Mitochondria are essential organelles that drive energy production, regulate apoptosis and orchestrate metabolic signalling within cells. Their dynamic nature underpins processes as diverse as ATP ...

Mitochondria play a central role in cellular energy metabolism by converting nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through oxidative phosphorylation. Beyond energy production, these organelles ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Jesse Pines is an expert in healthcare innovation and wellness. Microscopic view of mitochondria—often called the "powerhouses of ...

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 ...

The AHA recommended whole exome or whole genome sequencing as first-line diagnostic tools for mitochondrial diseases.

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 ...
