I observed that mitochondrial fission was induced by VPS35 gene, one of Parkinson's disease (PD) causative gene, over-expression into human derived cultured cells using a fluorescence microscope live-imaging. However, I was not able to elucidate association between VPS35 and mitophagy. Based on these, I can consider that VPS35 regulates mitochondrial morphology and disruption of mitochondrial morphological regulation could lead to onset of PD
