abstract：:Mitochondria play a central role in stem cell homeostasis. Reversible switching between aerobic and anaerobic metabolism is critical for stem cell quiescence, multipotency, and differentiation, as well as for cell reprogramming. However, the effect of mitochondrial dysfunction on neural stem cell (NSC) function is uns...
