- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial respiratory-chain diseases

TL;DR: The mitochondrial respiratory chain has the crucial function of supplying the cell with energy in the form of ATP, and mutations affecting this chain can arise in mitochondrial or nuclear DNA and cause diseases known as mitochondrial encephalomyopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deletions of mitochondrial DNA in Kearns‐Sayre syndrome

TL;DR: Large-scale deletions in muscle mitochondrial DNA (mtDN A) in seven of seven patients with Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) bolster arguments that KSS is a unique disorder and genetic in origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human mitochondrial DNA: roles of inherited and somatic mutations

TL;DR: Insight into the roles of mtDNA mutations in a wide variety of diseases is discussed, highlighting the interesting genetic characteristics of the mitochondrial genome and challenges in studying its contribution to pathogenesis.
