The genes treated rare genetic diseases, but this could also be useful for SENS.

in terms of SENS difficulty, what was this exactly?

What?

I don't think SENS plans to use this exactly. I think an idea of SENS was to move functions of protein expression away from the mitochondria and into the nucleaus.

Hi all - no, this is exactly the SENS approach to combating mitochondrial mutations. The trick the Paris group used allows the progteins to be imported before they have folded into a configuration that's hard to import. We've been talking closely to this group for several months. Corral-Debrinski is presenting at SENS3, and the work that New Scientist have picked up on that caused this news flurry was published in Rejuvenation Research.

This is good to hear. As I've mentioned before, the general scope of science and technology allows for different fields and studies to contribute to other ones (in this case SENS).

It's good to have professionals who frequent this board, at least we get concrete clarification regarding the issues at hand.

Great! good job.
There is hope for us yet

Nice to hear from an expert on the subject [glasses]

thanks for the reply Aubrey, it's nice to see you around these parts again.

Has anyone studied the mitochondria in patients with Progeria or Werner's Syndrome?
Thank you!
