DDHD2 is necessary for activity-driven fatty acid fueling of nerve terminal function
2023-12-18
Abstract excerpt
HSP54, a hereditary spastic paraplegia associated with cognitive impairment, is caused by mutations in the neuron-specific triglyceride (TG) lipase DDHD2. Loss of DDHD2 function results in lipid accumulation in human brains 1 and lipid droplets (LDs) in mouse neurons 2 . In metabolically demanding tissues, TG lipases generate a fatty acid (FA) flux from LDs to fuel mitochondrial ATP production, but neurons are c...
