Metabolic Rewiring: Nerve Cells With Energy Saving Program – SciTechDaily
Thanks to a metabolic adjustment, the cells can remain functional despite damage to the mitochondria. Mitochondria are the power plants of our cells and play an important role in providing energy for normal function of the tissues in our body. Nerve cells are…

Thanks to a metabolic adjustment, the cells can remain functional despite damage to the mitochondria.
Mitochondria are the power plants of our cells and play an important role in providing energy for normal function of the tissues in our body. Nerve cells are particularly dependent on mitochondria for their activity and decreased mitochondrial function is seen in bo…
