Used for treating and preventing clinical disorders secondary to mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondria are cellular organelles present in most eukaryotic cells. One of their primary functions is oxidative phosphorylation, a process through which energy derived from metabolism of fuels like glucose or fatty acids is converted to adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is then used to drive various energy-requiring biosynthetic reactions.
Mitochondrial dysfunction refers to disorders in which deficits in the mitochondrial respiratory chain activity contribute in the development of the pathophysiology of particular diseases affecting the liver, heart, skeletal muscle and pancreas, such as: Fatty liver disease; Drug-induced liver injury; Cardiomyopathy; Drug-induced muscle fatigue; Hyperthyroidism; Treatment of acute and chronic hepatitis.
