SESN2/sestrin2 suppresses sepsis by inducing mitophagy and inhibiting NLRP3 activation in macrophages

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
It is demonstrated that SESN2 (sestrin 2), known as stress-inducible protein, suppresses prolonged NLRP3 inflammasome activation by clearance of damaged mitochondria through inducing mitophagy in macrophages, defining a unique regulatory mechanism of mitophagic activation for immunological homeostasis that protects the host from sepsis.
Abstract
Proper regulation of mitophagy for mitochondrial homeostasis is important in various inflammatory diseases. However, the precise mechanisms by which mitophagy is activated to regulate inflammatory ...

Regulation of Inflammasome by Autophagy.

TL;DR: In recent years, it becomes apparent that autophagy, a cellular machinery essential for the recycling of intracellular components and maintenance of cellular homeostasis, acts as a key player in the activation and regulation of inflammasome, and ameliorates symptoms of inflammatory diseases.

AMPK and mTOR regulate autophagy through direct phosphorylation of Ulk1

TL;DR: A molecular mechanism for regulation of the mammalian autophagy-initiating kinase Ulk1, a homologue of yeast ATG1, is demonstrated and a signalling mechanism for UlK1 regulation and autophagic induction in response to nutrient signalling is revealed.

A role for mitochondria in NLRP3 inflammasome activation

TL;DR: It is shown that mitophagy/autophagy blockade leads to the accumulation of damaged, ROS-generating mitochondria, and this in turn activates the NLRP3 inflammasome, and may explain the frequent association of mitochondrial damage with inflammatory diseases.

Parkin is recruited selectively to impaired mitochondria and promotes their autophagy

TL;DR: It is shown that Parkin is selectively recruited to dysfunctional mitochondria with low membrane potential in mammalian cells and this recruitment promotes autophagy of damaged mitochondria and implicate a failure to eliminate dysfunctional mitochondira in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease.

Mechanisms of mitophagy

TL;DR: Mitophagy, the specific autophagic elimination of mitochondria, has been identified in yeast, and in mammals during red blood cell differentiation, mediated by NIP3-like protein X (NIX; also known as BNIP3L).
