1 High blood pressure. 2  Blood and/or protein in the urine.  A creatinine and Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) blood test, outside the normal range. BUN and creatinine are waste that build up in your blood when your kidney function is reduced.
The main function of mitochondria is the production of energy during the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) via the TCA Cycle (which is also as the Krebs Cycle and the Citric Acid Cycle).That process is an important metabolic pathway (see also what is metabolism).ccording to many textbooks: Energy production within cells is the main function of mitochondria. However, some students are told not to state that mitochondria produce or create energy. Strictly, the energy is released from storage (in chemical bonds) by reactions that occur in mitochondria.
A dominant role for the mitochondria is the production of ATP, as reflected by the large number of proteins in the inner membrane for this task. This is done by oxidizing the major products of glucose: pyruvate, and NADH, which are produced in the cytosol.he number of mitochondria in a cell can vary widely by organism, tissue, and cell type. For instance, red blood cells have no mitochondria, whereas liver cells can have more than 2000. The organelle is composed of compartments that carry out specialized functions.
