Abstract Objective To determine whether whole genome sequencing can be used to define the molecular basis of suspected mitochondrial disease. Design Cohort study. Setting National Health Service, England, including secondary and tertiary care. […]
Vitamin D Deficiency Can Impair Muscle Function
Vitamin D deficiency may impair muscle function due to a reduction in energy production in the muscles, according to a mouse study published in the Journal of Endocrinology. Vitamin D deficient […]
A glimmer of hope: Virginia Tech researcher creates cell lines to help treat mitochondrial diseases in children
The mitochondrion has garnered quite the reputation for its role as the “powerhouse of the cell.” These tiny, but mighty organelles play various life-sustaining roles, from powering our own cells […]
Muscle Weakness Tied to Poor Mitochondria Function
Poorly working mitochondria — small energy-producing cell compartments — may drive muscle weakness or wasting in a new mouse model of porphyria, a study suggests. “In some cases, muscle atrophy [is] […]
New research leads to understanding of why mutations in a gene leads to mitochondrial disease
Monash University researchers have uncovered for the first time the reason mutations in a particular gene lead to mitochondrial disease. The finding, published in PNAS journal and led by Professor Mike Ryan from Monash […]
