Cerebral palsy (CP) muscle contains fewer energy-generating organelles than typically developing muscle.
Gene expression in CP muscle is similar to aging and long-term bed rest.
We compared skeletal muscle samples from children with cerebral palsy (CP) and typically developing children and observed evidence of reduced mtDNA and OXPHOS protein content in CP skeletal muscle, indicating reduced mitochondrial abundance. Moreover, transcriptional similarities to aging and long-term unloading suggests signs of metabolic alterations in CP skeletal muscle.
