Bidirectional signaling between the nucleus and mitochondria. Communication exists between the nucleus and the mitochondria with evidence that nuclear stresses, such as DNA damage, trigger a mitochondrial response. Similarly, mitochondrial stresses, such as protein aggregates, stimulate a retrograde response to the nucleus. Both directions of this signaling paradigm appear intimately linked to longevity.
