The mitochondria-targeted antioxidant MitoQ ameliorates inorganic arsenic-induced DCs/Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg differentiation partially by activating PINK1-mediated mitophagy in murine liver

This study has provided new insights on the immunotoxicity of inorganic arsenic and established a foundation for exploring preventive and therapeutic strategies targeting PINK1-mediated mitophagy in acute liver injury. Consequently, the application of mitochondrial antioxidant MitoQ may offer a promising treatment for the metalloid-induced acute liver injury.PMID:38653026 | DOI:10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116350
