BREAKING NEWS! Mitochondria has been linked to cancer! In 1955, Otto Warburg a Nobel Prize winner did a study on mitochondria attribution to cancer. He found out that mitochondria cells contribute to energy production ( ATP) were damaged they form irreversible damage!
in each cell the mitochondria undergoes a process called fission where the ATP splits into 2 cells. But, when the mitochondria is damaged the fission does not occur and it becomes cancerous. I wouldn’t vote for this Organelle if I were you!
ELECTION DAY IS TOMORROW! #whosready Thank you all for following me on this campaign journey and I hope to have your vote at the polls! And remember, vote #roughergov! #AHCOrangelleCampaign2018
There is a new study that has come to light saying that the Golgi apparatus, somewhat like the ‘post office’ of the cell, can have dysfunctions which can lead to some serious effects. Golgi dysfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s! #scary#yikes
Because of our rough outer layer, we are a strong candidate for governor! We will stay strong throughout our term and will do everything to keep my fellow organelles safe! #AHCOrangelleCampaign2018
Who are you acting all high and mighty in your own little kingdom? Well guess what? You’re not that special! Look at all those Red Blood Cells THRIVING without you #burned#ouch#AHCOrganelleCampaign2018
Mitochondrial disease? What’s that? Let me explain. Mitochondrial disease results from failures of the mitochondrion. It occurs from a genetic mutation and has symptoms including muscle weakness, fatigue, and seizures! #yikes! It’s a disease that can never be cured #majoryikes
Wondering how we go out name? The first part comes from the term Endoplasm, which is the inner part of the Cytoplasm of a cell. Reticulum actually means “a fine network”. So Endoplasmic Reticulum actually means “a fine network present in the inner part of the Cytoplasm”. #facts
As you can see from my previous tweet, without me, the proteins would not have a place to go after leaving the nucleus and would not be sent to the Golgi apparatus. #theyneedme
The nucleus creates the proteins and then sends them out though its pores to the rest of the cell. Then, the ER receives the proteins and sends them to the Golgi apparatus to be packaged, sorted, and delivered. #team player #carryingtheweight#organelleelections
Let me formally introduce myself to all of my new followers. I am the Endoplasmic Reticulum and I am made up of double membrane channels throughout the cytoplasm. Ribosomes are attached to my membrane which is why I am rough. And remember, vote @rougherprez! #organelleelections
Cytoskeleton variation has been discovered as the reason for many diseases including cardiovascular disease syndromes, neurodegeneration, cancer, liver cirrhosis, pulmonary fibrosis, and blistering skin diseases. #yikes#yourenotmygov
