PINK1/Parkin

PTEN-induced kinase 1/Parkin

PINK1 (PTEN-induced kinase 1) is a serine/threonine protein kinase whose activity is affected by mitochondrial membrane potential. PINK1 accumulates on the outer damaged mitochondrial membrane and activates PARKIN through phosphorylation. PARKIN is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that ubiquitinates mitochondrial outer membrane proteins, recruits autophagy-related proteins such as OPTN, NDP52, and initiates mitophagy. PINK1/Parkin regulates mitochondrial homeostasis, selectively removes damaged or redundant mitochondria, thereby maintaining and optimizing the mitochondrial network, regulating the energy metabolism, reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory responses. PINK1/Parkin dysfunction could lead to Parkinson's disease (PD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Huntington's disease (HD), or glaucoma[1][2].

    Matrine (Standard) is the analytical standard of Matrine. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Matrine (Matridin-15-one) is an alkaloid found in plants from the Sophora genus that can act as a kappa opioid receptor and u-receptor agonist. Matrine has a variety of pharmacological effects, including anti-cancer, anti-oxidative stress, anti-inflammation and anti-apoptosis effects. Matrine is potential in the research of disease like human non-small cell lung cancer, hepatoma, papillary thyroid cancer and acute kidney injury (AKI).

  • HY-176568
    LCL768
    Activator
    LCL768 is a ceramide analog. LCL768 attenuates PARKIN succination to promote PARKIN activation and mitophagy. LCL768 induces CerS1-mediated endogenous C18-ceramide accumulation in mitochondria to mediate mitophagy, which is dependent on DRP1 activation via nitrosylation at C644. LCL768 alters mitochondrial metabolism, resulting in fumarate depletion and leading to tumor suppression. LCL768 improves sensorimotor defects in neurodegenerative diseases like ALS.
