44 results about "Oxidative phosphorylation" patented technology

Oxidative phosphorylation (UK /ɒkˈsɪd.ə.tɪv/, US /ˈɑːk.sɪˌdeɪ.tɪv/ or electron transport-linked phosphorylation) is the metabolic pathway in which cells use enzymes to oxidize nutrients, thereby releasing energy which is used to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). In most eukaryotes, this takes place inside mitochondria. Almost all aerobic organisms carry out oxidative phosphorylation. This pathway is so pervasive because it is a highly efficient way of releasing energy, compared to alternative fermentation processes such as anaerobic glycolysis.

Methods for determining the risk of age-related functional decline

PCT designated stageWO2026082766A1Health-index calculationDisease diagnosisCellular respirationFunctional decline
Aging progresses at different rates among individuals, underscoring the need for better indicators of functional decline. The inventors showed that the T cell energy metabolism in the elderly reveals that high mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, especially in CD4 T regulatory cells, is associated with a reduced probability of being frail / prefrail, independent of age, sex, or comorbidities. When mitochondrial respiration drops below a critical threshold, it adversely affects intrinsic capacity. Furthermore, a low level of oxidative phosphorylation in CD4 T helper cells, particularly in central and effector memory subsets, was significantly associated with a faster decline in intrinsic capacity over time, suggesting that T cell mitochondrial bioenergetics represents a key biomarker for managing functional decline in older adults. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a method for determining the risk of age-related functional decline in a subject comprising the step of measuring the mitochondrial dependency in a population of T cells wherein the mitochondrial dependency (MitoDep) correlates with the age-related functional decline.
