You might know them as the “powerhouses of the cell,” but that’s selling mitochondria short—these microscopic MVPs play a ...

Longevity science has spent decades chasing single molecules that might slow aging, but most candidates have delivered modest ...

Elizabeth Jonas first got interested in mitochondria by chance. In 1995, she was a postdoctoral researcher at Yale, working at the Marine Biological Lab in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, where she was ...

Stress definitely leads to anxiety just like isolation makes way for depression.Psychological and social experiences shape ...

James McCully was in the lab extracting tiny structures called mitochondria from cells when researchers on his team rushed in. They’d been operating on a pig heart and couldn’t get it pumping normally ...

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 ...

Mitochondrial dysfunctions are associated with a variety of pathologies, and the onset and progression of disease are accompanied by alterations in extracellular biochemical and mechanical signals.

A stressful year leads to anxiety. Lasting isolation gives way to depression. An old trauma nags until it becomes paralyzing.

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move ...

In a small study, sprint interval exercise helped to “clean-up and rebuild” cells better than steady-state moderate-intensity ...
