Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the ...

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

A new study focused on the immune system's Th17 cells suggests that the shape and function of their mitochondria (the powerhouse of cells) is important in autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, such ...

Mitochondria are responsible for producing and providing energy to our bodies, especially in organs such as the heart, brain, and muscles, which require high-energy production. These organs ...

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 ...

Yale researchers revealed how vitamin B5 fuels mitochondria, offering new insight into brain and metabolic disorders. The human body produces a molecule from vitamin B5 that plays a crucial role in ...

A study conducted by researchers at the Center for Redox Processes in Biomedicine (Redoxoma) has shown that ATP-sensitive ...

This mitochondrial process supports the brain cells essential to learning, memory and social recognition. We know that mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell, but what role do they play in ...

New findings in mice have uncovered a crucial mechanism linking neuronal activity to mitochondrial function, researchers report, revealing a potential pathway to combat age-related cognitive decline.

Virginia Tech researchers are investigating how overloaded mitochondria in the brain’s memory circuits may spark early Alzheimer’s damage. Their work focuses on calcium signaling and how it might ...

CRISPR-based tools can’t easily access the DNA in these organelles, but researchers are finding other ways in.
