Mitochondrial dysfunction is a central hallmark of aging and energy transduction is a promising target for longevity interventions. New research suggests that interventions in how energy is transduced could benefit healthy longevity.

I am happy to propose a model for mammalian #mitochondria UPR signaling, published @Nature. https://t.co/Q1nf0KK2El Mito protein misfolding induces two cytosolic signals –mtROS and mito protein precursor accumulation. These activate the mito UPR via a DNAJA1-HSF1 signaling axis.

We show that optogenetically increasing #mitochondrial membrane potential during adulthood using a #light-activated proton pump improves age-associated phenotypes and extends #lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans. 👇 https://t.co/9PSQjtaZgs

A true surprise to find astrocyte primary cilia affected in mitochondrial brain disease. Big congrats for revealing new biology @ignatenkolesya, master mind behind the findings & @SatuMalinen_ @GulayseDunn et al. Now out in @JCellBiol. @HelsinkiUniMed @helsinkiuni @STEMMProgram
Mitochondrial dysfunction induces motile ciliogenesis program in astrocytes! 😯 New study in @JCellBiol by @ignatenkolesya @GulayseDunn @AWartiovaara from @ASW_lab and colleagues @helsinkiuni @STEMMProgram: https://t.co/ljMoyHg4F0

The mitochondrial genome is detectable in practically every human biofluid, mostly found inside small vesicles or as whole mitochondria. @CarolineTrumpff and Shannon Rausser found that cell-free mitochondrial DNA (cf-mtDNA) also is detectable in human saliva.

ATF-4 and hydrogen sulfide signalling mediate longevity in response to inhibition of translation or mTORC1 | Nature Communications
nature.com
Nature Communications - The authors showed that, in C. elegans, inhibition of translation or mTORC1 increases ATF-4 expression independently of ISR signalling. ATF-4 promotes longevity by...
