The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Mitochondrial Quality Control Mechanisms
Dr. Marc Germain, from Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières, Canada, will join us this year to present his most recent findings on "The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Mitochondrial Quality Control Mechanisms" in a session dedicated to "Extracellular Vesicles & Mitochondria: The Target".
Most cells constitutively secrete mitochondrial DNA and proteins in extracellular vesicles (EVs). Dr. Germain, will explain how cells actively prevent the packaging of pro-inflammatory, oxidized mitochondrial proteins that would act as damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) into EVs. He will describe the selectively targeted pathways responsible for distinction between material to be included into EVs and damaged mitochondrial content to be excluded.
