Marcinek Lab

The Translational Bioenergetics Lab combines basic research and clinical trials to understand how mitochondrial bioenergetics contributes to health.

We have two NIH funded postdoctoral positions open to study mitochondrial aging in skeletal muscle and heart. Check out our website at https://t.co/LZilyqCq5K

Our new paper with the Bruce Lab @Bruce_Lab_UW is now available in @NatureAging. We apply cross-linking with mass spectrometry to identify changes in the aging mitochondrial protein interactome associated with deficits in mitochondrial function. https://t.co/dMOxeQRcNV

Our new paper showing mitochondrial dysfunction (low NAD+ and ATP) is associated with worse PD symptoms. This is especially exciting in light of the NADPARK /NOPARK studies, currently attempting to boost NAD+ and ATP. https://t.co/qqnJAS2tMM

Randomized trial finds the gut microbiome metabolite urolithin A enhanced muscle endurance and improved mitochondrial health in older adults. Study highlights potential role of mitophagy activation to improve muscle health. https://t.co/oIBaA3nmsD
