Mitochondrial proteins are physiologically active in different compartments, and their abnormal location will trigger the pathogenesis of human mitochondrial pathologies. Correctly identifying submitochondrial locations can provide information for di...
All living systems are maintained by a constant flux of metabolic energy and, among the different reactions, the process of lipids storage and lipolysis is of fundamental importance. Current research has focused on the investigation of lipid droplets...
Over the last few years more and more organ and idiosyncratic toxicities were linked to mitochondrial toxicity. Despite well-established assays, such as the seahorse and Glucose/Galactose assay, an in silico approach to mitochondrial toxicity is stil...
Data on experimentally-characterized animal mitochondrial proteomes (mt-proteomes) are limited to a few model organisms and are scattered across multiple databases, impeding a comparative analysis. We developed two resources to address these problems...
Development of a mitochondria-targeting fluorescent probe with large Stokes shift and long-wavelength emission was benefit for accurate detection of hypoxic status, which was known as a major factor of the tumor physiology and influence important pat...

Delineation of mitochondria from electron microscopy (EM) images is crucial to investigate its morphology and distribution, which are directly linked to neural dysfunction. However, it is a challenging task due to the varied appearances, sizes and sh...
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is an important natural molecule involved in fundamental biological processes, including the TCA cycle, OXPHOS, β-oxidation, and is a co-factor for proteins promoting healthy longevity. NAD depletion is associa...
