Possible relationship between mitochondrial changes and oxidative stress under low dose-rate irradiation

open access: yesRedox Report, 2021
Objectives: High dose-rate ionizing radiation (IR) causes severe DSB damage, as well as reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and oxidative stress.

PINK1-Interacting Proteins: Proteomic Analysis of Overexpressed PINK1 [PDF]

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, 2011
Recent publications suggest that the Parkinson's disease- (PD-) related PINK1/Parkin pathway promotes elimination of dysfunctional mitochondria by autophagy. We used tandem affinity purification (TAP), SDS-PAGE, and mass spectrometry as a first step towards identification of possible substrates for PINK1.

PINK1/Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy Plays a Protective Role in Albumin Overload-Induced Renal Tubular Cell Injury

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2022
Background: Proteinuria is an important symptom of chronic kidney disease irrespective of its initial pathogenesis. Mitochondrial dysfunction is an early pathophysiological event in proteinuria-induced tubular damage. Mitophagy, the selective degradation

PINK1 deficiency in β-cells increases basal insulin secretion and improves glucose tolerance in mice [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2014
The Parkinson's disease (PD) gene, PARK6, encodes the PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) mitochondrial kinase, which provides protection against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. Given the link between glucose metabolism, mitochondrial function and

PINK1 in mitochondrial function [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
Rare, inherited mutations causing familial forms of Parkinson's disease (PD) have provided much insight into some of the molecular mechanisms that underlie both the genetic and sporadic forms of the disease. The role of mitochondria in sporadic PD has been debated for a little over 20 years, since the identification of complex I deficiency in the ...

Parkin Blushed by PINK1 [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2006
Mutations in the PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) are a common cause of autosomal recessive Parkinson's disease. In a recent issue of Nature, two independent reports by and show that loss of Drosophila PINK1 leads to defects in mitochondrial function resulting in male sterility, apoptotic muscle degeneration, and minor loss of dopamine neurons ...

Role of Cleaved PINK1 in Neuronal Development, Synaptogenesis, and Plasticity: Implications for Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Consistent with this concept, loss of function mutations in the serine/threonine kinase- PINK1 (PTEN-induced putative kinase-1) causes autosomal recessive

Phosphorylation of Parkin at Serine65 is essential for activation: elaboration of a Miro1 substrate-based assay of Parkin E3 ligase activity [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2014
Mutations in PINK1 and Parkin are associated with early-onset Parkinson's disease. We recently discovered that PINK1 phosphorylates Parkin at serine65 (Ser65) within its Ubl domain, leading to its activation in a substrate-free activity assay.

Dysregulated Interorganellar Crosstalk of Mitochondria in the Pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesCells, 2020
The pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, is complex and involves the impairment of crucial intracellular physiological processes.

The PINK1/Parkin pathway: a mitochondrial quality control system? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Significant insight into the mechanisms that contribute to dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson disease has been gained from the analysis of genes linked to rare heritable forms of parkinsonism such as PINK1 and parkin, loss-of-function mutations ...
