Mitochondrial Case Studies: Underlying Mechanisms and Diagnosis offers the science behind mitochondrial disease with a case studies approach. Since mitochondrial diseases are diverse and influenced by genetic, environmental, and social-economic factors, this publication will help students, physicians, scientists, health care students, and families recognize and accurately diagnose mitochondrial disease and learn about potential treatments.

Key Features

Reviews case studies as a helpful teaching tool to increase awareness and improve diagnosis
Provides information on underlying mechanisms of mitochondrial disease
Includes basic mitochondrial dysfunction research through patient case studies to best illustrate the entire disease process
