Abstract
Mitochondrial transplantation and transfer are being explored as therapeutic options in acute and chronic diseases to restore cellular function in injured tissues. To limit potential immune responses and rejection of donor mitochondria, current clinical applications have focused on delivery of autologous mitochondria. We recently convened a Mitochondrial Transplant Convergent Working Group (CWG), to explore three key issues that limit clinical translation: (1) storage of mitochondria, (2) biomaterials to enhance mitochondrial uptake, and (3) dynamic models to mimic the complex recipient tissue environment. In this review, we present a summary of CWG conclusions related to these three issues and provide an overview of pre-clinical studies aimed at building a more robust toolkit for translational trials.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the associations of common mitochondrial DNA polymorphisms with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: Data from 286 longevous individuals aged 95 years or older from the longevity arm from the Rugao Longevity and Ageing Study (RuLAS) were used. Twenty-eight common haplogroups defined by 33 single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped using SNaPshot minisequencing reaction assays. The creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. Results: The prevalence of CKD was 23.6% among the longevous participants aged 95 years and older. The D haplogroup (67.37 ± 14.72 vs. 70.65 ± 11.07, p = 0.045), the D5 haplogroup (60.86 ± 18.36 vs. 70.34 ± 11.53, p = 0.002), and the 5178A allele (67.23 ± 14.48 vs. 70.75 ± 11.10, p = 0.029) were associated with lower eGFR levels compared with noncarriers. The D5 haplogroup (13.8% vs. 3.6%, p = 0.005) was significantly higher, while D haplogroup (35.4% vs. 24%, p = 0.067) and the 5178A allele (36.9% vs. 24.9%, p = 0.056) were borderline significantly higher in CKD individuals than those without CKD. Further, after adjusting for multiple covariates, the D haplogroup, the D5 haplogroup, and the 5178A allele were associated with increased odds of CKD with odds ratios of 1.93 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00-3.72, p = 0.050), 4.76 (95% CI: 1.49-15.22, p = 0.009) and 2.04 (95% CI: 1.05-3.96, p = 0.035), respectively. Conclusions: The D and D5 haplogroups, as well as the 5178A allele are associated with decreased eGFR levels and an increased risk of CKD in a longevous population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney transplant rejection is considered as a vital factor of kidney transplant failure. Therefore, it's necessary to search for effective biomarkers for kidney transplant surveillance. METHODS In this study, we conducted time-series gene expression profiles analysis of samples from kidney transplant patients with different post-transplant days through weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Associations between gene co-expression modules and days post-transplant were determined through spearman rank correlation analysis. Potential kidney transplant rejection-related modules were subjected to gene functional enrichment analysis through clusterProfiler and protein-protein interaction analysis via STRING database. RESULTS A total of 11 gene co-expression modules were identified, and the pink module which was mainly involved in "energy derivation by oxidation of organic compounds" and "Huntington disease" showed significant correlation with the phenotypic trait "days post-transplant". CYC1, SDHA, UQCRC1, UQCRQ, and SDHB in the pink module exhibited high scores in the protein-protein interaction network analysis. CONCLUSIONS We reported several potential genes may be associated with the kidney transplant rejection, which should provide novel biomarkers for kidney transplant surveillance.
