Mitochondria isolated from onions entered lung immune cells in mice and restored their energy balance, revealing an ...

A study on ground squirrels shows, not only do mitochondria produce bioenergy in the cone-shaped photoreceptors in the retina of the eye, they also act as micro-lenses that redirect light to the ...

A new study from The University of Texas at Arlington has revealed how cells control their mitochondria—the "energy producers ...

Using new super-resolution microscopes, researchers at the University of California, Irvine and the University of Pennsylvania have for the first time observed electrical charge and discharge ...

Cells are full of little machines that perform critical functions, like mitochondria, which are known as the powerhouses of the cell. But new research has revealed that in photoreceptor cells, ...

A new study represents a first step towards generating highly detailed 3-dimensional maps of lung tumors using genetically engineered mouse models. Scientists have long known that mitochondria, the ...

Scientists have recently reviewed the available literature to examine the critical roles played by mitochondria in maintaining homeostasis. The review summarized the involvement of mitochondria in age ...

Many of us remember from high school biology class that mitochondria are the cell’s “power plants.” These small kidney-bean-shaped structures are what convert nutrients from food into ATP — the cell’s ...

Nearly every cell in your body depends on mitochondria to survive and function properly. Mitochondria earned the nickname “powerhouse of the cell” because they provide 90% of our bodies’ energy. Less ...

A study led by EPFL shows that Urolithin A, a natural compound, can abolish high anxiety in rats by repairing mitochondrial function in their brain cells, specifically in the nucleus accumbens. The ...
