Abstract

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a common feature of many genetic disorders that target the brain and cognition. However, the exact role these organelles play in the etiology of such disorders is not understood. Here, we show that mitochondrial dysfunction impairs brain development, depletes the adult neural stem cell (NSC) pool and impacts embryonic and adult neurogenesis. Using deletion of the mitochondrial oxidoreductase AIF as a genetic model of mitochondrial and neurodegenerative diseases revealed the importance of mitochondria in multiple steps of the neurogenic process. Developmentally, impaired mitochondrial function causes defects in NSC self-renewal, neural progenitor cell proliferation and cell cycle exit, as well as neuronal differentiation. Sustained mitochondrial dysfunction into adulthood leads to NSC depletion, loss of adult neurogenesis and manifests as a decline in brain function and cognitive impairment. These data demonstrate that mitochondrial dysfunction, as observed in genetic mitochondrial and neurodegenerative diseases, underlies the decline of brain function and cognition due to impaired stem cell maintenance and neurogenesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
