BMC Immunology invites researchers to contribute to our upcoming Collection on Mitochondria function in infection and immunity. Mitochondria, once solely recognized as the cell's powerhouse, now play pivotal roles in immune responses and infectious diseases. This Collection aims to compile cutting-edge research exploring the multifaceted roles of mitochondria in innate immunity, inflammation, and their implications for various diseases. Submissions covering diverse topics, including mitochondrial dynamics in immune cells, signaling pathways in inflammation, pathogen recognition, host defense mechanisms, crosstalk with innate immunity, mitochondrial involvement in disease states, and therapeutic targeting, are encouraged.
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3: Good Health and Wellbeing.
