The mitochondrial UPR: mechanisms, physiological functions and implications in ageing.
Nature reviews. Molecular cell biology - 1 Feb 2018
Shpilka Tomer, Haynes Cole M
Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial function declines during ageing owing to the accumulation of deleterious mitochondrial genomes and damage resulting from the localized generation of reactive oxygen species, both of which are often exacerbated in diseases such as Parkinson disease. Cells have several mechanisms to assess mitochondrial function and activate a transcriptional response known as the mitochondrial unfolded protein...
