Mitochondrial dynamics in neurodegeneration.

Abstract excerpt

It has been only 15 years since studies began on the molecular mechanisms underlying mitochondrial fission and fusion using simple model organisms such as Drosophila, yeast, and Caenorhabditis elegans. Beyond the primary functions of mitochondrial fission and fusion in controlling organelle shape, size, and number, it became clear that these dynamic processes are also critical to regulating cell death, mitophagy,...
