Schematic mechanism of the miR-351-5p/Miro2 axis in adult neurogenesis

By an unknown mechanism, abnormal stimuli increase the amount of miR-351-5p, which sequentially downregulates Miro2 in HCN cells. Aberrant low Miro2 levels readily induced mitochondrial fission, resulting in excessive mitophagy and cell death in the HCN population, which can contribute to the pathological condition in AD.
