Mitochondrial Quality Control Systems and Muscle Homeostasis
Using cardiac and skeletal muscle as working models, we are conducting studies to delineate the physiological role of various mitochondrial quality control mechanisms. Our curent work focusses on mitophagy and Mitochondrial-Derived Vesicles using in vitro and in vivo studies combining imaging, proteomics and functional analyses.
Proteins with hyper‐reactive cysteine residues are labeled with green and yellow borders, respectively
