Redox Signaling Pathways Modulation and Mitochondria: Hot Topic to be discussed during Targeting Mitochondria 2013
During ISANH Congress on Antioxidants organized in Paris on July 3-4, 2013 (www.isanh.fr), which celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the creation of ISANH, one of the main discussion showed that antioxidants play their role by modulating redox signaling pathways and not a counter "balance" to oxidant formation. They act to modulate cells signaling domains in which redox signaling occurs.
Mitochondria are a localized signlaing domain and ROS (Superoxidase and Hydrogen Peroxidase) generated by respiratory chain are signaling molecules.

Mitochondrial dysfunction modifies stem cell function: A hot Topic of Targeting Mitochondria 2013
Integrity of mitochondrial genome is essential for proper function of stem cells. It is the hot topic presented by Riikka Hamalainen, from University of Helsinki, Finland during the next World Congress on Targeting Mitochondria 2013.Dr Laurent Chatre, from Pasteur Institute, Paris will present a Novel Imaging Tool to Diagnose in situ Mitochondrial DNA Processing Dysfunction during next Targeting Mitochondria World Congress
To date, mitochondrial transcripts and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication dynamics at the single-cell level were poorly informative of mitochondrial dysfunction.
Pr Douglas Wallace: Key speaker of Targeting Mitochondria 2013
The Scientific Committee of Targeting Mitochondria 2013 is honoured to announce that Pr Douglas Wallace, from Center for Mitochondrial and Epigenomic Medicine, Philadelphia, USA will introduce the fourth edition of the world congress on Targeting Mitochondria 2013, which will be held in Berlin in October 17-18, 2013.
Dr Gerard D'Souza was awarded by Targeting Mitochondria 2012 Scientific Committee
Dr Gerard D'Souza from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, USA, was awarded during Targeting Mitochondria 2012 for his scientific contribution for his work about Functional Expression of Green Fluorescent Protein in Mitochondria of Rat Cells Following Liposome-Mediated Delivery of a Linear DNA Construct.
Scientific Committee of Targeting Mitochondria awarded Dr Shanta Dhar for her work
During Targeting Mitochondria 2012, the Scientific Committee awarded Dr Shanta Dhar for her Scientific Contribution.
Pr Shanta Dhar will present recent researches about Delivering drugs via nanoparticles to target mitochondria: Positive results shown for cancer, Alzheimer’s and obesity drugs during Targeting Mitochondria 2012
Researchers at the University of Georgia have refined the nanoparticle drug delivery process further by using nanoparticles to deliver drugs to a specific organelle within cells.
By targeting mitochondria, “the powerhouse of cells,” the researchers increased the effectiveness of mitochondria-acting therapeutics used to treat cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and obesity in studies conducted with cultured cells.
