SARM1 promotes axonal, synaptic, and mitochondrial pathologies in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A

2022-05-20

Abstract excerpt

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) type 2A is an axonal neuropathy caused by mutations in the mitofusin 2 ( MFN2 ) gene. MFN2 mutations result in profound mitochondrial abnormalities, but the mechanism underlying axonal pathology is unknown. SARM1, the central executioner of axon degeneration, can induce neuropathy and is activated by dysfunctional mitochondria. We tested the role of SARM1 in a rat model carrying...
