In future, similar mitochondrial diseases could potentially be treated by limiting excessive cell proliferation, which would be a significant progress. This is demonstrated in a study led by docent Jukka Kallijärvi … Continue reading Study Finds Mechanism That Resembles Ageing And Cancer In A Finnish Mitochondrial Disease
