Mitochondrial Involvement in the Molecular Mechanisms of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in the Heart
Mitochondria are responsible for maintaining cell viability and essential biological activities by producing energy (ATP). These organelles are also a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a number of apoptosis inducers. The importance of mitochondria in a variety of areas of cell physiology and pathology, such as intracellular signaling, has been demonstrated. Mitochondria…
