How children and adults with mitochondrial myopathy respond to exercise
We’re trying to learn how people with mitochondrial myopathy respond to exercise. Mitochondria are the body’s "power plants." They turn food into energy. If the "power plants” don’t make enough energy, muscles may grow weak. We’re studying differences between mitochondrial myopathy patients and healthy children when exercising. An exercise test tells us about breathing, blood circulation and muscle function during exercise. Such studies may lead to exercise testing as a way to diagnose and monitor mitochondrial myopathy patients.
