Mitochondria are essential for cell survival, repair, and adaptation. Not only do they generate most of the energy needed ...

Researchers uncover how cells internalize transplanted mitochondria, paving the way for new energy-restoring therapies for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.

The Abu-Remaileh Lab published an atlas of proteins, found in lysosomes across different brain cell types, to advance research on neurodegenerative diseases.

A study on worms led by researchers from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in the US has uncovered a previously unknown adaptation to aging that actively remodels one of the largest and most ...

Researchers have transplanted healthy mitochondria into brain cells and animal models of neurodegeneration, reporting improved energy output, reduced cell death, and temporary recovery of motor ...

Autophagy, which literally means "self-eating," is a cellular cleaning-out process that maintains our bodies in good order, but excessive autophagy can be too much of a good thing. Now Weizmann ...

The discovery of an unknown organelle inside our cells could open the door to new treatments for devastating inherited diseases. The organelle, a type of specialized structure, has been dubbed a ...

Yeast, worms, and mice remodel their endoplasmic reticulum early in the aging process. The protective shift offers potential targets to extend healthy lifespan.

Bacteria are only the only organisms that are able to 'fix' nitrogen, or remove it from the atmosphere and convert it into a useful form. While some plants seem to fix nitrogen, it is actually ...

Mitochondrial transplantation is an emerging technique aimed at restoring cellular energy production in diseases marked by ...
