Neuronal injury can cause mitochondrial damage, leading to reduced energy production, decreased Ca storage capacity, and increased reactive oxygen species. A new study reveals a mechanism to trigger the axonal transport of previously anchored mitochondria and promote neuroprotection and axon regeneration by replacing damaged with functional mitochondria.
神经元损伤可导致线粒体损伤,使能量产生减少、钙储存能力降低、活性氧增加。一项新的研究揭示了一种触发先前锚定的线粒体轴突运输的机制,通过用功能正常的线粒体替代受损的线粒体,从而促进神经保护和轴突再生。
