Evaluation of the Genetically Diagnosed Mitochondrial Disease Cases with Neuromuscular Involvement
Objective: Due to the fact that mitochondrial diseases can involve different organ systems, neuromuscular involvement is frequently observed and has a substantial place in clinical practice. In this study, the clinical, radiological, electrophysiological

Mitochondrial complex I deficiency leads to the retardation of early embryonic development in Ndufs4 knockout mice [PDF]
Background The NDUFS4 gene encodes an 18-kD subunit of mitochondria complex I, and mutations in this gene lead to the development of a severe neurodegenerative disease called Leigh syndrome (LS) in humans.

Leigh Syndrome Mimicking Wernicke’s Encephalopathy: A Case Report
Leigh syndrome or subacute necrotizing encephalomyelopathy is a rare, rapidly progressive neurodegenerative disorder. In general, symptoms such as shortness of breath and decreased cardiac function usually occur within 1 year of life.

Leigh's Disease: The Acute Clinical Course of a Two-Year-Old Child with Subacute Necrotizing Encephalomyelopathy [PDF]
We report the untypical clinical course of a previously healthy two-year-old girl, who died suddenly and unexpectedly after an episode of vomiting. At forensic autopsy no other pathological findings could be diagnosed than multiple reddish, sunken areas ...

Genetic and Mitochondrial Metabolic Analyses of an Atypical Form of Leigh Syndrome
In this study, we aimed to establish the mitochondrial etiology of the proband’s progressive neurodegenerative disease suggestive of an atypical Leigh syndrome, by determining the proband’s pathogenic variants.
