Mitotherapy Restores mitochondrial function and improves cognitive deficits in Alzheimer’s disease
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), contributing to cognitive decline. This study explores the therapeutic potential of mitochondrial transplantation in mitigating cognitive decline in AD. Structurally and functionally characterized mitochondria from young rat brains were intravenously transplanted into AD rats. Confocal imaging confirmed integration of exogenous tagged mitochondria into hippocampal tissue. Post-mitotherapy, we noted significant cognitive improvement by neurobehavioral tests and significant reduction in protein levels of amyloid precursor protein. Further mitochondrial functional parameters improved; reduced oxidative stress, improved mitochondrial membrane potential, and calcium homeostasis. These findings highlight mitotherapy as a promising strategy for treating Alzheimer’s disease.
期刊介绍:
Mitochondrion is a definitive, high profile, peer-reviewed international research journal. The scope of Mitochondrion is broad, reporting on basic science of mitochondria from all organisms and from basic research to pathology and clinical aspects of mitochondrial diseases. The journal welcomes original contributions from investigators working in diverse sub-disciplines such as evolution, biophysics, biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, genetics, pharmacology, toxicology, forensic science, programmed cell death, aging, cancer and clinical features of mitochondrial diseases.
