#pexophagy
USP2 inhibition destabilizes STUB1 to suppress pathological #Pexophagy in PEX1-deficient models, restoring peroxisome abundance while mitigating metabolic abnormalities, neuro-axonal pathology, and motor dysfunction.

🧠 Why does this matter?
Peroxisomes regulate lipid metabolism & ROS detox, and their dysfunction is linked to neurodegeneration & Zellweger spectrum disorders.

Understanding in vivo pexophagy mechanisms provides new insights into organelle homeostasis & disease.

📢 New Publication!
Excited to share my latest research in Open Biology! @royalsocietypublishing.org

We developed live Drosophila models to track whole organism and neuronal pexophagy - the selective autophagy of peroxisomes - in vivo.

#InterferonFriendOrFoe?! Joe Sun, Xiaoqin Wei &co show @science.org that lung macrophage peroxisomes instruct repair programs after virus infections favoring AT2 cell renewal & recovery! IFNgamma drives pexophagy, increasing mitochondrial ROS & activating inflammasomes driving KRT8 cells & fibrosis!
Macrophage peroxisomes guide alveolar regeneration and limit SARS-CoV-2 tissue sequelae
Peroxisomes are vital but often overlooked metabolic organelles. We found that excessive interferon signaling remodeled macrophage peroxisomes. This loss of peroxisomes impaired inflammation resolutio...

As my #NewPI journey is starting I re-share my latest publication: 👉We uncovered a #phosphate #metabolite sensor, binding and regulating the #autophagy Atg1/ULK1 initiation complex to regulate #pexophagy in response to
phosphate availability. nature.com/articles/s41556-024-01348-4
A metabolite sensor subunit of the Atg1/ULK complex regulates selective autophagy - Nature Cell Biology
Gross et al. show that Atg13 and Atg17 are dispensable for pexophagy during phosphate starvation in yeast. Instead, the metabolite sensor Pho81 binds the Atg1 kinase complex via Atg11 to promote Atg11...
