Mitochondrial dynamics–fusion, fission, movement, and mitophagy–in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]
Neurons are metabolically active cells with high energy demands at locations distant from the cell body. As a result, these cells are particularly dependent on mitochondrial function, as reflected by the observation that diseases of mitochondrial ...

Signal transducer and activator of transcription 2 deficiency is a novel disorder of mitochondrial fission [PDF]
Defects of mitochondrial dynamics are emerging causes of neurological disease. In two children presenting with severe neurological deterioration following viral infection we identified a novel homozygous STAT2 mutation, c.1836C4A (p.Cys612Ter), using ...

Mitochondrial genetic diseases [PDF]
Mitochondrial diseases are individually uncommon, but collectively pose a significant burden on human health. Primary mitochondrial disease is caused by defects in the mitochondrial DNA-encoded genes or in nuclear genes whose products are imported into the mitochondrion.

In vitro characterization of mitochondrial function and structure in rat and human cells with a deficiency of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase Ndufc2 subunit [PDF]
Ndufc2, a subunit of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, plays a key role in the assembly and activity of complex I within the mitochondrial OXPHOS chain. Its deficiency has been shown to be involved in diabetes, cancer and stroke.

Inhibition of the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier protects from excitotoxic neuronal death. [PDF]
Glutamate is the dominant excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, but under conditions of metabolic stress it can accumulate to excitotoxic levels.
