Emerging role of mitophagy in human diseases and physiology
Mitophagy is a process of selective removal of damaged or unnecessary mitochondria using autophagic machinery. Mitophagy plays an essential role in maintaining mitochondrial quality control and homeostasis. Mitochondrial dysfunctions and defective mitophagy in neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, and metabolic diseases indicate a close link between human disease and mitophagy. Furthermore, recen...
متن کاملNeuronal Mitophagy in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Neuronal homeostasis depends on the proper functioning of different quality control systems. All intracellular components are subjected to continuous turnover through the coordinated synthesis, degradation and recycling of their constituent elements. Autophagy is the catabolic mechanism by which intracellular cytosolic components, including proteins, organelles, aggregates and any other intrace...
متن کاملMultivesicular liposome (DepoFoam) in human diseases
Drug development is a key point in the research of new therapeutic treatments for increasing maximum drug loading and prolonged drug effect. Encapsulation of drugs into multivesicular liposomes (DepoFoam) is a nanotechnology that allow deliver of the active constituent at a sufficient concentration during the entire treatment period. This guarantees the reduction of drug administration frequenc...
متن کاملMitophagy: Basic Mechanism and Potential Role in Kidney Diseases
Background: Mitochondria play fundamental roles in cellular metabolism, signaling, and viability. Disruption of mitochondria not only leads to dysfunction of the organelles but also activates mechanisms of cell injury and death, contributing to the pathogenesis of various diseases. Summary: Removal of damaged mitochondria is therefore crucial for cellular homeostasis and survival. Mitophagy, th...
متن کاملTargeting mitochondrial dysfunction in lung diseases: emphasis on mitophagy
During mild stressful conditions, cells activate a multitude of mechanisms in an attempt to repair or re-establish homeostasis. One such mechanism is autophagic degradation of mitochondria or mitophagy to dispose damaged mitochondria. However, if stress persists beyond recovery then dysfunctional mitochondria can ignite cell death. This review article summarizes recent studies highlighting the ...
