VEGFR3 mitigates hypertensive nephropathy by enhancing mitophagy via regulating crotonylation of HSPA1L by Qiuwen Wu, Jiaxin Fu, Bin Zhu, Wei Meng, Jingyi Ma, Ying Lv, Wenqi Zhao, Fan Wang, Jingjin Liu, Yongshun Wang, Cong Peng, Shuo Zhang

“…Finally, the protective effect of VEGFR3 on mitophagy and oxidative stress were attenuated by transfection K130 (HSPA1L-K130R) mutant plasmid in vivo and in vitro. These findings indicated that VEGFR3 alleviated oxidative stress by promoting PARKIN-dependent mitophagy pathway via regulating HSPA1L crotonylation at K130 site in Ang II-induced PTCs, which provided a mechanistic basis for the therapeutic target in hypertensive renal injury.…”
