Reporter and Curator: Dr. Sudipta Saha, Ph.D. Leigh syndrome is one of the hundreds of so-called mitochondrial diseases, which are caused by defects in the mitochondria that produce 90 percent of the body’s energy. These disorders are rare; about 1,000 to 4,000 babies in the United States are born with one every year. But they are devastating and […]

Reporter and Curator: Dr. Sudipta Saha, Ph.D. Mitochondrial disease Mitochondria are present in almost all human cells, and vary in number from a few tens to many thousands. They generate the majority of a cell’s energy supply which powers every part of our body. Mitochondria have their own separate DNA, which carries just […]
Drugs that activate this novel stress response pathway, which they call the mitochondrial-to-cytosolic stress response, protected both nematodes and cultured human cells with Huntington´s disease from protein-folding damage.

Drugs that activate this novel stress response pathway, which they call the mitochondrial-to-cytosolic stress response, protected both nematodes and cultured human cells with Huntington´s disease from protein-folding damage. Reporter: Aviva Lev-Ari, PhD, RN “Maybe there is a way to use one drug to alter the mitochondrial signal and another drug to alter the communciation […]
