Abstract: From the simple unicellular eukaryote to the highly complex multicellular organism like Human, mitochondrion emerges as a ubiquitous player to ensure the organism's functionality. It is popularly known as "the powerhouse of the cell" by its key role in ATP generation. However, our understanding of the physiological relevance of mitochondria is being challenged by data obtained in different fields. In this review, a short history of the mitochondria research field is presented, stressing the findings and questions that allowed the knowledge advances, and put mitochondrion as the main player of safeguarding organism life as well as a key to solve the puzzle of the neurodegenerative diseases. Keywords: Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, Cellular networks connectivity, Mitochondria 3-D architecture, Mitochondria-targeted therapy, Mitochondrial bioenergetic Bioblast editor: Plangger M
