The complete mitochondrial genome of from South China Sea was first determined in this study, which is 16,596 bp in length. The base composition of the mitogenome is a less biased (A, G, T, and C was 21.5%, 26.3%, 37.0%, and 15.2%, respectively) with A + T contents of 58%. It consists of 24 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and 12 protein-coding genes (PCGs). No typical control region was found in non-coding sequence. Interestingly, ATP8 genes was absence same as most shellfish. Nine PCGs use a special start codon TTG, and the other three genes use a normal initiation codon ATN. Except ND6 use a single base G as the stop codon, the others all end with the normal stop codon TAG. The phylogenetic tree showed that was first clustered with , , and , which all belong to Cardiidae.

The origin of domestic sheep (Ovis aries) can be traced back to the Asian mouflon (Ovis gmelini), in the Near East around 10 000 years ago. Genetic divergence within mouflon populations can occur due to factors such as geographical isolation, social structures, and environmental pressures, leading to different affinities with domestic sheep. However, few studies have reported the extent to which mouflon sheep contribute to domestic sheep in different regions.

Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is a polymer that consists of a series of orthophosphates connected by high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds, like those found in ATP. In mammalian mitochondria, polyP has been linked to the activation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). However, the details of this process are not completely understood.

Cancer photoimmunotherapy represents an intelligent and highly efficient therapeutic approach that harnesses the photothermal effect to precisely target and ablate tumor tissues, while simultaneously modulating the immune system to achieve tumor elimination. The integration of multifunctional therapeutic modalities for combined photoimmunotherapy requires advanced drug delivery systems. However, the design of a single nanoagent capable of serving as a multifunctional nanophotosensitizer remains a significant challenge.

Background: The mitochondrial cascade hypothesis suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease dementia. Recent data have shown that mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) in human blood is associated with dementia risk and cognitive function, but which specific cognitive measures or domains are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and whether this relationship is affected by health deterioration such as physical frailty or mitochondrial somatic mutations is not clear.

Methods: We measured mtDNAcn and heteroplasmies using fastMitoCalc and MitoCaller, respectively, from UK Biobank Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) data at study entry (2006-2010).

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology begins decades before clinical onset of dementia. Amyloid beta (Aβ) generally accumulates first in cognitively normal (ND) individuals, with tau and cognitive abnormalities following. AD pathologies have been found to correlate and interact with metabolic and mitochondrial outcomes in studies spanning numerous experimental paradigms.
