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.

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.
