iPSC models of mitochondrial diseases by Sonja Heiduschka, Alessandro Prigione

“…Consequently, most mitochondrial diseases are currently untreatable. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) represent a promising approach for developing human model systems and assessing therapeutic avenues in a patient- and tissue-specific context. iPSCs are being increasingly used to investigate mitochondrial diseases, either for dissecting mutation-specific defects within two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) progenies or for unveiling the impact of potential treatment options. …”

Protecting the Autonomy of Patients with Severe Mental Illness Through Psychiatric Advance Directive Peer-Facilitation by Nicholas Karasik

“…Guiding Distributive Justice: Capability Theory Capability theory is an account of justice opportunity that places a fundamental moral significance on individuals' ability to reach proper functioning and well-being.[52] Whether or not an individual can make use of a particular set of resources and convert them into a state of functioning depends on personal, sociopolitical, and environmental conditions ("conversion factors").[53] In this sense, liberty is not the absence of restraint from others or institutions but the freedom achieved through capability-enhancing relationships.[54] Within the context of bioethics, capability theory shifts focus toward creating circumstances by which individuals can direct their lives as they choose.[55] Acting in accordance with the principle of beneficence, peer-support specialists could enhance the capability of patients to be self-determined and autonomous, which would promote patient well-being and empowerment.[56] Those living with SMI, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, are among the most disadvantaged in society, experiencing social and economic hardship related to their illness.[57] These individuals are often feared and rejected by others, which increases depression, lowers self-esteem, and engenders feelings of social isolation.[58] Compounding their challenges, especially for those facing structural inequalities, is insufficient access to appropriate mental health services supporting recovery.[59] Capability theory provides a sound justification for the resource distribution necessary to create and sustain a thriving network of peer-support specialists, to which those with SMI currently do not have access. …”
