Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial dynamics, governed by fusion and fission, are crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis, energy production, and stress adaptation. MFN2 and OPA1, key regulators of mitochondrial fusion, play essential roles beyond their structural functions, influencing bioenergetics, intracellular signaling, and quality control mechanisms such as mitophagy. Disruptions in these processes, often caused by MFN2 or...
