About 1 in 4,000 children in the United States will develop mitochondrial disease by the age of 10 years. These include Type 2 Diabetes, Parkinson's disease, atherosclerotic Heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, anemia, dementia, hypertension, lymphoma, retinopathy, seizures, and neurodevelopmental disorders.

All mitochondrial DNA is passed down through the egg, and never through the sperm (the sperm has no organelles except its' genetic material).
