Insufficient or dysregulated energy metabolism may underlie diverse inherited and degenerative diseases, cancer, and even aging itself. ATP is the central energy carrier in cells, but critical pathway
Activities of complex I–III (C I–III), complex II-III (C II–III) and complex IV (C IV) of isolated mitochondria from experimental groups expressed as percentage of the Control group. Data are shown as
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) 3243A>G tRNALeu(UUR) heteroplasmic mutation (m.3243A>G) exhibits clinically heterogeneous phenotypes. While the high mtDNA heteroplasmy exceeding a critical threshold causes
