Coordination of mitochondrial and lysosomal homeostasis mitigates muscle atrophy during aging

 “our data allow us to propose a new adaptive mechanism involving the mitophagy protein BNIP3, which links mitochondrial and lysosomal homeostasis with inflammation and is key to maintaining muscle health during aging.”
