Targeting mitochondria directly could improve the efficacy of a variety of drug therapies and reduce side effects

The technique works for bacterial cell division and for mitochondrial division

New study demonstrated association between blue light exposure and harmful effects on mitochondria of fruit fly cells

A newly published cryo-EM study characterizes a key step in the formation of the mitochondrial ribosome

Using super-resolution microscopy, researchers discovered that mitochondrial RNA's are packaged into tiny liquid droplets that can fuse together and break apart

New algorithm links different scales, bringing simulated cell a step closer

A better understanding of how mitochondria release energy could point to new targets for treating obesity and cancer

The study could have implications for public health and for medical procedures that replace mitochondria in human cells

A caffeine concentration equivalent to four cups of coffee promotes the movement of a regulatory protein into mitochondria, enhancing their function and protecting cardiovascular cells from damage

A new TSRI study offers a closer look at a stress-response pathway in cells called the Unfolded Protein Response
