Calpain-Inhibitors Protect Frataxin-Deficient Dorsal Root Ganglia Neurons from Loss of Mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger, NCLX, and Apoptosis
Abstract
Calpains are calcium-dependent proteases activated in apoptotic cell death and neurodegeneration. Friedreich Ataxia is a neurodegenerative rare disease caused by frataxin deficiency, a mitochondrial protein. Dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory neurons are among the cellular types most affected in this disease. We have previously demonstrated that frataxin-deficient DRGs show calpain activation, alteration in calcium levels and decreased content...
