They discovered that the protein kinase AMPK actively inhibits a mitophagy pathway that targets functioning mitochondria (the NIX pathway) by triggering a restraining 14-3-3 interaction with the ...
Summary: Researchers used mitochondrial gene editing to model genetic disorders in mice, revealing profound impacts on brain function, metabolism, and thermoregulation. They employed a specialized DNA ...
The mitochondria act as the energy factories of our cells, creating ATP that drives our bodily functions. Inefficiencies in mitochondrial function have been associated with a variety of health ...
