Small molecule induces mitochondrial fusion for neuroprotection via targeting CK2 without affecting its conventional kinase activity
Abstract Mitochondrial fusion/fission dynamics plays a fundamental role in neuroprotection; however, there is still a severe lack of therapeutic targets for this biological process. Here, we found that the naturally derived small molecule echinacoside (ECH) significantly promotes mitochondrial fusio...
