Researchers identified a new, sticky form of mitochondrial DNA damage that builds up at dramatically higher levels than in nuclear DNA. These lesions disrupt energy production and activate ...

Management of mitochondrial-related heart disease relies on multidisciplinary care and symptom control, as targeted gene-editing therapies are limited.

Researchers discover that insect sex systems influence the speed of mitochondrial evolution, impacting biodiversity tracking ...

Mutations accumulated in mitochondrial DNA associated with aging were earlier believed to cause aging by decreasing the energy-producing function (mitochondrial respiratory function). In this study, ...
