Researchers have identified the mitochondrial calcium uniporter as a critical protein in the strengthening of synaptic ...

Where do these mitochondria come from? It is very likely that injuries cause cell lysis, degradation, and tissue breakdown (necrosis), which release the contents of cells, including broken ...

Mitochondria are essential for generating energy that fuels cells and helps them function. Mitochondria are essential for generating energy that fuels cells and helps them function. Mitochondrial ...

However, cancer cells have developed immune evasion strategies, leading to poor treatment responses. Now, researchers have identified the transfer of mitochondria with mutated DNA from cancer ...

In addition to the nucleus, eukaryotic cells may contain several other types of organelles, which may include mitochondria, chloroplasts, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus ...

Mitochondria are essential for generating energy that fuels cells and helps them function. Mitochondrial defects, however, are associated with the development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes.

Targeting mitochondrial retrograde signaling may therefore be promising in the treatment or prevention of metabolic disorders ...

The researchers who made the discovery propose that the independent mitochondria may be released by cells for signaling purposes, although more work is needed to validate that hypothesis. “It’s very ...

Cancer cells cripple immune cells by donating their damaged mitochondria, hindering the immune response and fostering tumour ...

weakening tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), the immune cells that attack tumors. Mitochondria, also known as the ‘powerhouse of the cell,’ are small organelles that produce energy for various ...
