From the first sighting of a colossal squid in the wild to a seriously goofy octopus, 2025 delivered some astounding photos from the ocean’s depths

Neurons often receive organelles called mitochondria from other cells. It emerges that neurons donate mitochondria that support cancer-cell spread.

Cancer-associated neurons can transfer their mitochondria to cancer cells, boosting their metabolism and function. Mitochondria might also serve as a measure of risk of metastases. Future therapies co...

Cancer cells can acquire energy-generating structures called mitochondria from nearby nerve cells, which seems to aid their spread, a discovery that could lead to new treatments

A study reports the development of a method to trace intercellular transfer of mitochondria, and demonstrates that cancer cells that receive mitochondria from neurons have enhanced metastatic capabilities.

Marine creatures house contraband structures in special organelles, which the animal raids for food in times of need.

Neurons often receive organelles called mitochondria from other cells. It emerges that neurons donate mitochondria that support cancer-cell spread.

The theft probably helps the cells to spread around the body, and preventing it could provide a path to treatment, researchers say.

Scientists spot mitochondria traveling through “bridges” into nearby cancer cells
