Association between plasma L-carnitine levels and mitochondrial DNA copy number

Association between plasma L-carnitine levels and mitochondrial DNA copy number

Abstract Mitochondria are key cytoplasmic organelles in eukaryotic cells that generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number (mtDNAcn) is considered a biomarker for both mitochondrial quantity and functi...
