摘要
Dysfunctions of the mitochondrial electron transport chain cause severe, currently untreatable, diseases in humans. A new study by Jain et al. (2019) reports increased oxygen levels in the brain of complex-I-deficient mice. Reducing the O-2 levels by hypoxia, carbon monoxide, or anemia, improved the clinical phenotype and prolonged the lifespan of the mouse model.
