PINK1 attenuates mtDNA release in alveolar epithelial cells and TLR9 mediated profibrotic responses.
We have previously shown that endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) represses the PTEN inducible kinase 1 (PINK1) in lung type II alveolar epithelial cells (AECII) reducing mitophagy and increasing the susceptibility to lung fibrosis. Although increased circulating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has b...
