Circulating Mitochondrial DNA as an Early Indicator of Severe Lung Disease
Prof. Andrew E. Gelman from Washington University School of Medicine, USA will give a presentation entitled "Circulating Mitochondrial DNA as an Early Indicator of Severe Lung Disease".
Prof. Gelman will discuss how cell-free mitochondria DNA levels have been used to evaluate the severity of solid organ injury. He will also cover the implications of cell-free mitochondrial DNA findings in several pulmonary diseases including COVID-19. Additionally, Prof. Gelman will talk about the possible tissue origins of cell-free mitochondria DNA and whether it is the result of an overexuberant immune response or a sign of mitochondrial dysfunction.
