Autophagy is a cellular degradative pathway that plays diverse roles in maintaining cellular
homeostasis. Cellular stress caused by starvation, organelle damage, or proteotoxic …

Myocardial infarction (MI) is the irreversible death of cardiomyocyte secondary to prolonged
lack of oxygen or fresh blood supply. Historically considered as merely cardiomyocyte …

Mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in aging and multiple degenerative diseases, including
intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) and osteoarthritis (OA). Thus, the maintenance of …

Heart failure (HF) is the most rapidly growing cardiovascular health burden worldwide. HF
can be classified into three groups based on the percentage of the ejection fraction (EF) …

Background: Cardiac dysfunction is a major component of sepsis-induced multiorgan failure
in critical care units. Changes in cardiac autophagy and its role during sepsis pathogenesis …

In the past years, we have learnt that tumors co-evolve with their microenvironment, and that
the active interaction between cancer cells and stromal cells plays a pivotal role in cancer …

Background. Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived exosomes (MSC‐exos) have been recognized
as a promising therapeutic strategy for neonatal hypoxic‐ischemic brain damage (HIBD) …

The process of mitochondrial dynamics is emerging as a core player in cardiovascular
homeostasis. This process refers to the co‐ordinated cycles of biogenesis, fusion, fission …

Mitochondria serve numerous critical cellular functions, rapidly responding to extracellular
stimuli and cellular demands while dynamically communicating with other organelles …

Abstract Intracellular calcium (Ca 2+) is a critical coordinator of various aspects of cellular
physiology. It is increasingly apparent that changes in cellular Ca 2+ dynamics contribute to …
