Scientists hunt for hidden genetic clues in mysterious energy disorders
NCT ID NCT01803906
Summary
This study aims to discover the unknown genetic causes of mitochondrial diseases, which affect the body's energy production. Researchers will analyze leftover tissue samples from thousands of patients who have a suspected mitochondrial disorder but no confirmed genetic diagnosis. The goal is to identify new gene mutations to improve future understanding and diagnosis, not to provide direct treatment.
