Researchers have found a way to revive tired or damaged cells by giving them a fresh supply of mitochondria, the tiny ...

YOU MIGHT KNOW them as the “powerhouses of the cell,” but that’s selling mitochondria short—these microscopic MVPs play a ...

This study shows that vacancy-engineered MoS₂ nanoflowers drive mitochondrial biogenesis in human mesenchymal stem cells by ...

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 ...

Scientists are learning how to revive faltering human cells by loading them with fresh power plants, effectively repairing ...

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 ...

Scientists have discovered how a mitochondrial mutation rewires immune function in a model of inherited primary mitochondrial ...

The findings may have important implications for diseases linked to mitochondrial dysfunction. A newly identified form of DNA damage inside mitochondria, the small structures that supply energy to our ...

Maintaining long-term health has become a major challenge, driving research into ways to extend “healthspan” rather than ...
