Abstract
Mitochondrial transplantation has emerged as a promising, though still experimental, strategy for treating mitochondria-related diseases. In a recent study in Cell, Du et al. demonstrate that packaging mitochondria within erythrocyte-derived plasma membranes enhances delivery efficiency and integration, thereby advancing the translational potential of this approach toward clinical application.
