Anybody doing mitochondrial gene replacement psychiatric help?

any company workin on that? whole mitocndrial genome replacment theraphy? Well, that might be "tricky," since there are almost 100 mitochondria in respectively of your cells, and they are 65-ploid, explicitly they each hold about 65 copies of their circular genome. So you would own to replace on the order of 1,000,000,000,000,000 mitochondrial genomes.
Or you could basically do a mix of aerobic and anaerobic exercise, which kills mitochondria that own gone bad.
And what mitochondrial diseases are near in humans that necessitate to be cured?
