagy, a pathway whereby dysfunctional mitochondria are targeted for autophagic degradation.

Lin28A induces energetic switching to glycolytic metabolism in human embryonic kidney cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Loss of a cell’s capacity to generate sufficient energy for cellular functions is a key hallmark of the ageing process and ultimately leads to a variety of important age-related pathologies such as cancer, Parkinson’s disease and ...

Loss of α-Synuclein Does Not Affect Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in Rodent Neurons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Increased α-synuclein (αsyn) and mitochondrial dysfunction play central roles in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), and lowering αsyn is under intensive investigation as a therapeutic strategy for PD. Increased αsyn levels disrupt mitochondria
