Researchers use RNAi to reveal dozens of genes which could represent new therapeutic targets for treating Parkinson's disease. Read More
Researchers discover a cause of aging in mammals which they believe could be reversible. Read More
A new study sheds light on how diet can help control seizures in those with epilepsy. Read More
Researchers report veterans suffering Gulf War illness have impaired mitochondrial function. Read More
Some retinal nerve cells shed mitochondria so that neighboring astrocytes can break them down. Read More
Researchers report finding greater rates of mitochondrial mutations in the offspring of older mothers, as well as the mothers themselves. Read More
