The role of mitophagy in cognitive impairment in aluminum-exposed rats
ObjectiveTo observe the effects of subchronic aluminum exposure on the expression of PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1)/E3 ubiquitin ligase (Parkin) pathway microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B (LC3B), selective autophagy receptor protein 62 (P62),

Gerontoxanthone I and Macluraxanthone Induce Mitophagy and Attenuate Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
Mitophagy is a crucial process in controlling mitochondrial biogenesis. Balancing mitophagy and mitochondrial functions is required for maintaining cellular homeostasis.

This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy modulates cadmium-induced apoptosis in rat cerebral cortical neurons
Cadmium is a persistent environmental pollutant whose neurotoxicity is of serious concern. Mitochondrial dysfunction and its mediated mitophagy and apoptosis are considered key events in Cd-induced neurological pathologies, but the exact molecular ...
