Fluorescent pulse-chase labeling to monitor long-term mitochondrial degradation in primary hippocampal neurons

Summary: The accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases, yet the dynamics of mitochondrial turnover in neurons are unclear. Here, we describe a protocol to monitor the degradation of spectrally distinct, “aged” mitochondrial populations. We describe the pr...
