- Reposted by Cambridge Clinical Mitochondrial Research GroupThis ‘fundamental’ study uncovers how directing pyruvate into mitochondria can shrink cells by shifting their metabolism away from building amino acids and proteins. buff.ly/hFHjKy9
- Some amazing work that's all over the News this morning. This important work is co-funded by @lifearc.bsky.social who also co-fund our LifeArc Centre for Rare Mitochondrial Diseases bit.ly/4moq7xV #rarediseases #LifeArc
