This project develops innovative genetic and molecular biology tools to identify the factors that make certain neurons more vulnerable to mitochondrial diseases. By enhancing our understanding of these diseases, the project aims to uncover new therapeutic targets for effective treatments.
Mitochondria generate most of the energy cells require to function.
Deficits in the mitochondrial energy-generating machinery affect 1:5,000 children and cause progressive, debilitating, and usually fatal pathologies collectively known as primary mitochondrial disease.
To date, there is no cure for mitochondrial disease and existing treatments are highly ineffective and mostly palliative.
High-energy-requiring cells, such as neurons, are especially affected in mitochondrial disease.
However, no…
