This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3 and SDG 9. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been identified as a hallmark of aging, playing a central role in age-associated decline ...

We can all recognise that feeling of muscle fatigue after taking a brisk walk, cycling, running or playing football. Our ability to engage in physical activity for long periods of time is thanks to ...

We could be a step closer to “recharging aging tissues” in humans, which would be a game changer for modern medicine. This is the welcome discovery of scientists at Texas A&M University who may have ...

Mitochondria are involved in apoptosis, necrosis, pyroptosis, and iron death. At present, the research on cell apoptosis is relatively thorough, and the mechanism of mitochondria in it has also been ...

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 ...

Unlike our organs, cell organelles such as mitochondria are not fixed in place, but when, where, how, and why organelles move remain unclear. Research published in the Biophysical Journal shows that ...

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, a ...

Mitochondrial respiratory complexes (Complexes I–V) and their assembly into respiratory supercomplexes (SCs) are fundamental to liver bioenergetics, redox homeostasis, and metabolic adaptability.
