Description

Mitochondrial myopathies are a group of muscle disorders caused by dysfunctional mitochondria. The mitochondria are responsible for generating energy in cells, and when they are not functioning properly, the cells cannot produce enough energy, leading to muscle weakness and other problems. There are many different types of mitochondrial myopathies, and symptoms can vary from person to person. Some people may only experience mild muscle weakness, while others may have more severe symptoms such as heart or respiratory problems. There is no cure for mitochondrial myopathies, but treatments are available to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
