Core Tip Mitochondria are the main source of cellular energy production and have decreased function in many disease states. After spinal cord injury (SCI) there is a dramatic deterioration of body composition including increased adipose tissue deposition, skeletal muscle atrophy and conversion from oxidative to glycolytic skeletal muscle fibers. These changes put persons with SCI at a high risk for developing cardiovascular disease and type Ⅱ diabetes. How skeletal muscle mitochondrial function is impacted after human SCI has yet to be determined. The current editorial will discuss the importance of studying skeletal muscle mitochondrial function after SCI.
