Article Synopsis
  • - Mitochondria fission and mitophagy are essential for cell health and contribute significantly to cancer development, so understanding these processes could lead to better cancer therapies.
  • - Cofilin, an actin-depolymerizing factor, plays a vital role in regulating mitochondrial fission and mitophagy, but its exact mechanisms are not well-understood.
  • - Research shows that knocking down cofilin reduces, while overexpressing it enhances mitochondrial fission and mitophagy, linking its effects to mitochondrial proteases and actin dynamics during stress treatments.

Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, and non-small-cell lung carcinoma is responsible for almost 80% of lung cancer-related deaths. In recent years, lung cancer has shown increasing incidence but poor prognosis, and many studies have demonstrated that microRNAs play crucial roles in the development of lung carcinoma and chemoresistance. This study investigated the role of miR-339-5p involvement in lung carcinoma cell lines and chemoresistance to Taxol.
