Mitochondrial diseases, caused by mutations in either nuclear or mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), currently have limited treatment options. For mtDNA mutations, reducing mutant-to-wild-type mtDNA ratio (heteroplasmy shift) is a promising therapeutic option, though current approaches face significant challenges. Previous research has shown that severe mitochondrial dysfunction triggers an adaptive nuclear epigenetic response, characterized by changes in DNA methylation, which does not occur or is less important when mitochondrial impairment is subtle.

The bone is a highly dynamic organ that undergoes continuous remodeling through an intricate balance of bone formation and degradation. Hyperactivation of the bone-degrading cells, the osteoclasts (OCs), occurs in disease conditions and hormonal changes in females, resulting in osteoporosis, a disease characterized by altered microarchitecture of the bone tissue, and increased bone fragility. Thus, building robust assays to quantify OC resorptive activity to examine the molecular mechanisms underlying bone degradation is critical.

Historiography is a vital perspective of our scientific literature that charts the evolution of scientific publishing, from its early origins to the present status. The key transformations including the shift from a limited self-published legacy to specialized and professional peer-reviewed journals, the impact of technological advancements, and the emergence of new profitable business models are learning points for the future course and couture. Science is pursued and persevered by real humans in social and cultural contexts and not in isolation of laboratories or clinics.
