متن کاملSyndromes associated with mitochondrial DNA depletion
Mitochondrial dysfunction accounts for a large group of inherited metabolic disorders most of which are due to a dysfunctional mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) and, consequently, deficient energy production. MRC function depends on the coordinated expression of both nuclear (nDNA) and mitochondrial (mtDNA) genomes. Thus, mitochondrial diseases can be caused by genetic defects in either the...
متن کاملLipopolysaccharide-induced mitochondrial DNA depletion.
Hepatic energy depletion has been described in severe sepsis, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to cause mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage. To clarify the mechanisms of LPS-induced mtDNA damage and mitochondrial alterations, we treated wild-type (WT) or transgenic manganese superoxide dismutase-overerexpressing (MnSOD(+++)) mice with a single dose of LPS (5 mg/kg). In WT mice, LPS incr...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms in mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome.
Depletion of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) appears to be an important cause of mitochondrial dysfunction in neonates and infants. We have identified another child in whom depletion of mtDNA was demonstrated in liver and serial skeletal muscle biopsies. A primary myoblast culture from the patient initially showed normal levels of mtDNA, but there was a progressive loss of mtDNA in later cell passage...
متن کاملMPV17 mutations in patients with hepatocerebral mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome
MPV17-related hepatocerebral mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MDS) is a very rare condition, and only a few cases have been reported in East Asian countries. Here, we describe four Korean children affected by hepatocerebral MDS. The DGUOK, POLG1, and MPV17 genes were analyzed, and all patients had MPV17 mutations.
