Probing striated muscle mitochondrial phenotype in neuromuscular disorders.

Abstract excerpt

Multisystemic disorders with predominantly neurologic manifestations often present with mitochondrial abnormalities in striated muscle biopsies. Decreased respiratory complex activities and abnormalities in mitochondrial structure and DNA constitute the spectrum of mitochondrial changes used as diagnostic and prognostic indicators in patients with neuromuscular disorders. This study assessed mitochondrial defects...
