All 17 factors were shared by at least two of the conditions, but there were no meta-analyses on relationships between late-life depression and 11 of the health measures: alcohol intake ...

and depression. Synapses need a lot of energy to stay connected and process information. When mitochondria don't work properly, it can disrupt the functional capacity of these cell-cell ...

Mapping the density, molecular features and energy-transformation capacity of cell organelles called mitochondria in the brain reveals region- and cell-type-specific variability that tracks with ...
