Abstract

Mitochondrial dynamics, including fission and fusion processes, play a vital role in cellular metabolism and energy homeostasis. This article explores the mechanisms of mitochondrial dynamics and their impact on metabolic regulation. We discuss how alterations in these processes contribute to metabolic disorders and highlight potential therapeutic approaches targeting mitochondrial dynamics to improve metabolic health.
