A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how ...

Scientists have discovered how a mitochondrial mutation rewires immune function in a model of inherited primary mitochondrial disorders, which often lead to severe disability and death.

Mitochondria are well known as the powerhouses of the cell because of their energy generating capabilities. These little ...

Scientists have discovered how a mitochondrial mutation rewires immune function in a model of inherited primary mitochondrial ...

Researchers identified a new, sticky form of mitochondrial DNA damage that builds up at dramatically higher levels than in ...

The findings may have important implications for diseases linked to mitochondrial dysfunction. A newly identified form of DNA damage inside mitochondria, the small structures that supply energy to our ...

Millions of people worldwide live with mitochondrial diseases. These are inherited conditions that make it hard for the ...

Patch-clamp recordings demonstrated that LHON neurons, which typically exhibit impaired sodium and potassium currents, showed restored electrophysiological function after co-culture with MSCs.

Mitochondria, the “powerhouses of the cell,” are vital cellular organelles that govern energy metabolism, maintain redox ...

Mitochondria are often referred to as the powerhouses of the cell. Their main function is to generate the energy necessary to power cells. But, there is more to mitochondria than energy production.
