Stem cells overcome damage in other cells by exporting mitochondria
The scientific committee invited Dr. Anurag Agrawa to present his excellent work.
He identified a protein that increases the transfer of mitochondria from mesenchymal stem cells to lung cells. In work published in The EMBO Journal, the researchers reveal that the delivery of mitochondria to human lung cells can rejuvenate damaged cells.
The migration of mitochondria from stem cells to epithelial cells also helps to repair tissue damage and inflammation linked to asthma-like symptoms in mice.
Viral Hepatitis and Mitochondrial Dynamics will be highlighted by Pr Aleem Siddiqui
Pr Aleem Siddiqui, from Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA, will highlight the relation between Viral Hepatitis and Mitochondrial Dynamics during Targeting Mitochondria World Congress 2014.

Microbiota & Mitochondria: A Promising Target
The scientific committee will discuss the axes of the next upcoming Targeting Mitochondria World Congress 2014. One of the strategic axes will be Modulation Diversity & Variety of Microbiota by Mitochondria.
Cutaneous respirometry in healthy volunteers: a novel technique for monitoring mitochondrial function awarded by Targeting Mitochondria Scientific Committee
Dr Floor Harms, from Department of Anesthesiology, Laboratory of Experimental Anesthesiology, Erasmus MC – University Medical Center Rotterdam, The Netherlands was awarded by Scientific Committee of Targeting Mitochondria 2013, for her researches about Cutaneous respirometry in healthy volunteers: a novel technique for monitoring mitochondrial function.
The 4th edition of Targeting Mitochondria World Congress was a huge success
Targeting Mitochondria 2013 was a huge success. More than 140 attendees coming from France, Spain, italy, UK, Japan, Denmark, USA, Switzerland... and working for industries and academies gathered in Berlin last October 17-18, 2013.
More than 30 speakers discussed about the recent advances in researches about mitochondria, devices and clinical studies.
