14 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
Hepatocytes, the predominant cellular constituents of the liver, exhibit the highest mitochondrial density within the human body. Remarkably, experimental insights from the latter part of the previous century involving extracellular injection of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) elucidated its potential to incite autoimmune disorders.
