This study shows that adiponectin protects beta-cells from obesity-induced damage and restores insulin secretion by reversing mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative phosphorylation impairment.

This study quantifies how different calcium concentrations affect mitochondrial respiration in mouse liver mitochondria and hepatocytes, finding an optimal range for oxidative phosphorylation.

This study investigates how caloric restriction affects mitochondrial function in rat kidneys, finding increased calcium uptake and MICU2 loss, contrasting with effects in brain and liver.

This study examines how short-term caloric restriction affects mitochondrial function in cardiac and skeletal muscle, finding tissue-specific changes in bioenergetics but not in calcium handling or mPT susceptibility.
