Outline of Final Research Achievements

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that constantly undergo fusion and fission to adapt to changes in the cellular environment. We investigated the role of Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), a GTPase that mediates mitochondrial fission in mediating cardiac senescence. Drp1 downregulation induced mitochondrial fusion, accumulation of damaged mitochondria, increased apoptosis and cardia dysfunction in vivo and in vitro. Drp1 downregulation also suppressed autophagy.
Disruption of mitochondrial fission inhibits mitochondrial autophagy, and causes mitochondrial dysfunction, thereby promoting cardiac senescence and dysfunction. These results suggest that mitochondrial dynamics may be the target for the treatment of cardiac senescence.
