Scientists found that manipulating how cell's produce energy can reduce melanoma tumor growth and enhance immune response in mice. Their findings may be leveraged to create new cancer therapeutics ...

• Hypoxia regularly occurs during plant development and can be induced by the environment through, for example, flooding. • To understand how plant tissue physiology responds to progressing oxygen ...

Brain lesions beset with smoldering inflammation, and myeloid cells around their edges, define multiple sclerosis. This might be due, in part, to the flipping of electron flow within microglia, ...

A new study offers a fresh perspective on the role of sodium in mitochondrial physiology and points the way to future research into the relationship between complex I disorders and a host of neuronal ...

Mitochondrial respiratory complexes (Complexes I–V) and their assembly into respiratory supercomplexes (SCs) are fundamental to liver bioenergetics, redox homeostasis, and metabolic adaptability.
