  • The CHCHD10V57E mutation is linked to Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and worsens tau pathology.
  • The mutation disrupts the CHCHD10-Rab7A-TBC1D15 complex, leading to Rab7A activation.
  • In tauopathy models, CHCHD10V57E increases neurodegeneration, tau secretion, and cytotoxicity.
  • Depletion of Rab7A partially mitigates these pathological effects.
  • The study provides a mechanism by which CHCHD10 variants contribute to FTD-tau progression.
