Mitochondria are intracellular organelles that act as powerhouses by breaking down nutrition molecules to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as cellular fuel. They have their own genetic material called mitochondrial DNA. Alterations in mitochondri...
The role of mitochondria in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) is significant. In this study, we aimed to identify diagnostic signature genes associated with OA from a set of mitochondria-related genes (MRGs). First, the gene expression profiles...
Large-scale drug discovery and repurposing is challenging. Identifying the mechanism of action (MOA) is crucial, yet current approaches are costly and low-throughput. Here we present an approach for MOA identification by profiling changes in mitochon...

As a treatment for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), which is common and fatal, mitophagy is a conserved cellular mechanism that selectively removes damaged mitochondria and is crucial for cellular homeostasis. While tumor development and re...
BACKGROUNDS: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a pervasive mental and mood disorder with complicated and heterogeneous etiology. Mitophagy, a selective autophagy of cells, specifically eliminates dysfunctional mitochondria. The mitochondria dysfunct...
PURPOSE: Mitochondria are involved in septic shock and inflammatory response syndrome, which severely affects the life security of patients. It is necessary to recognize and explore the immune-mitochondrial genes in septic shock.

BACKGROUND: Mitochondrial alterations play a crucial role in the development and progression of cancer. Dysfunctional mitochondria contribute to the acquisition of key hallmarks of cancer, including sustained proliferative signaling, evasion of growt...
BACKGROUND: Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is a critical strategy to rehabilitate marginal donor lungs, thereby increasing lung transplantation (LTx) rates. Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury inevitably occurs during LTx. Exploring the common mechanism...
Mitochondrial complex activity controls a multitude of physiological processes by regulating the cellular metabolism. Current methods for evaluating mitochondrial complex activity mainly focus on single metabolic reactions within mitochondria. These ...
