Neuropathic Pain as Main Manifestation of POLG-Related Disease: A Case Report

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
Mutations in nuclear-encoded genes that are involved in mitochondrial DNA replication and maintenance (e.g., POLG) have been associated with chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) phenotype.

Plant mitochondrial DNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience, 2017
Plants possess mitochondrial genomes that are large and complex compared to animals. Nearly all animal mitochondrial genomes are about 16.5. kbp in length, whereas plant mitochondrial genomes range between 200-2,000 kbp. This is curious if we assume modern mitochondria originated from a common alpha-proteobacterial ancestor.

Defects of Mitochondrial DNA

open access: yesBrain Pathology, 1992
In the past few years several syndromes have been associated with lesions of the human mitochondrial DNA. MtDNA is a small, circular extra‐nuclear chromosome encoding essential components of the respiratory chain. MtDNA‐related syndromes can be divided into two groups: mitochondrial encephalomyopathies, characterized by the presence of ragged‐red ...

Mitochondrial DNA and disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, 2011
AbstractMitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) defects are a relatively common cause of inherited disease and have been implicated in both ageing and cancer. MtDNA encodes essential subunits of the mitochondrial respiratory chain and defects result in impaired oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS).

Reversible mitochondrial respiratory chain impairment during symptomatic hyperlactatemia associated with antiretroviral therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Direct evidence confirming the hypothesis that a dysfunction of the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) underlies the pathogenesis of hyperlactatemia associated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is scarce.

Mitochondrial DNA in Sepsis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Critical Care, 2017
Purpose of review Our understanding of critical illness is transforming as we develop a better understanding of the impact pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) have on the pathogenesis of disease. Of the known DAMPs, there is a growing interest in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) as a

Mitochondrial DNA Backgrounds Might Modulate Diabetes Complications Rather than T2DM as a Whole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in rare and common forms of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Additionally, rare mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have been shown to be causal for T2DM pathogenesis.

Mitochondrial DNA lineages of Italian Giara and Sarcidano horses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Giara and Sarcidano are 2 of the 15 extant native Italian horse breeds with limited dispersal capability that originated from a larger number of individuals. The 2 breeds live in two distinct isolated locations on the island of Sardinia. To determine the

DNA Damage and Base Excision Repair in Mitochondria and Their Role in Aging

open access: yesJournal of Aging Research, 2011
During the last decades, our knowledge about the processes involved in the aging process has exponentially increased. However, further investigation will be still required to globally understand the complexity of aging.

DNA-PKcs promotes sepsis-induced multiple organ failure by triggering mitochondrial dysfunction

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2022
Introduction: Multiple organ failure is the commonest cause of death in septic patients. Objectives: This study was undertaken in an attempt to elucidate the functional importance of DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) on ...
