I remember when, as a medical student, I read with excite- ment the exemplary piece of clinical investigation in which Rolf Luft and coworkers documented that the culprit for the severe hypermetabolism that afflicted a young Swedish woman was not a dysfunction of the thyroid gland, but loose coupling of muscle mitochondria. Ten years later, as a postdoctoral fellow in neurology with Lewis P. Rowland and a guest in the laboratories of C. E Lee and Britton Chance, I struggled to isolate intact muscle mitochon- dria from the second patient with Luft disease and could hardly believe my eyes when the pen of the oxygen electrode recorder plunged afiier the addi- tion of substrates, unresponsive to ADP or oligomycin! In the intervening years, substantial morphological and biochemical evidence had been pro- vided to support the mitochondrial nature of several human diseases, as ini- tially suggested by Luft. Much of these data came from the University of Nijmegen, where, under the leadership of Rob Sengers, collaboration between basic scientists and clinicians —"translational research" as it is now called— was fostered and continues to this day. It is, therefore, historically appropriate that both the editors and several contributors of this book belong to that institution. Far from being parochial, however, the book includes experts from many countries. In the spirit of multidisciplinary collaboration that has characterized mitochondrial research from its inception —in the absence of animal mod- els, patients were of equal interest to clinical and basic scientists— this book includes updates on the normal structure, function, and molecular biology of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, "practical" chapters on the useful- ness and limitations of traditional diagnostic methodologies (morphology, biochemistry, molecular genetics), and an overview of the diagnostic prom- ise of new technologies (chips, proteomics). While the unchecked —and uncheckable— hypermetabolism of Luft disease has not yet been seen more than twice, clinical heterogeneity, indeed clinical "arlequinism", characterizes mitochondrial diseases, which is hardly surprising, considering that mitochondria are present in every tissue of the body and that mitochondrial genetics is more akin to population genetics than to the more "disciplined" mendelian genetics. The diagnostic challenge often leads either to underdiagnosing ("what is this confusing clinical pre- sentation?") or to overdiagnosing ("this clinical presentation is so confusing that it must be a mitochondrial disease!"). To help clinicians avoid these extremes, the book contains critical reviews of symptoms and signs, alone or
