Un enfant qui souffre d'acidose lactique présente un déficit de cytochrome oxydase. [Le rôle de la cytochrome oxydase] est de fournir de l'énergie aux cellules. [...] Quand la demande du corps en énergie est trop importante et que l'enfant ne peut y répondre (p. ex. : lors d'une infection), une baisse d'énergie survient. Cette baisse s'accompagne d'un déséquilibre sanguin. Le sang devient alors plus acide. 3, record 1, French, - acidose%20lactique%20cong%C3%A9nitale
