Mitochondria Dysregulation and the Integrated Stress Response in Inflammaging and Cellular Senescence

The integrated stress response (ISR), a key mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease, is being recognized as a novel player in cellular senescence.

Recent studies highlight a key role of dysregulated mitochondria in driving inflammaging and defective immunity. Join this session to discuss emerging evidence on the role of mitochondria bioenergetics on inflammatory responses and the effects of the ISR on the aging process.
