Mitochondria play a crucial role in acquiring pluripotency and determining cell fate. The mitochondrial unfolded protein ...

As we age, blood stem cells, the essential source of new blood cells in the body, can accumulate genetic mutations. These ...

Researchers are studying why the energy factories are moving between cells and whether the process can be harnessed to treat ...

A new study reveals how the Dnmt3a mutation drives blood stem cell overgrowth, contributing to clonal hematopoiesis and ...

Damage to the genetic material of mitochondria—the mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA for short—can lead to diseases such as ...

Scientists created a stem cell-based method to produce high-quality mitochondria at scale, enabling effective treatments for ...

Damaged mitochondria are recycled within cells. Scientists find a link between cellular health and diseases like Parkinson’s ...

Scientists say they have discovered how a group of proteins linked to Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis act as 'guardians' of mitochondria, small organelles, or subunits, within a ...

Damage to the mitochondria, the 'power plants' of the cells, contributes to many diseases. Researchers now describe how cells with defective mitochondria activate a special recycling system to ...

To maintain the balance of calcium within mitochondria, cells rely on a protein known as the mitochondrial sodium-calcium exchanger, or NCLX. Now, scientists at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine ...
