Last week, the House of Commons voted to allow in vitro fertilisation (IVF) to be carried out with eggs from two different women and sperm from one man, a technique which has been dubbed the “three-person baby”. The vote opened a novel avenue for treating mitochondrial diseases because the actual nuclear mother, whose family would have a history of mitochondrial (MT) diseases, does not pass on her mitochondria, with the baby receiving the female donor’s healthy mitochondria instead.

HypOxygen and Don Whitley Scientific are sponsoring a series of Keystone Symposia dealing with tumor micro environment (Vancouver), mitochondria and metabolism (Santa Fe), and immunity and inflammation (Olympic Valley). We are interested in the research being presented at these conferences because physiologically normoxic conditions in all these fields are at much lower oxygen tension (<5%) than ambient. So when cell culture and incubation are carried out at 21%, the cells are being blasted with oxygen that really prevents any sort of physiologically correct behavior at a cellular and sub cellular level.
