A Perspective on Accelerated Aging Caused by the Genetic Deficiency of the Metabolic Protein, OPA1
Autosomal Dominant Optic Atrophy (ADOA) is an ophthalmological condition associated primarily with mutations in the OPA1 gene. It has variable onset, sometimes juvenile, but in other patients, the disease does not manifest until adult middle age despite ...

Mitochondria are mysterious, marvelous little structures. Despite their long evolutionary history before being co-opted as eukaryotic organelles, these endosymbionts have become entrenched in eukaryotic cell function. Originally thought to be merely the “powerhouse of the cell” (as if that were not enough), interest in these organelles resurged after ...

How mitochondria produce reactive oxygen species
The production of ROS (reactive oxygen species) by mammalian mitochondria is important because it underlies oxidative damage in many pathologies and contributes to retrograde redox signalling from the organelle to the cytosol and nucleus. Superoxide (O2•−

The future of mitochondrial DNA research has the potential to uncover new insights on genetic diseases and open new opportunities to discover ways to control mitochondria and their influence on the human health and cancer. The outcomes of this work will expand the understanding of cellular respiration and disease risk.
