Mitochondrial disease in children [PDF]
Mitochondrial disease presenting in childhood is characterized by clinical, biochemical and genetic complexity. Some children are affected by canonical syndromes, but the majority have nonclassical multisystemic disease presentations involving virtually ...

The biology of mitochondrial disease [PDF]
Mitochondria are subcellular organelles that constitute a metabolic compartment separated from the general cytoplasm by a double layered membrane. The outer membrane serves to regulate access of proteins and metabolites to the mitochondrial compartment, and the convoluted inner mitochondrial membrane is the site of several multicomponent enzyme systems.

Mitochondrial diseases are a group of genetic disorders that are characterized by defects in oxidative phosphorylation and caused by mutations in genes in the nuclear DNA (nDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) that encode structural mitochondrial proteins or proteins involved in mitochondrial function.

Improved Dried Blood Spot-Based Metabolomics: A Targeted, Broad-Spectrum, Single-Injection Method
Dried blood spots (DBS) have proven to be a powerful sampling and storage method for newborn screening and many other applications. However, DBS methods have not yet been optimized for broad-spectrum targeted metabolomic analysis.

Metabolic effects of bezafibrate in mitochondrial disease
Mitochondrial disorders affect 1/5,000 and have no cure. Inducing mitochondrial biogenesis with bezafibrate improves mitochondrial function in animal models, but there are no comparable human studies. We performed an open‐label observational experimental

Mitochondrial diseases in adults [PDF]
AbstractMitochondrial medicine is a field that expanded exponentially in the last 30 years. Individually rare, mitochondrial diseases as a whole are probably the most frequent genetic disorder in adults. The complexity of their genotype–phenotype correlation, in terms of penetrance and clinical expressivity, natural history and diagnostic algorithm ...
