Summary "This book examines a unique assembly of coordinated mitochondrial functions that are important in regulating cell function and are of relevance in a myriad of pathophysiological situations, such as age-related neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease. The text covers themes essential for the maintenance of mitochondrial activity, including electron transport and energy production, mitochondrial biogenesis and dynamics, mitochondrial signaling, and apoptosis and autophagy. The book features chapters that are reviews of the important topics covered and are written by an impressive cadre of internationally recognized scientist"--Provided by publisher
