Despite our tendency to overeat, excessive fat accumulation was prevented in the past, as any excess weight soon impaired the physical fitness required to gather food, and to either fight or escape predators or foes. However, for the first time in human history, a large fraction of the population in affluent countries can now concomitantly indulge in ...

Mitochondrial Genetics and Disease
Journal of Child Neurology, 2014Mitochondrial disease resulting in reduced bioenergetic output can be due to mutations in either nuclear DNA–encoded or mitochondrial DNA–encoded gene products. We summarize some of the underlying principles of mitochondrial genetics that impact the diagnosis and pathogenesis of mitochondrial disorders. In addition, we present a brief overview of a new

Mitochondrial Diseases of the Brain
Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2013Neurodegenerative disorders are debilitating diseases of the brain, characterized by behavioral, motor and cognitive impairments. Ample evidence underpins mitochondrial dysfunction as a central causal factor in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Amyotrophic lateral ...

Models of mitochondrial disease
2002Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the molecular mechanisms of disease pathogenesis and describes cell and animal models of respiratory-chain disease. The models that have been developed can be used to address a number of different issues: to demonstrate whether the cause of a given respiratory-chain disease is because of a nuclear or a ...

Treatment of Mitochondrial Disease
Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 1997Defects of the mitochondrial genome are widely recognized as important causes of disease in man. Patients may present at any age with clinical symptoms that vary from acute episodes of lactic acidosis in infancy to severe neurodegenerative illness in adulthood.

Metabolomics of mitochondrial disease
Mitochondrion, 2017Mitochondrial disease (MD) diagnostics and disease progression investigations have traditionally relied very little on metabolic data, due to a lack of biomarker sensitivity and specificity. The recent drive to find novel, low intervention biomarkers and new therapeutic approaches have revived an interest in what metabolic data can offer, as presented ...

Anaesthesia and mitochondrial disease
Pediatric Anesthesia, 1998Mitochondrial diseases, or encephalomyopathies, are an uncommon, heterogeneous group of disorders with variable clinical course and presentation. Many of these patients present for surgery, or undergo anaesthesia in the course of investigation of their illness.

Mitochondrial disease and the heart
Heart, 2016### Learning objectives Mitochondrial diseases (MDs) include a wide range of clinical entities involving tissues that have high energy requirements such as heart, muscle, kidney and the endocrine system1 (figure 1). Defects in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations are the most common cause of MDs in adults.2 ,3 However, the nuclear gene defects are ...
