Aging taps us on the shoulder in many ways: wrinkles, thinning hair, loss of flexibility, slowing of the brain. But the process also unfolds at a more fundamental, microscopic level, as the energy ...

The mitochondria, perhaps better known as the powerhouses of cells, are emerging as a possible factor in the pains of aging. Some scientists are of the mind that poor mitochondrial health can lead to ...

A new platform for studying mitochondrial DNA mutations implicated in human disease could revolutionize research in health, disease and evolution, and accelerate efforts to develop treatments for ...
