Mitokinin is operates in the healthcare industry focusing on biotechnology business.

Mitokinin has advanced small molecule therapeutics that specifically increase the activity of active-form PINK1. Importantly, Mitokinin’s compounds do not interfere with the endogenous regulation of PINK1.

PINK1 is a master regulator of mitochondrial quality control. Mutations in PINK1 give rise to familial forms of Parkinson’s disease. Increased PINK1 activity rescues pathologies associated with neurodegenerative disease.

Mitokinin has an accomplished team of neuroscientists, chemists, pharmacologists, and administrative professionals all focused on our mission: delivering disease-modifying therapies for neurodegenerative disease.
