Eligibility Criteria: Inclusion criteria: * Biochemical or molecular genetic proof of a defect in mitochondrial enzyme of glucose metabolism or oxidative phosphorylation. * Clinical history consistent with CLA (e.g., basal hyperlactatemia, stroke-like episodes, neuromuscular degeneration, and seizures). * Ability to withstand an 8-hour fast (if 2 years old or younger) or a 12-hour fast without developing hypoglycemia (blood glucose greater than or equal to 50 mg/dL). Exclusion criteria: * Secondary lactic acidosis due to impaired oxygenation or circulation. * Hyperlactatemia associated with proven biotinidase deficiency or with enzyme deficiencies of gluconeogenesis. * Primary, defined organic acidurias other than lactic acidosis for which effective therapy is available (e.g., propionic aciduria). * Primary disorders of amino acid metabolism. * Primary disorders of fatty acid oxidation. * Malabsorption syndromes associated with D-lactic acidosis. * Renal insufficiency. * Serum creatinine greater than 1.2 mg/g. * Creatinine clearance less than or equal to 60 mL/min. * Primary hepatic disease unrelated to chronic lactic acidosis. * In patients with pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme complex deficiency, an inability to maintain a diet greater than 50% calories from fat without biological and/or neurological deterioration.
