Regulation of Mitochondrial Dynamics and Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]
Mitochondria are important cellular organelles in most metabolic processes and have a highly dynamic nature, undergoing frequent fission and fusion. The dynamic balance between fission and fusion plays critical roles in mitochondrial functions. In recent

Moving towards clinical trials for mitochondrial diseases
Primary mitochondrial diseases represent some of the most common and severe inherited metabolic disorders, affecting ~1 in 4,300 live births. The clinical and molecular diversity typified by mitochondrial diseases has contributed to the lack of licensed ...

Indicators of mitochondrial disease [PDF]
In the article, the authors hypothesize that hepatosteatosis with unknown etiology presented by group of pediat-ric patients may be mitochondrial disease. They attribute their idea to mitochondrial structural abnormalities detected through electron microscopy examination.

Mapping gene associations in human mitochondria using clinical disease phenotypes [PDF]
Nuclear genes encode most mitochondrial proteins, and their mutations cause diverse and debilitating clinical disorders. To date, 1,200 of these mitochondrial genes have been recorded, while no standardized catalog exists of the associated clinical ...

In vitro characterization of mitochondrial function and structure in rat and human cells with a deficiency of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase Ndufc2 subunit [PDF]
Ndufc2, a subunit of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, plays a key role in the assembly and activity of complex I within the mitochondrial OXPHOS chain. Its deficiency has been shown to be involved in diabetes, cancer and stroke.

Mitochondrial heterogeneity in diseases
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,
