Mitochondrial calcium cycling in neuronal function and neurodegeneration
Mitochondria are essential for proper cellular function through their critical roles in ATP synthesis, reactive oxygen species production, calcium (Ca 2+ ) buffering, and apoptotic signaling. In neurons, Ca 2+ buffering is particularly important as it helps to shape Ca 2+ signals and to regulate num...

| Zusammenfassung: | Mitochondria are essential for proper cellular function through their critical roles in ATP synthesis, reactive oxygen species production, calcium (Ca
2+
) buffering, and apoptotic signaling. In neurons, Ca
2+
buffering is particularly important as it helps to shape Ca
2+
signals and to regulate numerous Ca
2+
-dependent functions including neuronal excitability, synaptic transmission, gene expression, and neuronal toxicity. Over the past decade, identification of the mitochondrial Ca
2+
uniporter (MCU) and other molecular components of mitochondrial Ca
2+
transport has provided insight into the roles that mitochondrial Ca
2+
regulation plays in neuronal function in health and disease. In this review, we discuss the many roles of mitochondrial Ca
2+
uptake and release mechanisms in normal neuronal function and highlight new insights into the Ca
2+
-dependent mechanisms that drive mitochondrial dysfunction in neurologic diseases including epilepsy, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. We also consider how targeting Ca
2+
uptake and release mechanisms could facilitate the development of novel therapeutic strategies for neurological diseases. |
