Exploring the role of migrasomes in myocardial injury and repair: A novel mechanism of mitochondrial quality control


A recent study suggests that low-intensity pulsed ultrasound selectively eliminates damaged mitochondria by promoting migrasome formation during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, thereby enhancing mitochondrial quality control and reducing cardiomyocyte damage.1 This discovery first proposes the specific role and mechanism of migrasomes in the heart and provides preliminary evidence for their protective function against cardiomyocyte damage.
