Mitofusin2, a rising star in acute‐on‐chronic liver failure, triggers macroautophagy via the mTOR signalling pathway

Acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a life‐threatening syndrome with poor prognosis. Several studies have begun to prove that mitochondria play a crucial role in liver failure. Mitofusin2 (Mfn2) plays a key role in maintaining the integrity of mitochondrial morphology and function. However, the role and underlying mechanisms of Mfn2 on cell autophagy of ACLF remain unclear. Our aim was to explore the effect of Mfn2 on several biological...
