Mitochondrial myopathies [PDF]
British Medical Bulletin, 1989 The mitochondrial myopathies give rise to a diverse group of clinical syndromes, variably involving skeletal muscle and the central nervous system, with onset in childhood or adult life. In vitro studies of mitochondrial metabolism have identified a variety of functional defects of the respiratory chain, predominantly affecting complex I or complex III

Regular exercise attenuates alcoholic myopathy in zebrafish by modulating mitochondrial homeostasis.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Alcoholic myopathy is caused by chronic consumption of alcohol (ethanol) and is characterized by weakness and atrophy of skeletal muscle. Regular exercise is one of the important ways to prevent or alleviate skeletal muscle myopathy.

Mitochondrial Myopathies [PDF]
Archives of Neurology, 1998 One of the great challenges in molecular biology is to understand the mechanisms by which a particular genetic defect gives rise to the disease or diseases associated with it. Mitochondrial myopathies are no exception. This review emphasizes some of the important mechanisms that can modify the phenotypic expression of the genetic disorders seen in ...
