Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that often results in severe brain injury, primarily due to excessive inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction. This study aims to investigate the neuroprotective effects of Apelin-13, a bioactive peptide, in a rat model of sepsis-induced brain injury (SBI). Specifically, we examined the role of Apelin-13 in regulating mitophagy through the phosphatase and tensin homolog-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin pathway and its impact on nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis and oxidative stress.

Introduction: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex condition characterized by metabolic dysfunction and myocardial lipotoxicity. The roles of PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) and peroxiredoxin-2 (Prdx2) in HFpEF pathogenesis remain unclear.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the interaction between PINK1 and Prdx2 to mitigate cardiac diastolic dysfunction in HFpEF.

Bone defect repair remains a great challenge in the field of orthopedics. Human body essential trace element such as copper is essential for bone regeneration, but how to use it in bone defects and the underlying its mechanisms of promoting bone formation need to be further explored. In this study, by doping copper into mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (Cu-MBGNs), we unveil a previously unidentified role of copper in facilitating osteoblast mitophagy and mitochondrial dynamics, which enhance amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) release and subsequent biomineralization, ultimately accelerating the process of bone regeneration.

Resveratrol (RES), a natural polyphenolic compound, has garnered significant attention for its therapeutic potential in various pathological conditions. This review explores how RES modulates mitophagy-the selective autophagic degradation of mitochondria essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. RES promotes the initiation and execution of mitophagy by enhancing PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitochondrial clearance, reducing reactive oxygen species production, and mitigating apoptosis, thereby preserving mitochondrial integrity.
