The Striatum Is Highly Susceptible to Mitochondrial Oxidative Phosphorylation Dysfunctions
6 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
Neuronal oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) deficiency has been associated with a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease. However, it is not clear how mitochondrial dysfunction alone can lead to a preferential elimination of certain neuronal populations in vivo. We compared different types of neuronal populations undergoing the same OXPHOS deficiency to...
