| Abstract |
Mitochondria are essential for ATP production, calcium buffering, and apoptotic signaling, with mitophagy playing a critical role in removing dysfunctional mitochondria. This study demonstrates that PINK1-dependent mitophagy occurs more rapidly and is less spatially restricted in astrocytes compared to neurons. We identified hexokinase 2 (HK2) as a key regulator of mitophagy in astrocytes, forming a glucose-dependent complex with PINK1 in response to mitochondrial damage. Additionally, exposure to neuroinflammatory stimuli enhances PINK1/HK2-dependent mitophagy, providing neuroprotection. These findings contribute to our understanding of mitophagy mechanisms in astrocytes and underscore the importance of PINK1 in cellular health and function within the context of neurodegenerative diseases.
