Optogenetic Regulation of Mitochondrial Function to Modulate Cell Death

Cell death is a critical process involved in physiological and pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.

Cell death is a critical process involved in physiological and pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. This study explores the use of optogenetic techniques to induce cell death by employing light sensitive proteins. By manipulating…
