Mitochondrial Dynamics in Mitochondrial Diseases
Diseases, 2016 Mitochondria are very versatile organelles in continuous fusion and fission processes in response to various cellular signals. Mitochondrial dynamics, including mitochondrial fission/fusion, movements and turnover, are essential for the mitochondrial ...

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2016 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.

Treatment for mitochondrial diseases [PDF]
Reviews in the Neurosciences, 2020 Abstract Mitochondrial diseases are predominantly caused by mutations of mitochondrial or nuclear DNA, resulting in multisystem defects. Current treatments are largely supportive, and the disorders progress relentlessly. Nutritional supplements, pharmacological agents and physical therapies have been used in different clinical trials ...

Mitochondrial Disease and Stroke [PDF]
Stroke, 2001 It is well known that some mitochondrial disorders are responsible for ischemic cerebral infarction in young patients. Our purpose was to determine, in this prospective ongoing study, whether ischemic stroke is the only manifestation of a mitochondrial disorder in young patients.Patients aged

Redox Biology, 2022 Alternations of redox metabolism have been associated with the extension of lifespan in roundworm Caenorhabditis elegans, caused by moderate mitochondrial dysfunction, although the underlying signalling cascades are largely unknown.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2004 By convention, the term "mitochondrial diseases" refers to disorders of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which is the only metabolic pathway in the cell that is under the dual control of the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) and the nuclear genome (nDNA).

Mitochondrial heterogeneity in diseases
Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023 AbstractAs key organelles involved in cellular metabolism, mitochondria frequently undergo adaptive changes in morphology, components and functions in response to various environmental stresses and cellular demands. Previous studies of mitochondria research have gradually evolved, from focusing on morphological change analysis to systematic multiomics,

Clinically translatable mitochondrial gene therapy in muscle using tandem mtZFN architecture
EMBO Molecular MedicineMutations in the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) often lead to clinical pathologies. Mitochondrially-targeted zinc finger nucleases (mtZFNs) have been successful in reducing the levels of mutation-bearing mtDNA both in vivo and in vitro, resulting in a ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is an inflammatory mediator linked to acute chest syndrome (ACS) in sickle cell disease (SCD), a serious complication that can develop during an acute vaso‐occlusive pain episode (VOE). Plasma sPLA2 levels have been proposed as a potential biomarker for predicting ACS onset.

Neuroimaging of mitochondrial disease [PDF]
Mitochondrion, 2008 Mitochondrial disease represents a heterogeneous group of genetic disorders that require a variety of diagnostic tests for proper determination. Neuroimaging may play a significant role in diagnosis. The various modalities of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allow for multiple independent detection procedures that can give important anatomical ...
