Description |
Optic atrophy resulting from retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration is the most prominent ocular manifestation of mitochondrial dysfunction. Efforts to develop effective pharmacotherapies for mitochondrial optic neuropathies have been hampered, in part, by the lack of an ideal preclinical animal model. Although mutant mice lacking the mitochondrial complex I accessory subunit NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (NDUFS4) develop early-onset optic atrophy, severe systemic mitochondrial dysfunction leads to very early death, making this mouse line impractical for studying the pathobiology of mitochondrial optic neuropathy. |
