Mitofusin-2 boosts innate immunity through the maintenance of aerobic glycolysis and activation of xenophagy in mice
Silwal, Kim et al. show that mitofusin-2 (MFN2), a mitochondrial fusion protein, promotes innate host defense through coordinated orchestration of immunometabolism and xenophagy via HIF-1α in macrophages during bacterial infection. This study provides insights into how mitochondria-shaping protein i...

| Sumario: | Silwal, Kim et al. show that mitofusin-2 (MFN2), a mitochondrial fusion protein, promotes innate host defense through coordinated orchestration of immunometabolism and xenophagy via HIF-1α in macrophages during bacterial infection. This study provides insights into how mitochondria-shaping protein is involved in host defense against intracellular bacterial infection. |
