Functionally Relevant Maculopathy and Optic Atrophy in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 1 [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundSpinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA‐ATXN1) is an inherited progressive ataxia disorder characterized by an adult‐onset cerebellar syndrome combined with nonataxia signs. Retinal or optic nerve affection are not systematically described.ObjectivesTo describe a retinal phenotype and its functional relevance in SCA‐ATXN1.MethodsWe applied

Multi-omics analysis of the oncogenic role of optic atrophy 1 in human cancer. [PDF]
To investigate the prognostic significance of optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) in pan-cancer and analyze the relationship between OPA1 and immune infiltration in cancer.OPA1 exhibited high expression levels or mutations in various types of tumor cells, and its expression levels were significantly correlated with the survival rate of tumor patients.

Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) is over-expressed in brain metastatic breast cancer.
Preservation of mitochondrial integrity is essential for prevention of cell death (1, 2). Brain metastases are a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (3-5). We mined published microarray data (6, 7) to discover genes associated with brain metastasis in patients with brain metastatic breast cancer.

Atrophy of the optic chiasm is associated with microvascular diabetic complications in type 1 diabetes [PDF]
IntroductionDiabetic neuropathy and diabetic eye disease are well known complications of type 1 diabetes. We hypothesized that chronic hyperglycemia also damages the optic tract, which can be measured using routine magnetic resonance imaging. Our aim was to compare morphological differences in the optic tract between individuals with type 1 diabetes ...

The short variant of optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) improves cell survival under oxidative stress. [PDF]
Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) is a dynamin protein that mediates mitochondrial fusion at the inner membrane. OPA1 is also necessary for maintaining the cristae and thus essential for supporting cellular energetics. OPA1 exists as membrane-anchored long form (L-OPA1) and short form (S-OPA1) that lacks the transmembrane region and is generated by cleavage of L ...

To investigate the effects of Bax inhibitor 1 (BI- 1) and optic atrophy protein 1 (OPA1) on vascular calcification (VC).Mouse models of VC were established in ApoE-deficient (ApoE-/-) diabetic mice by high-fat diet feeding for 12 weeks followed by intraperitoneal injections with Nε-carboxymethyl-lysine for 16 weeks. ApoE-/- mice (control group), ApoE-/-

Autophagy controls the pathogenicity of
AbstractOptic Atrophy 1 (OPA1) gene mutations cause diseases ranging from isolated dominant optic atrophy (DOA) to various multisystemic disorders. OPA1, a large GTPase belonging to the dynamin family, is involved in mitochondrial network dynamics.
