Epigenetic codes modulate mitochondrial stress response

The ability to detect, respond and adapt to mitochondrial stress ensures the development and survival of organisms. Caenorhabditis elegans responds to mitochondrial stress with induction of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt), a surveillance program that monitors mitochondrial function and buffers the mitochondrial folding environment. Activation of UPRmt also rewires the metabolic state, promotes innate immunity and lifespan extension. Our recent work has revealed that histone and DNA modifications play critical roles in modulating UPRmt and UPRmt-mediated innate immunity and longevity. Future genetic or pharmacological treatments to target these pathways may provide therapeutic potential for the treatment of mitochondrial diseases.
