Chronic Fatigue, the role of Mitochondria

(Precision Medicine column – episode dated 1-03-2024)

Dr. Carla Marzetti, Scientific Director of the Val Sambro Laboratory, protagonist of a new Telecolor column dedicated to Precision Medicine in the episode of March 1, 2024, dedicated to chronic fatigue, an increasingly widespread problem.

In this episode Dr. Carla Marzetti, researcher and founder of the Valsambro Laboratory, guides us in an in-depth investigation into cells and the energy they produce through mitochondria.

We will discover which factors can interfere with the energy production of mitochondria, influencing our well-being. Every day, each organ needs an adequate energy contribution to carry out all its functions and there can be various conditions that generate a slowdown or compromise the efficiency of energy production.

The contribution of omics sciences, such as metabolomics, is very important to provide a complete vision of the functioning of our organism and provide all those elements that allow a tailor-made intervention based on the conditions of the individual patient.
