Abstract
There is emerging evidence that mitochondria can move between cells, particularly from immune cells into cancers. Recent work from Zhang et al. in Cancer Cell employs single-cell RNA- and mitochondrial DNA-sequencing in co-culture experiments and patient tumor samples to detect mitochondrial transfer. However, the mechanisms, scale, and implications remain uncertain.
