Long COVID affects an estimated 65 million people worldwide and can damage the brain, heart, blood vessels, and immune system ...

Higher levels of antimitochondrial antibodies in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus are tied to a higher risk for ...

Long COVID—defined as symptoms persisting ≥ 2 months beyond acute SARS-CoV-2 infection without alternative explanation—now ...

Results from pre-clinical studies conducted by scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center show delayed leukemic progression and improved survival; Results from Phase 1 clinical trial in ...

Biomedical researchers at Texas A&M University may have discovered a way to stop or even reverse the decline of cellular energy production—a finding that could have revolutionary effects across ...

A previously unknown type of DNA damage in the mitochondria, the tiny power plants inside our cells, could shed light on how our bodies sense and respond to stress. The findings of the UC ...

For decades, scientists have known that mitochondria, which produce energy inside our cells, malfunction in Parkinson's disease. But a critical question remained: do the failing mitochondria cause ...

Cancer cells can brainwash their neighbors. Like the CIA deploying secret agents to turn an enemy, tumors use a similar strategy to manipulate nearby cells. The tumors’ agents are mitochondria, the ...

The components of cells that provide them with energy may play an unexpected role in sleep. A study in fruit flies suggests that mitochondria in the brain help trigger sleep when they sense that the ...

Once clinical suspicion has been established for primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), the "serologic hallmark" of the autoimmune disease are anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMA), present in approximately ...

Elizabeth Jonas first got interested in mitochondria by chance. In 1995, she was a postdoctoral researcher at Yale, working at the Marine Biological Lab in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, where she was ...

Cancer cells steal energy-generating parts from nerve cells to fuel their spread to distant sites, a discovery that could improve treatments against the deadliest tumours. “This is the first time that ...
