Researchers at the University of Jyväskylä have found that herpesvirus infection modifies the structure and normal function of the mitochondria in the host cell. The new information will help to ...

Mitochondrial dysfunctions are associated with a variety of pathologies, and the onset and progression of disease are accompanied by alterations in extracellular biochemical and mechanical signals.

Aging, neurological diseases and our bodies' stress response are all linked to the tiny power plants inside each cell known ...

Researchers have reconstructed transcription in human mitochondria in unprecedented detail, revealing potential drug targets ...

Brian Cunniff, an assistant professor of pathology and laboratory medicine at the University of Vermont, will discuss how the subcellular positioning of mitochondria regulates gene-expression patterns ...

Many of us remember from high school biology class that mitochondria are the cell's "power plants." These small ...

Organelles perform the fundamental processes that help cells (and hence organs, tissues, and organisms) stay alive and operative. In the past several decades, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) ...

This review focuses on the vital interconnections among lysosomes, iron metabolism, and mitochondria in osteoclasts.

Macrophages are part of the immune system's frontline; they attack and "eat" invaders to protect surrounding cells. They, along with other cells, maintain intracellular conditions through ...
