Altered skeletal muscle (mitochondrial) properties in patients with mitochondrial DNA single deletion myopathy
BACKGROUND Mitochondrial myopathy severely affects skeletal muscle structure and function resulting in defective oxidative phosphorylation. However, the major pathomechanisms and therewith effective treatment approaches remain elusive. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate disease-related impairments in skeletal muscle properties in patients with mitochondrial myopathy. Acc...
متن کاملNuclear genetic control of mitochondrial translation in skeletal muscle revealed in patients with mitochondrial myopathy.
Oxidative phosphorylation deficiencies can be caused by mutations in either the nuclear genome or the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA); however, most pathogenic mutations reported in adults occur in mtDNA. Such mutations often impair mitochondrial translation, and are associated with a characteristic muscle pathology consisting of a mosaic pattern of normal fibres interspersed with fibres that show...
متن کاملThe Mitochondrial DNA 4977-bp Deletion in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: a Case-control Study in Iran
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and its occurrence can be ascribed to genetic susceptibility. Mitochondrial DNA 4977-bp (mtDNA 4977), as the most described mtDNA deletion, has been long proposed to be involved in various types of cancers. However, a few studies on mtDNA 4977-bp deletion in Iranian patients with CRC have been reported. The cu...
متن کاملP-201: Prevalence of 4977bp Deletion in Mitochondrial DNA in IVF Failure Women
Background: Successful IVF process is limited by factors such as oocyte quality. Oocyte quality can be defined as its abilities to be fertilized, mature and give rise to normal offspring and it is dependent on nuclear maturation and cytoplasm maturation. Damage to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been described in oocytes in IVF failure women that decrease cytoplasmic quality because Mitochondria ...
متن کاملAltered Skeletal Muscle Mitochondrial Proteome As the Basis of Disruption of Mitochondrial Function in Diabetic Mice
Insulin plays pivotal role in cellular fuel metabolism in skeletal muscle. Despite being the primary site of energy metabolism, the underlying mechanism on how insulin deficiency deranges skeletal muscle mitochondrial physiology remains to be fully understood. Here we report an important link between altered skeletal muscle proteome homeostasis and mitochondrial physiology during insulin defici...
