Researchers from the University of Southern Denmark investigated how eight weeks of high-intensity interval training affect the structure of mitochondria—the parts of muscle cells that produce energy.

Eight weeks of HIIT increases both the number and efficiency of muscle mitochondria by expanding their energy-producing inner membranes.

Oliver Daumke's lab figures out how the inner membranes of mitochondria "get their groove" and assume the complex shapes they need to carry out crucial cellular functions. About two billion years ago, ...

Figure 2. In response to being deprived of nutrients, mitochondria fuse together and increase the number of cristae. (a) Frames from a time-lapse sequence showing two separate mitochondria fusing ...

Researchers at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) report that mitochondria depend on a newly discovered recycling mechanism. Their research demonstrates mitochondria can recycle a localized ...

This partial figure from the paper illustrates the steps taken to compare the mitochondria of young and old mice. First, thin tissue slices were imaged with an advanced imaging method called serial ...

About two billion years ago, foreign bacteria invaded the ancestor of a cell and took up permanent residence there. This symbiotic relationship was so beneficial to both organisms that it was ...
