AI Article Synopsis
- Acute kidney disease (AKD) involves several harmful processes, particularly affecting the mitochondria in kidney cells.
- *Maintaining mitochondrial health is essential for kidney function, as it regulates energy production, growth, and the recycling of damaged mitochondria.
- *The review highlights how mitochondrial quality control is impaired in AKD and suggests that understanding these mechanisms could lead to new treatment options.
Article Abstract
Acute kidney disease (AKD) involves multiple pathogenic mechanisms, including maladaptive repair of renal cells that are rich in mitochondria. Maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis and quality control is crucial for normal kidney function. Mitochondrial quality control serves to maintain mitochondrial function under various conditions, including mitochondrial bioenergetics, mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics (fusion and fission) and mitophagy. To date, increasing evidence indicates that mitochondrial quality control is disrupted when acute kidney disease develops. This review describes the mechanisms of mitochondria quality control in acute kidney disease, aiming to provide clues to help design new clinical treatments.
