Exertional dyspnea in mitochondrial myopathy: clinical features and physiological mechanisms.
Exertional dyspnea limits exercise in some mitochondrial myopathy (MM) patients, but the clinical features of this syndrome are poorly defined, and its underlying mechanism is unknown. We evaluated ventilation and arterial blood gases during cycle exercise and recovery in five MM patients with exertional dyspnea and genetically defined mitochondrial defects, and in four control subjects (C). Pa...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
متن کاملHistochemical And Electron Microscopic Diagnosis Of Mitochondrial Myopathy: The First Case Report From Iran
Muscle tissue, skeletal muscle as well as cardiac muscle, is commonly affected in mitochondrial disorders. One explanation for this observation is that muscle tissue has a high-energy demand and therefore is more sensitive to a deficiency of mitochondrial energy production than some other tissues. In mitochondrial disorders, skeletal muscle tissue may be affected primarily by defective respi...
متن کاملRelationship between Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Multiple Sclerosis: A Review Study
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system that inflammation, demyelination, oligodendrocyte loss, gliosis, axonal injury and neurodegeneration are the main histopathological hallmarks of the disease. Although MS was classically thought as a demyelinating disease, but axonal injury occurs commonly in acute inflammatory lesions. In MS mi...
متن کاملFunction of mitochondrial complex-I and -IV in normal human and Parkinson's disease cybrids
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the dopaminergic neurodegeneration, which characterizes Parkinson’s disease (PD). The activities of mitochondrial complexes I and IV were found to be reduced in the brains of PD patients (n = 4) as compared to age-matched controls (n = 4). This is tested in SH-SY5Y cell lines, transformed Rho0 cells, and in normal and PD cybrid cell lines. Cybrid...
