Mitophagy associated self-degradation of phosphorylated MAP4 guarantees the migration and proliferation responses of keratinocytes to hypoxia.

ABSTRACT: Our previous study has announced that phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein 4 (p-MAP4) accelerated keratinocytes migration and proliferation under hypoxia through depolymerizing microtubules. However, p-MAP4 should exhibit inhibitory effects on wound healing, for it also impaired mitochondria. Thus, figuring out the outcome of p-MAP4 after it impaired mitochondria and how the outcome influenced wound healing were far-reaching significance. Herein, the results revealed that p-MAP4 might undergo self-degradation through autophagy in hypoxic keratinocytes. Next, p-MAP4 activated mitophagy which was unobstructed and was also the principal pathway of its self-degradation triggered by hypoxia. Moreover, both Bcl-2 homology 3 (BH3) and LC3 interacting region (LIR) domains had been verifie
