    • How do Animal Mitochondria Tolerate Water Stress?

      Mitochondria frozen with trehalose retain a number of biological functions and preserve outer membrane integrity. Cell Death Differ 2007; 14:616-24. 23. Liu XH, Aksan A, Menze MA, Hand SC, Toner M. Trehalose loading through the mitochondrial permeability transition pore enhances desiccation tolerance in rat liver mitochondria.

    • Connexin 43 in Mitochondria: What Do We Really Know About Its Function?

      when open. Connexins have also been detected within mitochondria, with mitochondrial connexin 43 (Cx43) being the best studied to date. In this review, we discuss evidence for Cx43 presence in mitochondria of cell lines, primary cells and organs and summarize data on its localization, import and phosphorylation status.

      cells the mitochondria are most important cell organelles. These are lacking in bacterial cells. Mitochondria(mito=thread chondrion=granule) are thread like or granular structures are also called as “power house” of cells one associated with aerobic respiration. These are the sites of cellular respiration, primarily

      Although mitochondria are now recognized to regulate several cellular functions, these organelles are most known for their role as powerhouses. Thus, a logical prediction tested by Cunniff et al. (2) is that a cell positions mitochondria in regions of high energy demand, such as the leading edge of a migrating cell. Indeed, they

    • Evolution of the mitochondrial fusion ssion cycle and its role in aging

      of the genes required for mitochondrial functions encoded within mtDNA. Nevertheless, mitochondria undergo their own cycles of replication and removal within the cell; thus, there is turnover of mitochondria in both mitotic and postmitotic cells, which pro-vides opportunities for selection at the level of the organelle.

      Poorly functioning mitochondria cannot provide enough energy for cells. They also may be unable to perform other functions including removing areas of cell damage and conducting many other types of chemical reactions. We now know that mitochondria do countless things in addition to supplying energy, and their other functions are

    • Do Mitochondria Produce Oxygen Radicals in vivo?

      6. The results are discussed in terms of a radical-generating mechanism which functions in rive at the level of the mitochondrial electron-transferring system. It is well established that isolated mitochondria produce superoxide radicals when incubated with succinatc and antiinycin A [I. 21. Furthermore. there

    • Protein import into mitochondria: origins and functions today (Review)

      Mitochondria are organelles derived from a-proteobacteria over the course of one to two billion years. Mitochondria from the major eukaryotic lineages display some variation in functions and coding capacity but sequence analysis demonstrates them to be derived from a single common ancestral endosymbiont.

Role of Mitochondria It is believed that a fundamental mechanism for animal aging is the oxygen stress suffered by the mitochondrial genome. The oxygen stress-mitochondria mutation theory hypothesizes that cell senescence is due to genetic damage by oxygen radicals derived from

      Mitochondria power eukaryotic cells, which are cells that contain a nucleus and organelles. They create energy (ATP) by breaking down fatty acids found in food and regulating cellular metabolism. Mitochondria also have their own DNA, mtDNA, that plays an important role in how energy is used throughout the body. As the body ages, so do mitochondria,
