ABSTRACT
Mitochondria play important roles in cellular energy metabolism,free radical generation and apoptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the most profound features of cancer cells. Several distinct differences between the mitochondria of normal cells and cancer cells have been observed at the molecular,biochemical,metabolic and genetic levels. In this article,we review the relationship between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and carcinogenesis of cancer cells. The possible mechanisms are also discussed.
