A new study explains how mitochondria act as “reservoirs” to store NAD for cells to use, which could help scientists come up ...

New research reveals how omega-3s, vitamin D, and exercise influence biological age, offering insights into healthier aging ...

Mitochondria are central to energy production in cells, and their dysfunction is increasingly implicated in the aging process and the pathogenesis of ...

Mitochondria organelles came from primordial bacterial endosymbionts and still preserve distinct genes for important functions like making ATP. To speed the emerging therapeutic research into the ...

Mitochondria, often seen as cellular powerhouses, play a surprising role in immune regulation. Researchers found that ...

Scientists at the University of Exeter have identified an unexpected potential contributor to human health and longevity: ...

New research shows that women who hit menopause later in life have healthier blood vessels and mitochondria and a different composition of metabolites in their blood than those who stop menstruating ...

Most animal, plant and fungal cells contain organelles called mitochondria. These descendants of a primordial bacterial endosymbiont still preserve distinct genes and are known for their ability to ...

Ziegler and his team also discovered that if mitochondria does not have enough NAD stored up, it can have a fatal consequence for the cell. “Our study connects two hallmarks of aging ...
