Optogenetic Regulation of Mitochondrial Function to Modulate Cell Death

2026-07-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cell death is a critical process involved in physiological and pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. This study explores the use of optogenetic techniques to induce cell death by employing light sensitive proteins. By manipulating mitochondrial function with light-sensitive proteins, we investigated three distinct strategies: 1) inhibiting oxidative phosphoryl...
