Mitochondrial Diseases

Neurologic Clinics, 1989
Mitochondrial diseases, and particularly mitochondrial myopathies or encephalomyopathies, have drawn increasing attention in the past decade. Initially defined by morphologic changes in muscle ("ragged red fibers" and ultrastructural abnormalities of mitochondria), mitochondrial encephalomyopathies can now be classified according to biochemical defects

Neuroimaging in mitochondrial disease

2023
The anatomic complexity of the brain in combination with its high energy demands makes this organ specifically vulnerable to defects of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, neurodegeneration is a hallmark of mitochondrial diseases. The nervous system of affected individuals typically shows selective regional vulnerability leading to ...

Mitochondrial Diseases in Childhood

Current Molecular Medicine, 2014
Mitochondrial disorders are a group of heterogeneous diseases associated with abnormalities of the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), the most important source of energy for the cell. The number of mitochondrial syndromes and of identified causative genes is constantly increasing.

Mitochondrial disease

The Lancet, 2006
Defects of mitochondrial metabolism cause a wide range of human diseases that include examples from all medical subspecialties. This review updates the topic of mitochondrial diseases by reviewing the most important recent advances in this area. The factors influencing inheritance, maintenance and replication of mtDNA are reviewed and the genotype ...

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 ...

Mitochondrial Diseases of the Brain

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2013
Neurodegenerative 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 ...

Mitochondrial Genetics and Disease

Journal of Child Neurology, 2014
Mitochondrial 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.

FGF-21 as a Potential Biomarker for Mitochondrial Diseases.

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2018
The diagnosis of mitochondrial diseases is still challenging due to clinical and genetical heterogeneity. The development of advanced technologies including Whole-Exome- Sequencing (WES) and Whole-Genome-Sequencing (WGS) has led to improvements in ...
