MITOCHONDRIAL DYSFUNCTIONS AND ANTIHYPOXANTS (2019)

Mitochondrial dysfunctions (an impaired energy metabolism in the mitochondria) are essential in a pathogenesis of many diseases. Aim. The analysis of various mitochondrial dysfunction (MD) type study, as well as evaluation of drugs with an antihypoxic effect in their treatment. Methods. Collection, systematization and analysis of experimental and clinical data of current scientific research about the problem. Results. The mitochondrial dysfunctions can be caused by
genetic disorders of the mitochondrial or nuclear genome (the primary MD or the mitochondrial diseases), as well as structural, functional and biochemical defects of mitochondria
caused by other diseases (the secondary MD). MD are characterized by impaired tissue respiration, ATP synthesis deficiency and decreased energy metabolism. The clinical
implications of MD are polysystemic and polymorphic. One of the biochemical sign of MD is the lactic acidosis. There are certain difficulties with the early diagnosis of primary MD.
It is suggested to use complete exome sequencing among patients with a clinical suspicion on mitochondrial disease. The energotropic pharmacotherapy including drugs with an antihypoxic
effect is used for MD treatment. It is more rational to use the drug combination that influences different stages of energy production. The combinations of L-carnitine, coenzyme Q10, cytochrome C and succinate-containing drugs are frequently used for MD. However, the usage of energotropic and antihypoxic drugs is not able to cure the patients and stop the progression of all disease displays. Conclusion. MD are a multidisciplinary problem, therefore, doctors of any speciality must be competent in the MD diagnosis and treatment. The use of energotropic agents in the MD treatment requires further research. Numerous issues remain open (daily drug
doses choice, treatment duration, rational combinations). The phenotype variability and the uniqueness of diagnosed cases, clinical and genetic differences between patient groups
with mitochondrial disease
