Contents: Parkinson's disease (PD) and mitophagy -- Pathogenic mutations in the genes associated with autosomal recessive PD interfere with the mitophagy pathway -- Mitophagy is the selective degradation of damaged mitochondria by autophagy -- Mitophagy allows optimal cellular energy production while it avoids toxic accumulation of damaged mitochondria in neurons.
