Zone 2 Training: The Aerobic Workout That Rejuvenates Mitochondria
In recent years, "Zone 2 training" has become the magic word of the longevity world. The idea: to run, cycle, or walk at such a low pace that you can ...
Membrane Lipids and Mitochondria: Why Energy Declines with Age
We all know the feeling: at 50, you don't have the energy of a 25-year-old. Until now, this was explained in vague terms of 'slower metabolism'. New r...
Mitophagy and Aging: Clearing Damaged Mitochondria 2026
In every cell of your body, there are between 100 and 2,000 mitochondria, the cellular power plants. When they age and malfunction, the body needs to ...
Mitochondria and Senescence: Targeting Pathways That Ignite Zombie Cells
A senescent cell (zombie cell) is not just a cell that has stopped dividing. It is often a cell with broken mitochondria: low membrane potential, frag...
Mitochondrial Function and Aging: The Race to Prevent the Collapse of the Cellular Power Plant
Mitochondria are the cell's power plants, and every biologist agrees that when they begin to break down, aging starts to accelerate. New research repo...
Your Mitochondria Are Letting You Down – If You Train Them: The Study That Explains How
A study in PNAS shows that in old mice, exercise reorganizes muscle mitochondria and improves function, and that the improvement depends on mitochondr...
Mitochondrial DNA Structure Explains Why Your Skeleton Heals Less Well with Age
Why do bone fractures heal slower in older adults? A new study in Bone Research identifies a peculiar DNA structure that accumulates in the mitochondr...
MLKL: The Protein Meant to Kill Cells but Ages the Circulatory System
A new study in Nature Communications reveals that a protein whose role is to "kill dangerous cells" is actually one of the key drivers of blood and im...
The Mitochondrial Midlife Crisis
A new study in Nature Communications identifies the decline in the lipid Phosphatidylcholine as a factor in mitochondrial aging, and in worms, restori...
