Defective movement of cell's power plants implicated in commom inherited neurological disorder
Contrary to previous thinking, the inefficient movement of cell's "power plants" -- the mitochondria -- within a cell, rather than their low energy production, may be a contributing factor in the development of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), new research shows. view more (2007-01-17)
