Autophagy inhibition rescues structural and functional defects caused by the loss of mitochondrial chaperone <i>Hsc70-5/mortalin</i> in <i>Drosophila</i>
2020-09-19
Abstract excerpt
We investigate in larval and adult Drosophila models whether loss of the mitochondrial chaperone Hsc70-5 / mortalin is sufficient to cause pathological alterations commonly observed in Parkinson disease. At affected larval neuromuscular junctions, no effects on terminal size, bouton size or number, synapse size, or number were observed, suggesting that we study an early stage of pathogenesis. At this stage, we...
