This leads to inadequate mitochondrial redistribution, an elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, severely disrupted spindle/chromosome organization, and abnormal mitophagy. Furthermore, we noted that elevated Pink1 expression significantly compromises the developmental ability of the mouse early embryo. In addition, we revealed that RAB8A activity is a key factor for PINK1-mediated mitophagy in old oocytes and active guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-bound state RAB8A could partially rescue the quality of aged oocytes by promoting the formation of autolysosome.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Collectively, our data display critical functions for PINK1 in meiotic progression and mitochondrial homeostasis in murine oocytes, and RAB8A activity is required for PINK1-mediated mitophagy in senescent oocytes.</p>","PeriodicalId":49095,"journal":{"name":"Cell and Bioscience","volume":"15 1","pages":"126"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12465932/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145179487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
