Peroxisomes are essential cell organelles that play a vital role in lipid metabolism and cellular detoxification. To perform these functions, numerous enzymes must be correctly transported into the ...

Researchers at LSU's Pennington Biomedical Research Center have identified a previously underappreciated role for tiny ...

Figure 7. Model for the role of PRX-11 in regulating peroxisome degradation and mitochondrial homeostasis during aging. The schematic in the left panel illustrates that PRX-11 promotes age-associated ...

A new research paper was published in Volume 18 of Aging on July 6, 2026, titled “Inhibition of peroxisomal protein PRX-11 promotes longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans via enhancements to mitochondria ...

Researchers at LSU's Pennington Biomedical Research Center have identified a previously underappreciated role for tiny structures inside cells called peroxisomes in protecting insulin and maintaining ...

A pioneering study has shed new light on how subcellular organelles divide and multiply. The study, led by Professor Michael Schrader from the University of Exeter, has explored on peroxisome dynamics ...

Brooke Gardner recalls embarking on road trips, a favorite family activity, while growing up in Northern California. Her father, an oceanographer with the United States Geological Survey, would stop ...

Researchers at LSU's Pennington Biomedical Research Center have identified an important role played by tiny structures inside ...

An international research team has identified a new protein that specifically transports enzymes into peroxisomes. Its mode of action is extraordinary: It operates like a relay racer. Peroxisomes can ...
