**Background and Rationale** Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of numerous neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Huntington's disease. These organelles serve as the cellular powerhouses, generating ATP through oxidative phosphorylation, but also play critical roles in calcium homeostasis, apoptosis regulation, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. In neurodegenerative conditions, mitochondria accumu...
