Communications between Mitochondria and Endoplasmic Reticulum in the Regulation of Metabolic Homeostasis

Mitochondria associated membranes (MAM), which are the contact sites between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, have emerged as an important hub for signaling molecules to integrate the cellular and organelle homeostasis, thus facilitating the adaptation of energy metabolism to nutrient st...
