Low Levels of Lipid Molecule That Affects Mitochondria Linked to Charcot-Marie-Tooth 2F
Researchers have found that low levels of ceramide, a lipid molecule, leads to changes in mitochondrial structure and function, resulting in the neuronal degeneration seen in CMT2F, a form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. The study titled, “Decreased ceramide underlies mitochondrial dysfunction in Charcot-Marie-Tooth 2F,” was published in the…
