Using the same proteomic approach, China Geeta Upadhyay, we now focused on the mitochondrial fraction of bTC3 cells grown on the same Uniformed Services University of the zirconia substrates and characterized the morphological and proteomic modifications Health Sciences, United States Gian Maria Fimia, induced by the nanostructure. The results suggest that, in bTC3 cells, mitochondria Sapienza University of Rome, Italy are perturbed by the nanotopography and activate a program involving metabolism *Correspondence: modification and modulation of their interplay with other organelles. Data were confirmed Carla Perego in INS1E, a different b-cell model.
