Autologous Mitochondrial Transplant for Cerebral Ischemia
Dr. Melanie Walker from the University of Washington Medical School, USA, will join us this year to present her most recent findings on "Autologous Mitochondrial Transplant for Cerebral Ischemia".
Stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. More than 80% of strokes are the result of ischemia caused by blockage of one or more cerebral arteries. Lack of blood supply starves brain cells of necessary glucose and oxygen, and disturbs cellular homeostasis, eventually resulting in neuronal death. Based on many preclinical studies in animals, damage caused by ischemia can be reversed after infusing healthy mitochondria into injured tissues. An ongoing clinical trial in human hearts at Boston Children's Hospital has also demonstrated that transplanting autologous mitochondria via infusion or direct injection is well-tolerated and safe.
Dr. Walker and her clinical research team are currently recruiting for a first-in-human-brain trial to assess the safety of mitochondrial transplantation for ischemic-reperfusion injury in the brain. She will discuss their preclinical studies and status of their clinical trial.

Mitochondrial DNA as Extracellular Vesicle Cargo in Aging and Age-related Conditions
Dr. Nicole Noren Hooten from the National Institute on Aging, National Institutes of Health, USA will join us this year to present her recent findings on “Mitochondrial DNA as Extracellular Vesicle Cargo in Aging and Age-related Conditions” in a session entitled “Extracellular Vesicles & Mitochondria: The Target”
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can be released into the extracellular space as circulating cell-free mitochondria DNA (ccf-mtDNA). Recent findings from our laboratory indicate that ccf-mtDNA in plasma can be encapsulated in extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs are small nano-sized particles that are released by cells into the circulation and shuttle bioactive cargo as part of intercellular communication systems.
Dr. Noren Hooten's talk will discuss the role of mitochondrial DNA in extracellular vesicles in the context of aging and age-related conditions.

Targeting the Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response in Prostate Cancer
Dr. Dhyan Chandra, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, USA will join us this year to present his most recent findings on "Targeting the Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response in Prostate Cancer".
Dr. Dhyan Chandra has identified the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) as a new target for prostate cancer treatment and management. His research team revealed that the two key components of the UPRmt, heat shock protein 60 (HSP60, a mitochondrial chaperonin) and caseinolytic protease (ClpP, a mitochondrial protease) work together and are required for the development of advanced prostate cancer. They observed that HSP60 acts as upstream regulator of ClpP expression and HSP60 interacts with ClpP to maintain mitochondrial function.
Dr. Chandra has also discovered a novel UPRmt (referred to as DCEM1) that inhibits HSP60 interactions with ClpP in prostate cancer cells and prostate tumors, leading to the blockade prostate cancer growth and progression in preclinical study. Since the current androgen deprivation and taxane-based therapy are not effective, these findings provide alternative treatment approaches for prostate cancer that do not rely on androgen receptor signaling axis.

Regulation of Mitochondrial DNA Polymerase POLG1 Proteolysis and its Role in the Progeroid Disease Cockayne Syndrome and Physiological Ageing
Dr. Miria Ricchetti, Institut Pasteur, France will join us this year to present her most recent findings on "Regulation of Mitochondrial DNA Polymerase POLG1 Proteolysis and its Role in the Progeroid Disease Cockayne Syndrome and Physiological Ageing".
The mechanisms of proteolysis and proteostasis of several mitochondrial matrix proteins are known. This was not the case for the pivotal polymerase POLG1 that ensures the replication of the mitochondrial genome. Dr. Ricchetti and her team show here a mechanism that leads to POLG1 degradation and has implications in pathophysiological ageing.
