The 55 pages that link to Mitochondria, each with the reason it gives.

• Cellular respirationRelated: It houses most aerobic respiration in eukaryotic cells.

• Oxidative stressRelated: Electron transport in mitochondria can generate reactive oxygen species.

• Adenosine triphosphateRelated: Mitochondria produce large amounts of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.

• MetabolismRelated: Mitochondria house major stages of aerobic metabolism in eukaryotes.

• MyoglobinRelated: Myoglobin supplies oxygen near mitochondria that consume it during aerobic energy production.

• Electron transport chainRelated: Its inner membrane contains the best-known eukaryotic electron transport chain.

• ATP synthaseRelated: Its inner membrane houses ATP synthase and the respiratory proton gradient.

• Cardiac muscleRelated: Cardiomyocytes rely heavily on mitochondrial ATP to sustain continuous work.

• Aerobic respirationRelated: It is the principal site of aerobic respiration in eukaryotic cells.

• Plant cellRelated: Plant cells use mitochondria to release energy from sugars, including sugars made by photosynthesis.

• Primary endosymbiosisRelated: Mitochondria provide a parallel example of bacterial ancestry within eukaryotic cells.

• SteroidogenesisRelated: The first and some final steroidogenic reactions occur in mitochondria.

• Pyruvate carboxylaseRelated: In animals, pyruvate carboxylase operates in the mitochondrial matrix.

• Thomas Cavalier-SmithRelated: Mitochondrial presence and loss figured prominently in his proposed eukaryote relationships.

• ExcavataRelated: Mitochondrial forms and losses complicate comparisons among excavate lineages.

• Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndromeRelated: Energy metabolism is studied in ME/CFS, but mitochondrial dysfunction is not a settled explanation.

• BerberineRelated: Berberine can affect mitochondrial respiration, linking cellular energy production to its metabolic effects.

• Extranuclear inheritanceRelated: Mitochondria carry genomes that can pass independently of nuclear chromosomes.

• Oxyphil cells (parathyroid)Related: The dense mitochondrial population gives oxyphil cells their characteristic eosinophilic appearance.

• Plant metabolismRelated: Plant mitochondria release energy from carbon compounds and exchange metabolites with chloroplasts.
