Mitochondria are independent double-membrane organelles responsible for energy production, specifically by completing oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondria are essential to regulate energy metabolism, signaling pathways, and cell death. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can be altered by metabolic disorders, oxidative stress, or inflammation in the progression and development of various diseases. In this chapter, we overview the role of mtDNA in energy metabolism and the diseases that are associated with mtDNA abnormality, with a special focus on the major factors which regulate the mechanism of mtDNA in metabolism.

Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 May 2023.
All research outputs
#19,273,363
of 23,852,579 outputs
Outputs from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#3,444
of 5,067 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#316,472
of 425,078 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in experimental medicine and biology
#336
of 490 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,852,579 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,067 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.4. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 425,078 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 490 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
