Abstract
The mitochondrial calcium uptake 1 (MICU1) is an important regulatory protein of mitochondrial calcium homeostasis located in the inner membrane of mitochondria. MICU1 regulates mitochondrial calcium homeostasis by setting mitochondrial calcium intake threshold modulating the function of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) complex, controlling the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore, interacting with MCU and other mitochondrial calcium regulation key molecules, and regulating MICU1/MCU ratio to maintain mitochondrial calcium homeostasis, and then participates in physiological and pathological functions such as energy metabolism, oxidative stress, proliferation, apoptosis, and ferroptosis. More and more studies have shown that MICU1 plays an important role in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular disease, tumors, and other nervous system diseases. However, the structure and function of this molecule are still not completely clear. Further research is needed to understand the exact role of MICU1 mediated mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling in diseases, which is of great significance for the next drug development and clinical application.
