Summary: | <p>The human body receives the main energy in the form of ATP (about 50 kg per day), mainly by oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria, and a small part from glycolysis. It has been recognized a long ago that several major human diseases (2 type diabetes, cancer, heart diseases, etc.), and aging are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondrial dysfunction causes a dramatic fall of ATP production and an increase in ROS production.</p> |
