  • New Frontiers
    PROGRAM & BOOK OF ABSTRACTS JUNE 13-16, 2009 • PORTLAND, OREGON New Frontiers Children’s Tumor FoundaTION 95 PINE STREET, 16TH FLOOR, NEW YORK, NY 10005 | WWW.CTF.ORG | 212.344.6633 Dear NF Conference Attendees: On behalf of the Children’s Tumor Foundation, welcome to the 2009 NF Conference: New Frontiers. The theme references the meeting content and also Portland itself, historically a gateway port of the Pacific North West. The urban setting offers a ‘new frontier’ in comparison to the mountain and beach locales of past NF Conferences, but one which we feel you will enjoy. Portland is an easy-going city offering history, beauty and relaxation – features encapsulated in our host hotel The Nines, itself a part of the tapestry of Portland history, renovated from the former landmark Meier & Frank department store. The last year has seen major NF research advances. The dovetailing of discovery, translation and the clinic can be seen throughout the meeting. We are firmly in the age of NF clinical trials and proud that the Children’s Tumor Foundation is part of this advance: in 2009 we funded our first two pilot Clinical Trial Awards. We continue to build a pipeline of candidate NF drug therapies through the Foundation’s multi-center NF Preclinical Consortium and the seed grant Drug Discovery Initiative (DDI) program. Through these translational initiatives we are cultivating NF collaborations with the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sector, a critical factor in moving NF research forward to the clinic. At the same time, basic research advances continue, such as in the unraveling of schwannomatosis.

    MINISTERIO DE CIENCIA E INNOVACIÓN SUBPROGRAMA RAMON Y CAJAL CONVOCATORIA 2011 Nombre: ACIN PEREZ, REBECA Referencia: RYC-2011-07826 Area: Biomedicina Correo electrónico: [email protected] Titulo: Mitochondrial deficiency and cardiomyopathy: Role of Reactive Oxigen species. Resumen de la Memoria: Mitochondrial diseases are now considered to be among the most common forms of genetic disorders, with a minimum prevalence of 1 in 5000 individuals. They can be caused by mutations in either the nuclear or the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). One of the most well characterized clinical presentations is neuromuscular dysfunction, followed by cardiomyopathy, generally in the form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Nowadays there are several clinical treatments approved for mitochondrial diseases. However true treatment is, with some exception, unavailable due to the complexity of the disease and the side effects observed. Several mutations involving mt-tRNA genes (mainly Leu1, Lys and Ile), mt-encoded protein and nuclear encoded protein genes have been associated with cardiomyopathy. Some of these mutations have been deeply studied in a cybrid cell culture model at the biochemistry level. However, very little is known about the signalling pathways that could lead to the development of cardiomyopathy. Mitochondrial physiology and biogenesis are deeply involved in the initiation and progression of the disease, through reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, energy deficiency and decrease in mitochondrial respirasome formation, as initial steps in the formation of the plaques. Recently, it as been demonstrated the role of some mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes, such as PGC1a, in mitochondrial fusion, pointing to the importance of the balance between mitochondrial fusion-fission in the progression of the disease.
