Mitochondria-Driven Tumorigenesis: A New View of Cancer Metabolism

Are mitochondria active drivers of cancer development rather than secondary players? This article highlights a scientific review proposing that mitochondrial bioenergetics and redox signaling may play a central role in tumorigenesis and cancer therapy strategies.

Mitochondria are increasingly recognized as regulators of cellular metabolism, immune signaling, and redox balance. This review explores how mitochondrial reprogramming may actively drive tumor development and influence responses to immunotherapy.

Living Systems as Dissipative Structures

How do living systems maintain order in a universe that naturally tends toward disorder?
This article explores how thermodynamic principles explain biological organization, showing how cells maintain structure and function far from equilibrium through continuous energy flow, and how this framework helps interpret metabolism, ageing, inflammation and chronic disease.

Thermodynamics and Mitochondria

How do the laws of thermodynamics shape mitochondrial function and influence health and disease?
This article examines how fundamental physical laws govern cellular energetics, explaining mitochondrial electron flow, membrane potential, free energy and redox balance, and their implications for inflammation, adaptation and chronic disease.
