homeostasis/metabolism
• 2-month-old mice exhibit impaired cardiac mitophagy in response to exhaustive exercise, showing a significantly lower count of mitolysosomes (pure red puncta per 1000 um2) in heart tissue at 1 h postexercise than control mice homozygous for Gt(ROSA)26Sortm1(CAG-mCherry/GFP)Ganl alone
• in response to exhaustive exercise, accumulation of phosphorylated Ubiquitin at Serine 65 (p-S65-Ub) and degradation of PRKN (parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase; aka Parkin) are significantly blunted, suggesting impaired signal propagation through the PINK1/ Parkin axis
• however, basal mitophagy levels are not significantly altered under resting conditions and levels of mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins (MFN2, DRP1 and OPA1) remain unchanged during exhaustive exercise
• at 1 h postexercise, 2-month-old mice exhibit a significant increase in plasma IL-6 levels
• however, baseline IL-6 levels are similar to those in control mice
• 2-month-old mice exhibit impaired cardiac mitophagy in response to exhaustive exercise

cardiovascular system
• at 1 h postexercise, 2-month-old mice exhibit a significant reduction in healthy mitochondria along with an increase in mildly damaged mitochondria in heart tissue relative to control mice based on morphological criteria
