Mitochondrial dynamics–fusion, fission, movement, and mitophagy–in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]

, 2009
Neurons are metabolically active cells with high energy demands at locations distant from the cell body. As a result, these cells are particularly dependent on mitochondrial function, as reflected by the observation that diseases of mitochondrial ...

Parkin-independent mitophagy controls chemotherapeutic response in cancer cells [PDF]

, 2017
Mitophagy is an evolutionarily conserved process that selectively targets impaired mitochondria for degradation. Defects in mitophagy are often associated with diverse pathologies, including cancer.

Pink1, the first ubiquitin kinase [PDF]

The EMBO Journal, 2014
Pink1 and Parkin, identified through studies of hereditary early onset Parkinson's disease, are involved in mitochondria quality control. Parkin E3 ubiquitin ligase activity is activated by Pink1 kinase activity, although the mechanism is still elusive. Three recent reports uncover a surprising mechanism in which Pink1 directly phosphorylates ubiquitin

Pink1 and Parkin regulate Drosophila intestinal stem cell proliferation during stress and aging. [PDF]

, 2017
Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) maintain the midgut epithelium in Drosophila melanogaster Proper cellular turnover and tissue function rely on tightly regulated rates of ISC division and appropriate differentiation of daughter cells.

PINK1 mutations and parkinsonism [PDF]

Neurology, 2008
PINK1 loss-of-function causes recessive, early-onset parkinsonism. In Tunisia there is a high rate of consanguineous marriage but PINK1 carrier frequency and disease prevalence have yet to be assessed.The frequency of PINK1 mutations in familial parkinsonism, community-based patients with idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD) (non-familial PD), and control

HIF1α-dependent mitophagy facilitates cardiomyoblast differentiation [PDF]

, 2020
Mitophagy is thought to play a key role in eliminating damaged mitochondria, with diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration exhibiting defects in this process.

PINK1, cancer and neurodegeneration

Oncoscience, 2016
Cancer and neurodegeneration are two age-related diseases that arise from aberrant signaling in similar cellular systems, those that balance survival and death. Thus, deregulated molecular processes such as DNA damage repair, intracellular energy balance, and key signal transduction systems, including the PI3-kinase/Akt axis can promote tumorigenesis ...

Broad activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by Parkin is critical for mitophagy [PDF]

, 2011
Parkin, an E3 ubiquitin ligase implicated in Parkinson's disease, promotes degradation of dysfunctional mitochondria by autophagy. Using proteomic and cellular approaches, we show that upon translocation to mitochondria, Parkin activates the ubiquitin ...

Sam50 Regulates PINK1-Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy by Controlling PINK1 Stability and Mitochondrial Morphology [PDF]

Cell Reports, 2018
PINK1 and Parkin mediate mitophagy, the cellular process that clears dysfunctional mitochondria. Mitophagy is regulated by mitochondrial dynamics, but the molecules linking these two processes remain poorly understood. Here, we show that Sam50, the core component of the sorting and assembly machinery (SAM), is a critical regulator of mitochondrial ...
