| Popis: | Mitochondria have numerous roles in healthy neuronal functioning and in neuronal injury mechanisms. They are quite dynamic organelles in that they fuse, divide and move throughout axons and dendrites. The mechanisms of mitochondrial motility have received much attention, however the significance of the dynamic nature of mitochondria in neurons is unclear. Nonetheless, deficits in mitochondrial trafficking have been implicated in numerous neurodegenerative disorders. The role of aberrant mitochondrial trafficking in neuropsychiatric disorders is not as well understood, but may involve similar mechanisms. In this review we examine the evidence which implicates changes in mitochondrial trafficking in the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric disorders and hypothesize how defective mitochondrial transport may contribute to disease mechanisms. |
