Stanford University-led researchers report that tumor cells hijack mitochondria from immune cells, reducing anti-tumor immune ...

A new Nature study suggests chronic nerve pain could be eased by an unexpected source: healthy mitochondria. Duke University School of Medicine researchers found that delivering this fresh energy ...

A newly identified identified cellular mechanism allows mitochondria to recycle localized damage and maintain healthy function. Mitochondria, the so-called "powerhouse of the cell," depend on a newly ...

Tiny structures inside your cells keep your body alive by turning food into fuel. These structures, called mitochondria, power every heartbeat, thought, and movement. When they fail, organs that need ...

A stressful year leads to anxiety. Lasting isolation gives way to depression. An old trauma nags until it becomes paralyzing. Psychological and social experiences shape the brain, potentially leading ...

Mutations in the lipid transporter ABCA7 are known to elevate the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, but how they do so has been murky. Now, scientists led by Li-Huei Tsai at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts ...

After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, forms an abnormal connection with an enzyme called ClpP. This enzyme normally ...

As the powerhouse of the cells, mitochondria are critical for every organism because of their role in producing energy while also controlling survival, but how they function in cancer is still not ...
