Human skin fibroblasts were isolated from a 48-year-old patient carrying compound heterozygous mutations (c.610+364G>A and c.1311A>G) in OPA1, responsible for early onset optic atrophy complicated by ataxia and pyramidal signs (Behr syndrome; OMIM ...

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

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 ...

Optic Atrophy 1-Dependent Mitochondrial Remodeling Controls Steroidogenesis in Trophoblasts [PDF]
During human pregnancy, placental trophoblasts differentiate and syncytialize into syncytiotrophoblasts that sustain progesterone production [1]. This process is accompanied by mitochondrial fragmentation and cristae remodeling [2], two facets of mitochondrial apoptosis, whose molecular mechanisms and functional consequences on steroidogenesis are ...

The cristae modulator Optic atrophy 1 requires mitochondrial ATP synthase oligomers to safeguard mitochondrial function. [PDF]
AbstractIt is unclear how the mitochondrial fusion protein Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1), which inhibits cristae remodeling, protects from mitochondrial dysfunction. Here we identify the mitochondrial F1Fo-ATP synthase as the effector of OPA1 in mitochondrial protection.
