Transfer and fates of damaged mitochondria: role in health and disease. Mitochondrial transfer is prevalent in vivo and could exhibit diverse functions contingent upon physiological conditions. Therefore, investigating the mechanisms and modalities of cell-dependent mitochondrial transfer across different cell types and their actions in various disease states is critical. https://lnkd.in/eG-66ktk

Thrombosis is a very common condition that about half of us are unaware of and often overlook. One in four people worldwide dies from conditions caused by thrombosis. Thrombosis is the pathology behind heart attack, thromboembolic stroke and venous thromboembolism (VTE), the top three causes of cardiovascular death. Every October we highlight the importance of informing and raising public awareness of the disease and its effects, ensuring that more individuals are informed, protected and empowered against this often silent threat.

Peripheral vascular diseases refer to conditions that affect the blood vessels outside of the heart and brain, such as arteries and veins in the legs, arms, and abdomen. Over the years, there have been significant advancements in the management of peripheral vascular diseases, leading to improved outcomes and quality of life for patients. Join us this Friday, 28th of July, at 12pm, as we discuss modern trends in PVD management. Link to join - https://shorturl.at/lorxL #WeWillLookAfterYou

A growing body of research is examining the link between extremes in the earth’s temperature and cardiovascular disease (CVD), the leading cause of death worldwide. How might people prepare for periods of excessive heat or cold so they can take measures to either avoid exposure or mitigate effects? Read more about extreme weather patterns & CVD here: https://hubs.la/Q02nrXjR0 In functional medicine, there are tools that help assess a patient’s exposure to extreme heat or cold and help pinpoint the role these exposures may play—past or present—in that patient’s disease.
