Mitochondrial Augmentation

Molecular classification
Cellular therapy, Organelle transplantation
01

Overview

Mitochondrial augmentation is a therapeutic strategy designed to enhance cellular function by increasing the number or functionality of mitochondria within target cells. This is typically achieved by introducing healthy, exogenous mitochondria into patient-derived cells. It aims to restore cellular energy production and improve cellular function in diseases associated with mitochondrial dysfunction.
