Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is at least to provide a technique for promoting elimination of a methyl group(s) of a methoxy group(s) in causing a microorganism having a demethylation ability of eliminating a methyl group(s) of a methoxy group(s) from a compound with the methoxy group(s) in a side chain(s) to produce a demethylated compound in which a methyl group(s) of a methoxy group(s) has eliminated from a compound with the methoxy group(s) in a side chain(s).

Abstract: Provided herein are a method for isolation and transplantation of intact mitochondria to a lymphoid organ (a primary lymphoid tissue or a secondary lymphoid tissue), a composition of cells prepared by using a method described herein, and a method for manufacturing cells described herein. In particular, provided herein are methods of isolating intact mitochondria from a donor cell. Also provided herein are methods of transplanting mitochondria into a recipient cell. In some aspects, the methods can be performed in vivo. Further provided are a composition of cells that include the cells prepared using the methods of the present invention.
