drp-1 and fis-2 function independent of one another and the Bcl-2 homolog CED-9 and downstream of the CED-3 caspase to promote elimination of mitochondria in dying cells, an event that could ...

When mitochondria are damaged, they can release DNA fragments into the cytoplasm in a way that is reminiscent of viral infection, alerting the immune system to danger. In many cancers, however ...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) from mitochondria are key drivers of genetic ... releasing their DNA into the cytoplasm of the cell. This release causes DNA damage and genomic instability.
