Mitochondria are essential for energy metabolism in mammals. Although they are present in virtually all eukaryotic cells, very little is known about mitochondrial segregation during mitosis in mammals. Indeed, this process was long believed to be stochastic. Nonetheless, recent findings in yeast demonstrate that, when these cells are undergoing asymmetric cell division, mitochondrial sort…
Understanding how mitochondrial metabolism impacts stem cell fate and homeostasis is a new field with promising results for both basic biology and cell therapy. In previous work, we described significant phenotypical alterations in the skin of calorically-restricted mice, especially in the epidermal and dermal adipose tissue, highly dynamic tissues maintained by stem cell pools. These alt…
