Aberrant activity of mitochondrial NCLX is linked to impaired synaptic transmission and is associated with mental retardation

Stavsky et al. examined the effects of deleting the mitochondrial sodium/lithium/calcium exchanger, NCLX, on mitochondrial and synaptic calcium homeostasis, synaptic activity, and plasticity in mice. Having identified a human mutation that impairs NCLX activity and is associated with mental retardat...
