Mitochondrial Vital Signs
Analysis and control technology for the establishment of

Mitochondria (mitochondria,ÞêØ£ô÷) Life of the cellular power plants to produce energy as well as a cell death process that plays a major role in "The Life and Death," a curator with the intracellular bodies (á³ô÷) is. Damage to mitochondrial function if we have diabetes, metabolic syndrome, cancer, dementia, brain diseases, including aging, can result in almost all chronic diseases. Chronic degenerative diseases of the human race emerged as a key health issue and believed that to give an answer to solve the human genome project turns into a failure, interest in mitochondria has been further amplified. In mitochondria, the phenomenon of life is key to understanding the vital energy in the form of electricity is created, where the electrical energy into chemical energy of ATP replaced condensed look like this, using the chemical energy of all biological reactions occur. Chemicals that appear in life (biochemistry, ûùùÊ) phenomena, so the mitochondria can not be understood properly if you do not understand.

The total production of bio energy, the total energy consumed by the biological consumption of the same, and even life energy homeostasis (homeostasis, ùößÈàõ) is maintained. Unit of mitochondrial function in the mitochondria of living with their overall metabolic rate, body weight or body mass index, and a close relationship appears. Some of the energy intake and consumption of individual organisms homeostasis, because the group of individuals from the consumption of energy which always refers to the chongseopchwiwa. These bio you my Analytics (bioenergetics) is the basis of the biophysics.
So I do not understand the mitochondria and Biophysics (biophysicis, ßæÚª×âùÊ) are able to study. Meanwhile, the mitochondria contains the DNA and the genome of the mitochondria is a key feature to adjust.
Two mitochondrial genome (genome, ë¶îîô÷) is regulated by the mitochondria, depending on the features of the many features of the nuclear DNA will be different.
The function of the nuclear DNA of mitochondrial DNA functions only on the understanding can be understood fully. In most eukaryotes, with the life forms at least two types of dielectrics by a dual-in is regulated, which mitochondria, the ancestors of the old life and a nucleus made life different symbiosis (symbiosis, Íìßæ) relationship constituted become one its origin because . So full of mitochondrial genetics on the understanding can only be incomplete. After modern humans appeared in Africa 200,000 years mankind has been changing dramatically, largely evolved past 10,000 years has created a modern civilization. Humans left Africa and spread around the world did, and mitochondria in the process of each region to adapt to the environment at a faster rate than nuclear DNA has been changed. The evolution of mankind according to the circumstances of these human mitochondrial DNA does not understand the changes can be made perfect. In this context, the environment and to attain life interactions (gene environment interaction) in the mitochondria do not understand will not be able to reach perfection. That is the phenomenon of life to understand all of the major phenomena of paradigm of the mitochondrial genome and its understanding is based, and it should be. Biochemistry, Saint (water), physics, genetics, evolutionary theory can be unified in this paradigm. Consilience (÷Öàî, consilience) is called.

Institute for mitochondrial Mitochondrial Asia Society to establish a leadership role, and in the meantime, two of Asia Society's name was to attract the two times, five times the national Association have fought.
Spring 2010 mitochondrial metabolic function, and disease control research project through the mitochondrial function and metabolic syndrome (ÓÛÞóñøý¦ÏØ, metabolic syndrome) occurs Relationship to undertake research and the research team organized by the 3rd mitochondrial symposia and, mitochondria and metabolic syndrome in Korea in various fields with the theme of mitochondrial and researchers who are conducting research that has been created to meet the chapter. Internationally active exchanges continue to be held in 2010 12 In Japan, the 7th Asia hukkuohkaeseo mitochondria, many members will attend the conference are to.
I study of mitochondria in human understanding, and understanding of the disease, as well as the resolution went a framework to understand the basics of the phenomenon of life, is believed to be an avenue consilience. Your active participation in this operation and support is needed.
Through this website for the mitochondria to the latest knowledge and research and share information on future research in the field of mitochondria can be activated by contributing to ask that.
