June 16, 2022 Researchers have reported that in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha, the number of mitochondria in the spermatozoid (sperm) is controlled by autophagy during ...
May 6, 2021 With the help of their custom-built super-resolution microscope, biophysicists have discovered where and why mitochondria divide, putting to rest controversy about the underlying molecular machinery ...
July 28, 2023 Originally, the powerhouses of higher cells, the mitochondria, were independent organisms. Researchers have investigated to what extent their metabolism has blended with that of their host cells in ...
Apr. 7, 2022 Researchers have discovered the mechanism by which the protein DELE1 detects organelle stress. This offers a possible new approach for treating neurodegenerative ...
Feb. 15, 2022 Researchers have discovered that the ancestors of legionella bacteria infected eukaryotic cells as early as two billion years ago. It happened soon after eukaryotes began to feed on bacteria. These ...
Nov. 4, 2021 A new finding offers researchers a direct way to investigate oxidative stress and its damaging effects in aging, cancer and other ...
Jan. 6, 2023 New experiments that show that eukaryotic cells can robustly control average fluctuations in organelle size. By demonstrating that organelle sizes obey a universal scaling relationship that ...
Feb. 15, 2023 Advance offers a new way of investigating diseases -- including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and different cancers -- where mitochondria are ...
Dec. 7, 2022 Modern eukaryotic cells contain numerous so-called organelles, which once used to be independent bacteria. In order to understand how these bacteria were integrated into the cells in the course of ...
Feb. 19, 2021 Disorders of the cells' energy supply can cause a number of serious diseases, but also seem to be connected to ageing. More research is needed on mitochondrial function to find future ...
