By invigorating the
mitochondria, SIRT3 and SIRT4 extend the life of
cells, by preventing flagging
mitochondria from developing
tiny holes (or pores)

cell death, to seep out into the rest of the
cell.
Although
mitochondria, the
tiny capsules that produce energy for the
cell, are known to play some role
in neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, the contribution of mitochondrial dynamics (mitochondrial trafficking, the regulated fusion and fission, and destruction of
mitochondria) has been less clear.
Low temperatures activate the brown - fat thermogenesis process via the sympathetic nervous system: Nerve ends
in brown fat tissue release the neurotransmitter norepinephrine, and that triggers a shift
in metabolism within the brown fat
cells, which are densely packed with
tiny biological energy reactors called

mitochondria, the
tiny energy factories found
in each living
cell.

in mitochondria,
tiny power plants within
cells that harbor their own genetic instructions apart from nuclear DNA.

cells are exposed to
mitochondria damage, a central cellular fuel gauge, the enzyme AMPK, sends an emergency alert to
mitochondria instructing them to break apart into many
tiny mitochondrial fragments.

in kidney cancer
cells causes them to stop making
mitochondria, the
tiny powerhouses of the

cells that are involved
in using fuel to make energy to power the
cells.

in nearly all your
cells.
