Aging compromises hematopoietic and immune system functions, making elderly individuals especially susceptible to hematopoietic failure, infections and tumor development and thus representing an important medical target for a broad range of diseases. During aging, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) lose their blood reconstitution capability and commit preferentially toward myeloid lineage (myeloid-bias). These processes are accompanied by an aberrant accumulation of mitochondria in HSCs. The administration of the mitophagy-inducer Urolithin-A re-establishes the correct mitochondrial homeostasis in HSCs and completely restores the blood reconstitution capability of "old" HSCs. Moreover, Urolithin-A supplemented food restores lymphoid compartments, boosts HSCs function and improves the immune response to viral infection in old mice. Altogether our results demonstrate that targeting mitophagy reverts aging phenotype in the hematopoietic and immune system.
