In contrast, BCAP31 overexpression promoted phosphorylation of PINK1 and PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy, thus blocking the mROS/ROS/NF-κB pathway, favoring a protective condition that ultimately led to the inhibition of AECII apoptosis and inflammatory response in LPS-induced ALI. The gene discussed is PINK1; the disease is acute respiratory distress syndrome.
