摘要Mitochondrial dysfunction has emerged as a critical factor in the etiology of various neurodevelopmental disorders,including autism spectrum disorders,attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder,and Rett syndrome.Although these conditions differ in clinical presentation,they share fundamental pathological features that may stem from abnormal mitochondrial dynamics and impaired autophagic clearance,which contribute to redox imbalance and oxidative stress in neurons.This review aimed to elucidate the relationship between mitochondrial dynamics dysfunction and neurodevelopmental disorders.Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that undergo continuous fusion and fission to meet the substantial energy demands of neural cells.Dysregulation of these processes,as observed in certain neurodevelopmental disorders,causes accumulation of damaged mitochondria,exacerbating oxidative damage and impairing neuronal function.The phosphatase and tensin homolog-induced putative kinase 1/E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase pathway is crucial for mitophagy,the process of selectively removing malfunctioning mitochondria.Mutations in genes encoding mitochondrial fusion proteins have been identified in autism spectrum disorders,linking disruptions in the fusion-fission equilibrium to neurodevelopmental impairments.Additionally,animal models of Rett syndrome have shown pronounced defects in mitophagy,reinforcing the notion that mitochondrial quality control is indispensable for neuronal health.Clinical studies have highlighted the importance of mitochondrial disturbances in neurodevelopmental disorders.In autism spectrum disorders,elevated oxidative stress markers and mitochondrial DNA deletions indicate compromised mitochondrial function.Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder has also been associated with cognitive deficits linked to mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress.Moreover,induced pluripotent stem cell models derived from patients with Rett syndrome have shown impaired mitochondrial dynamics and heightened vulnerability to oxidative injury,suggesting the role of defective mitochondrial homeostasis in these disorders.From a translational standpoint,multiple therapeutic approaches targeting mitochondrial pathways show promise.Interventions aimed at preserving normal fusion-fission cycles or enhancing mitophagy can reduce oxidative damage by limiting the accumulation of defective mitochondria.Pharmacological modulation of mitochondrial permeability and upregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha,an essential regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis,may also ameliorate cellular energy deficits.Identifying early biomarkers of mitochondrial impairment is crucial for precision medicine,since it can help clinicians tailor interventions to individual patient profiles and improve prognoses.Furthermore,integrating mitochondria-focused strategies with established therapies,such as antioxidants or behavioral interventions,may enhance treatment efficacy and yield better clinical outcomes.Leveraging these pathways could open avenues for regenerative strategies,given the influence of mitochondria on neuronal repair and plasticity.In conclusion,this review indicates mitochondrial homeostasis as a unifying therapeutic axis within neurodevelopmental pathophysiology.Disruptions in mitochondrial dynamics and autophagic clearance converge on oxidative stress,and researchers should prioritize validating these interventions in clinical settings to advance precision medicine and enhance outcomes for individuals affected by neurodevelopmental disorders.
