A research team from the International Research Center for Medical Sciences (IRCMS) at Kumamoto University has identified a ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a previously unrecognized role of mitochondrial protein synthesis in the maintenance of intracellular iron distribution. Disruption of this process was found to ...

Researchers at the University of Gothenburg have identified a small molecule, PZL-A, that restores function in the defective ...

The same biological processes that drive aging — such as energy loss — may also contribute to lung diseases like chronic ...

An activator of DNA polymerase γ restores function to disease-causing mutant variants and demonstrates a potential route to treatments for inherited mitochondrial disorders involving POLG mutations.

A medical breakthrough could result in the first treatment for rare but serious diseases in which genetic defects disrupt cellular energy production. Researchers have identified a molecule that helps ...

Mitochondrial diseases, arising from mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), are a diverse group of disorders that lead to ...

A medical breakthrough could result in the first treatment for rare but serious diseases in which genetic defects disrupt ...

When the mechanisms that replicate or repair mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fail, it can cause a wide range of syndromes for which ...

A medical breakthrough could result in the first treatment for rare but serious diseases in which genetic defects disrupt cellular energy production.
