VAMP7-dependent mitochondria-lysosome contacts contribute to glial mitochondrial dynamics and dopaminergic neuron survival.

Although disrupted mitochondrial dynamics in neurons are closely linked to neurodegenerative diseases, far less is known about how mitochondrial dynamics are regulated in glia or whether glial mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to neurodegeneration. Here, we show that the R-SNARE protein VAMP7 regulates the untether...
