Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mitochondria are the main sites of cellular aerobic energy production through conjugation of respiration and oxidative phosphorylation. We have recently discovered mutations (genome variants) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) associated with atherosclerosis. We have then investigated the possible mechanisms underlying such association and the role of mitochondrial mutations in atherogenesis. Mitochondrial...
