Enhanced Mitophagy Activity in Prion-Infected Cultured Cells and Prion-Infected Experimental Mice via a Pink1/Parkin-Dependent Mitophagy Pathway
12 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Mitophagy is an important process for removing damaged mitochondria in cells, the dysfunction of which has been directly linked to an increasing number of neurodegenerative disorders. However, the details of mitophagy in prion diseases still need to be deeply explored. In this study, we identified more autophagosomes and large swelling mitochondria structures in the prion-infected cultured cell line SMB-S15 by...
