Visualising heteroplasmic mitochondrial DNA variants in situ? Now out as #mtDNA-smFISH in @cp-devcell.bsky.social! We find purifying selection against pathogenic mtDNA variants through genetic bottlenecks in the germline and the developing brain. www.cell.com/developmenta...
Wonderful work from our lab's first PhD student Rajini Chandrasegaram, with Antony Hynes-Allen, Stavroula Petridi, @beitongtong.bsky.social, @abhilesh.bsky.social. Thanks to great collaborations with Hansong Ma, @prudentlab.bsky.social @mitocamb.bsky.social @frisophagy.bsky.social!
Chandrasegaram et al. directly visualize mitochondrial DNA inside intact cells and
tissues and reveal how genetic cell-to-cell variability arises during development.
They show that somatic bottlenecks...

From thymidine kinase 2 deficiency (TK2d) recognition to management
Diagnosis pathways are rarely linear and shaped by key clinical decisions.
At #Euromit2026, UCB joins scientific exchange on TK2d, through sessions, exhibition, and a symposium on the journey from recognition to disease management.💬
Our CEO Liz Curtis spoke to xtalks.com recently about The Lily Foundation’s strategy to transform mitochondrial disease research and our long-term vision for the UK Mitochondrial Disease Research Institute.

The Lily Foundation
Euromit 2029 is coming to Newcastle! Following a successful bid led by Prof Laura Greaves & UK colleagues, Newcastle Mitochondrial Research Group will host Europe’s leading mitochondrial meeting. The Lily Foundation is proud to support the organising committee & help shape the patient programme.
Trying to understand how cells work used to be a bit like making a smoothie 🍓🥭🍌
