Doctors and midwives at Papua new Guinea’s main hospital have accused the state-owned ... Scientists just discovered a single ...

New mechanisms discovered that show how development-dependent disruptions in mitochondrial function lead to premature skeletal aging. An interdisciplinary research team led by Professor Dr Bent ...

The study was published under the title "Metabolic rewiring caused by mitochondrial dysfunction promotes mTORC1-dependent skeletal aging" in Science Advances. The researchers undertook a specific ...

With only a limited number of existing mitochondrial targeting sequences, a new study from the Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology demonstrates the utility of generative artificial ...

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) editing has emerged as a revolutionary approach in the fight against neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). As these diseases continue to impose a significant global health ...

Fifty years since its discovery, scientists have finally worked out how a molecular machine found in mitochondria, the 'powerhouses' of our cells, allows us to make the fuel we need from sugars ...

Mitochondrial diseases affect approximately 1 in 5,000 people worldwide, causing debilitating symptoms ranging from muscle weakness to stroke-like episodes. Some of these conditions result from ...

According to McCarthy, elamipretide is an at-home once-daily subcutaneous injection designed to restore mitochondrial bioenergetics and protect photoreceptors, thus possibly improving vision.

Mitochondria are often referred to as the energy factories of cells, generating ATP that the body employs for numerous tasks. Nonetheless, our mitochondria’s operation tends to deteriorate as we ...
