Vanasco et al. analyzed mitochondrial dynamics and function during selective autophagy in pancreatic acinar cells during mild experimental AP in rats and cell models, by using the pMITO-RFP-GFP plasmid to label the autophagic degradation of mitochondria and assessing the expression and redistribution of the ubiquitin ligase PARK1. This evidence concerns the gene SNCA and alkaline phosphatase measurement.
