Description
About the Book
Mitochondria are cell organelles that are enclosed by a double membrane. They produce the majority of the chemical energy required to power the biochemical reactions of the cells. They serve as the powerhouse of the cells because of their capacity to produce ATP. They have their individual set of chromosomes and are necessary for the overall cell health because they influence how cells work within the human body. They produce energy for cells to perform their functions. Furthermore, they are also essential for energy metabolism in a variety of tissues including the skeletal muscles and liver. Mitochondria play an important function in the life and death of cells. However, they are also critical for the development and pathogenesis of many human diseases, such as cardiovascular and neurodegenerative disorders, traumatic brain damage, cancer, inflammation, and diabetes. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the role of mitochondria in health and disease. It will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers in this field.Book Synopsis
