AIBP: A New Safeguard against Glaucomatous Neuroinflammation
Glaucoma is a group of ocular diseases that cause irreversible blindness. It is characterized by multifactorial degeneration of the optic nerve axons and retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), resulting in the loss of vision.

Genetic disruption of mitochondrial dynamics and stasis leads to liver injury and tumorigenesis
Mitochondrial fission is mediated by dynamin-related protein 1 (gene name DNM1L) and fusion by mitofusins (MFN1 and MFN2) and optic atrophy 1. The role of mitochondrial dynamics in liver disease and cancer remains poorly understood.

Mitofusin Disease Variant Provides Insight into Mitochondrial Tethering and Fusion
Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Washington, 2021Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that produce the energy we need to move, grow, and think. Every cell, from muscles in the heart to neurons in the brain, has a unique and ever-changing requirement for ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction drives intervertebral disc degeneration, and mitochondrial dynamics are regulated by mitofusins (MFNs). In this study, we evaluated the roles of MFN1 and MFN2 in mitochondrial quality control and their responses to inflammation ...
