Traditionally referred to as the powerhouses of cells, mitochondria play a vital role in the conversion of food into energy for biological processes in cell biology. However, in recent years, a ...

The scientists have discovered that a single inherited mutation causes whole-body issues in a model of inherited primary mitochondrial disorders after the immune response is sparked into action.

Disorders of the cells' energy supply can cause a number of serious diseases, but also seem to be connected to ageing. More research is needed on mitochondrial function to find future treatments. A ...

The World Mitochondria Society (WMS) is preparing for its annual Targeting Mitochondria 2024 conference, which will focus on innovative strategies to "charge" cells by supplying them with extra ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 118, No. 8 (February 23, 2021), pp. 1-9 (9 pages) The ATP synthase complexes in mitochondria make the ATP required ...

New findings in mice have uncovered a crucial mechanism linking neuronal activity to mitochondrial function, researchers report, revealing a potential pathway to combat age-related cognitive decline.

Spaceflight is no picnic for the body. Muscles atrophy, bones thin, arteries stiffen, inflammation spikes, vision deteriorates—and that’s just for starters. But a new study shows that these disparate ...
