About this Research Topic
The main goal to be explored in this Research Topic is to consolidate novel, basic and applied knowledge on the role of mitochondria in promoting physiological neuronal homeostasis, namely in pathological conditions or ageing. The area of mitochondria therapeutics has greatly advanced in recent years, and a thorough, state-of-the-art Research Topic in translational advances is long overdue.
Examples of topics:
-Bioenergetic hypothesis
-Energy dysfunction in pathology: cause and consequence.
-Metabolic disruption as therapeutic targets.
-Characterizing and promoting healthy vs. pathological ageing.
The types of manuscripts accepted include those standard to the journal, from perspectives and opinion articles, to specialized reviews and full-length original research articles.
Keywords: mitochondria, metabolism, neuron, homeostasis, energy
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
