Some brain disorders are straightforward, such as the direct frontal lobe assault of a concussion or traumatic brain injury.

Mitochondrial biology has gained prominence as a core focus within aging research, driven by advances that underscore ...

Diabetic nephropathy (DN), characterized by progressive damage to the glomeruli and tubulointerstitial compartments, is driven by metabolic reprogramming and mitochondrial dysfunction, including ...

They fall into the following main categories: mitochondria-targeted antioxidants, modulating mitochondrial dynamics, enhancing mitochondrial quality control, potentiating mitochondrial biogenesis, ...

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 ...

Obesity has become a worldwide epidemic, dramatically increasing the incidence of disorders including type 2 diabetes, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and other cardiometabolic abnormalities. While ...

UCLA researchers found that fasting increases the splitting of mitochondria, which may have implications for metabolic and aging-related diseases. In the study published in June, scientists examined ...

Matthew Hole receives funding from the Australian government through the Australian Research Council and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), and the Simons Foundation.

Researchers have highlighted that eating a high-fat diet dismantles mitochondria via the activation of a single molecule termed RalA. Obesity is characterized by fatty tissue expanding and undergoing ...
