Mito Target is a resource for ALS information and research

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a major hallmark of various neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The links between mitochondrial dysfunction and the onset and progress of some of these diseases, however, still needs to be explained in more detail. In diseases where this link is already established, the question remains whether drugs developed with regard to specific targets or mechanisms involved in mitochondrial dysfunction can affect the diseases in question.
