Forcing contacts between mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum extends lifespan in a <i>Drosophila</i> model of Alzheimer’s disease

2019-07-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Eukaryotic cells are complex systems containing internal compartments with specialised functions. Among these compartments, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a major role in processing proteins for modification and delivery to other organelles, whereas mitochondria generate energy in the form of ATP. Mitochondria and the ER form physical interactions, defined as mitochondria-ER contact sites...
