Propionate and Mitochondria
propionic acid is thought to play a role in autism. This post explores a publication that suggests that maleic acid, a metabolite of propionic acid, is the real mitochondria poison.
Propionic Acid,Mitophagy, L-serine
It would seem that dentritic spines have their own supply of mitochondria to produce ATP for all of the work they do. [1] More stimulation of dentritic spines leads to more mitochondria. The Li publication has some excellent images that will not be reproduced in this post. The featured image is a compilation of many Internet images merged with GIMP2.
Presenillin and CIC7
Presenillin, often referred to by its gene name PSEN1, is a subunit in the gamma secretase complex, which cleaves integral membrane proteins. This image was obtained from the UniProt link. The UniProt and Go annotations categorize PSEN1 as a mult-pass membrane protein found in all stages of endosomes,axon projections, and the synapse. The structure in… Continue reading Presenillin and CIC7
