Optineurin deficiency disrupts phosphorylated tau proteostasis and clusterin expression in human neurons
2 Sept 2025
Abstract excerpt
Optineurin (OPTN) is an autophagy adaptor protein involved in selective autophagy, including aggrephagy and mitophagy. Pathogenic mutations in OPTN have also been linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal dementia, and glaucoma, supporting its role in the etiology of neurodegenerative diseases. Despite its established biological roles, knowledge about its potential contribution to Alzheimer's...
