Rather than being like battery chargers, mitochondria are more like the motherboard of the cell.

Sequences of up to 1000 sharp images of live mitochondria, the power generators of cells, were recorded at 1.5 frames-per-second. Light microscopy is the only way in which we can look inside a ...

Mitochondria turn the food we eat into the energy our cells can use. But when stress hijacks the process they use to maintain ...

With a 20-fold expansion, researchers can use a conventional light microscope to resolve about 20 nanometers. This allows them to see cell structures like microtubules and mitochondria ...

Using microscopes at the SickKids Imaging Facility, Akriti Prashar, PhD, a postdoctoral fellow in Jones’ lab and first author on the paper, identified that a mitochondria’s damaged crista can ...

Researchers reveal that mitochondria in photoreceptor cells align side-by-side via specialized tethers, enabling ...

Professor Kunji said, "Drugs inhibiting the function of the carrier can remodel how mitochondria work, which can be beneficial in certain conditions. Electron microscopy allows us to visualize ...

Mitochondria are responsible for producing and providing energy to our bodies, especially in organs such as the heart, brain, and muscles, which require high-energy production. These organs ...

Using electron microscopy and artificial intelligence to unbiasedly identify only the dendritic mitochondria within the densely packed synaptic layer, Farris's team mapped mitochondrial structure ...
