How to protect Peroxisomes and Mitochondria from Dying
The regulation of organelle abundance is critical for cell function and survival; however, the mechanisms responsible are not fully understood. Imbalances in organelle abundance can result in disease states, including Parkinson’s Disease resulting from dysregulated mitochondrial homeostasis. Peroxisome dysregulation also results in disease, most notably the Zellweger’s spectrum disorders. Although first considered to be caused exclusively by reduced peroxisome biogenesis, recently work shows that the most are due to increase […]
