Default Mitochondria and neurodegenerative diseases

Faulty energy production in brain cells leads to disorders ranging from Parkinson’s to intellectual disability

Neuroscientist Patrik Verstreken of VIB (Flanders Institute for Biotechnology) and KU Leuven has shown for the first time that dysfunctional mitochondria in brain cells can lead to learning disabilities. The link between dysfunctional mitochondria and Parkinson's disease is known, but this new research shows that it is also present in other brain disorders.
