ApoM maintains cellular homeostasis between mitophagy and apoptosis by affecting the stability of Nnt mRNA through the Zic3-ApoM-Elavl2-Nnt axis during neural tube closure by Qing Liu, Dan Liu, Yuejiao Wang, Xiaowei Wei, Wei Ma, Hui Gu, Shanshan Jia, Yiwen He, Wenting Luo, Songying Cao, Zhonghua Yang, Anhua Wu, Zhengwei Yuan

“…We demonstrated that ApoM expression was reduced in the spinal cord samples of rat models and human fetuses with NTDs respectively. Specifically, lack of ApoM resulted in reduced cytosolic localization of Elavl2 and caused Nnt mRNA degradation, which further led to impaired cell homeostasis by suppressing PINK1-PRKN-mediated mitophagy and promoting apoptosis and subsequent NTDs formation. …”
