Story


What is mitochondrial disease?

Mitochondrial disease is the term given to a group of medical disorders caused by mutations in mitochondria, the tiny organelles that are present in nearly every cell in our bodies and which generate about 90% of the energy we need to live.

Mitochondrial diseases affect people in multiple ways, depending on which cells are affected. This can make the condition hard to diagnose, as symptoms often resemble those of other serious illnesses.

Any of the body's organs and systems can be affected including the brain, heart, lungs, gut, liver and skin.

There is currently no cure.

The lily foundation is the largest charitable funder of mitochondrial research in Europe. Their mission is to improve the lives of people affected by mitochondrial diseases, while working towards a future where mitochondrial diseases can be effectively treated and cured. ❤️
