Mitochondrial Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets
Creative Biogene is committed to the discovery of disease-specific proteins associated with mitochondrial epigenetic products, which can be used as molecular targets for new drug design and provide molecular markers for early diagnosis of diseases.
- Mitochondria are the key to ATP production in almost all cell types.
- Since mitochondria do not contain histone, the methylation / hydroxymethylation rate of mitochondria may be more important than histone modification.
- The epigenetic modification sites of mtDNA mainly include the methylation of whole and some specific fragments of genes.
- Epigenetic modification of mitochondrial specific abnormal sites can be used in clinical tumor therapy and prevention strategies of some related diseases.
- As a new biological marker, mtDNA epigenetic products are used to detect related diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and age-related diseases.
