Mitochondria is the Master Of The Cell - Ravikumar Kurup - Bog

Mitochondria are quantal organelle capable of quantal perception in view of the iron-sulphur proteins. Mitochondrial dysfunction forms the basis of human diseases like neurodegeneration, cancer, autoimmune diseases, schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorder and diabetes mellitus. Mitochondria are energy factories of cells and are important pivots for intracellular interactions with other organelles. They interact with the endoplasmic reticulum, peroxisomes, and nucleus through signal transduction, vesicle transport, and membrane contact sites to regulate energy metabolism, biosynthesis, immune response, and cell turnover. The mitochondria are the master of the cell and the brain.
