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 ...
Newly published CU Boulder research reveals previously unknown qualities of a gene vital to a cell’s mitochondrial structure and function A key takeaway from first-year biology is that mitochondria ...
Nearly every cell in your body depends on mitochondria to survive and function properly. Mitochondria provide 90% of our ...
Scientists have developed an advanced imaging technique for studying mitochondria. These organelles are often known as the powerhouses of the cell because they generate energy, but studies have shown ...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects more than 700 million people worldwide and is caused by genetic and environmental ...
Mitochondria are remarkable shape-shifting organelles that have long been understood as the powerhouses inside our cells. But relatively little is known about how the constant fission and fusion of ...
Cancer cells transfer mitochondria through nanotubes to healthy neighboring cells, turning them into tumor-supporting accomplices, a new study shows.
