The MITO lab will attend the Orthopaedic Research Society (ORS) 2025 Conference in Arizona in February. We are proud to announce that many of our members will be presenting their abstracts and hosting podium presentations. Here is a list of abstracts to be presented:

1. Mild Cold Exposure Rejuvenates Aged Muscle Repair in Mice
2. Investigating Rotator Cuff Pain and Neuropathic Pain Connection in a Mouse Model: Insights for Mechanistic Pathways
3. Blood Flow Restriction Upregulates Promyogenic Mitochondrial Transfer in Rotator Cuff Injury
4. Modulating Integrated Stress Response Prevents Muscle Fibrosis While Promoting Muscle Regeneration in vivo
5. Defining the Role of HIF-2 in Muscle Fatty Infiltration after Rotator Cuff Tears Using Knockout Mice and AI-Generated Human Cell Knockout Model
6. Muscle Fatty Infiltration: A Hidden Cause of Pain After Rotator Cuff Tears
7. Extending Survival and Preserving Motor Function in SOD1 ALS Mice Through Blood Flow Restriction Therapy
8. Transient Activation of Integrated Stress Response Induces Adult and Aged Murine Muscle Stem Cell Activation and Contributes to Muscle Regeneration in vivo
9. Induction of the Integrated Stress Response on Aging Murine Muscle Stem Cells Through Transcriptomics and Machine Learning Approach on Morphologies
10.  Proteomic Profiling of Non-Inflammatory Proteins Involved in Skeletal Muscle Regeneration Following Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
11. Muscle Overuse Induces Intramuscular Fibrotic Changes Accompanied by Proliferation of Fibro-adipogenic Cells Without Myofiber Damage
12.  Skeletal Muscle Pre-adipogenic FAP Subpopulation Increases with ALS Progression in SOD1G93A Transgenic Mice
13.  Assessing the Longitudinal Trends and Risk Factors of Operative Versus Non-Operative Management of Achilles Tendon Ruptures: A National Database Cohort Study
14. Investigating a Patient’s Becker’s Muscular Dystrophy (BMD) Phenotype Through A Novel Personalized Mouse Model
15. A Novel Machine Learning Model for Accurate Automated Segmentation of Damaged Myofiber of Irregular Morphology.

Our podium presenters are: Nesa Milan, Aboubacar Wague, Alex Brown, Hannah Zhang, and Zachary Liu. 

Congratulations to everyone presenting! Check back in late February for more ORS updates.
