1 Welcome to MMIG (Mitochondria and Metabolism Interest Group)

2 What is MMIG? Interest-driven group open to all PIs studying M & M, currently ~25 members Scientific exchange and collaboration Share resources and expertise Strengthen training environment Program development and visibility

3 Format Regular meetings: weekly, biweekly or monthly? Invited speakers/visitors (local and national): Monthly? Forum for the trainees (journal club and work-in-progress presentations) Annual retreat: November 8-9, 2010

4 Home base: Mitochondria and Metabolism Center at SLU http://depts.washington.edu/mmcslu http://depts.washington.edu/mmcslu Program Specialist: Karen Liebert mmcslu@u.washington.edu mmcslu@u.washington.edu –Refer new MMIG members –Suggest future meeting place –Suggest speakers, meeting time and frequency

8 How is mitochondrial dynamics (fission/fusion) regulated in neurons? Is the fission/fusion machinery in neurons unique? How is mitochondrial fission/fusion regulated in neurons in response to injury and disease? Can we prevent neuronal apoptosis and maintain function by modulating mitochondrial dynamics? The complexities of regulating mitochondria in neurons MMIG - 9 June 2010 - Morrison 1

11 Wang lab Research interests:  Physiological mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening and superoxide flash activity in the heart;  Molecular mechanism of mPTP triggered superoxide flash production;  Role of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) in oxidative stress. What we do?  Focus on cardiovascular system;  Adult cardiac myocyte culture and adenovirus mediated gene transfer;  Confocal measurement of superoxide flash (cpYFP), mitochondrial / cytosolic Ca 2+ and mitochondrial membrane potential;  Assessment of cardiac myocyte function: contractility & Ca 2+ handling;  Transgenic mice expressing superoxide indicator in mitochondria;  Mitochondrial ROS signaling in disease: ischemia reperfusion injury, heart failure, diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
