The study shows that mitochondria do more than provide energy; they play an active role in modulating the immune response.

These are mitochondria of several distantly related unicellular eukaryotes (protists) that lack an electron transport chain altogether. They synthesize ATP from pyruvate breakdown via simple ...

Virginia Tech neuroscientists have uncovered a mitochondrial process that supports the brain cells critical for learning, ...

Researchers have identified a unique mitochondrial process in CA2 neurons that supports learning, memory, and social ...

All mitochondria retain core genomes of their own, which are necessary for the control of membrane potential across a circumscribed area of membrane, enabling a 104-105-fold increase in the total ...

Mitochondria, often seen as cellular powerhouses, play a surprising role in immune regulation. Researchers found that ...

A novel mechanism that enables cells to maintain energy production even when their main power supply drops/fails has been ...

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 ...

Mitochondria power eukaryotic cells to carry out their varied ... As part of their work to characterize these mini energy machines in placentas, the team uploaded electron microscopy images of the ...

since mitochondria power the muscles. They extracted quadricep muscles from exercise-trained mice and looked at them with a transmission electron microscope. Treg-deficient muscles had more “swollen” ...
