MCU Upregulation Overactivates Mitophagy by Promoting VDAC1 Dimerization and Ubiquitination in the Hepatotoxicity of Cadmium

Abstract Cadmium (Cd) is a high‐risk pathogenic toxin for hepatic diseases. Excessive mitophagy is a hallmark in Cd‐induced hepatotoxicity. However, the underlying mechanism remains obscure. Mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) is a key regulator for mitochondrial and cellular homeostasis. Here, Cd...
