I'm just a mightless little mitochondrion. Mighty Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell, but mightless mitochondria like me are the power outage of the cell. Go to UMDF.org to learn more.

About 1 in 4,300 children are born with a mitochondrial disease that will affect them by age 10. This means that every 30 minutes, a child is born with a mitochondrial disease. #mitochondria #rarediseaseday

Did you know that the brain consumes 20% of the energy produced by the body? Just one neuron in the brain can have millions of mitochondria. 🧠

Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell. Mitochondrial disease is the power failure of the cell. umdf.org Rare disease day is Friday February 28th. Please share on your social media accounts. I'd do it, but I'm just a mightless little mitochondrion who's about out of energy.

Hello, I'm Mito the mitochondrion. I know what you're thinking. First, mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell. And second, "But Mito, you don't look like a mitochondrion." I know! That's because I'm diseased.
