    Mitochondria have their own separate fatty acid synthesis mechanism

    This post on Phys.org just caught my eye. I didn't realize there was a distinct mitochondrial cycle for this essential part of cell metabolism. Here's the primary citation. This is the first I have heard of MEPAN and the foundation to study it. This devastating disease could be a key to the...

    Mitochondria May Hold Keys to Anxiety and Mental Health

    https://www.quantamagazine.org/mitochondria-may-hold-keys-to-anxiety-and-mental-health-20200810/ Research hints that the energy-generating organelles of cells may play a surprisingly pivotal role in mediating anxiety and depression.

    Attention and capacity limits in perception: A cellular metabolism account, Bruckmaier et al, 2020

    Saw this, thought of us. I'm not up to reading the paper (abstract and link below), so haven't assessed its quality, but the article in neuroscience news is interesting. Perhaps this sort of phenomenon might help to explain why an ME brain is particularly prone to falling over with too much...

    A cnidarian parasite of salmon (Myxozoa: Henneguya) lacks a mitochondrial genome (2020). Yahalomi D, et al

    Not strictly health news, but an interesting development in understanding the role of mitochondria. "The myxozoan cells retain structures deemed mitochondrion-related organelles, but have lost genes related to aerobic respiration and mitochondrial genome replication. Our discovery shows that...

    Mitochondrial stress causes neuronal dysfunction via an ATF4-dependent increase in L-2-hydroxyglutarate (2019) Hunt et al

    Abstract Mitochondrial stress contributes to a range of neurological diseases. Mitonuclear signaling pathways triggered by mitochondrial stress remodel cellular physiology and metabolism. How these signaling mechanisms contribute to neuronal dysfunction and disease is poorly understood. We find...
