Potentially Diagnostic Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectra Elucidate the Underlying Mechanism of Mitochondrial Dysfunction in the Deoxyguanosine Kinase Deficient Rat Model of a Genetic Mitochondrial DNA Depletion Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A novel rat model for a well-characterized human mitochondrial disease, mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome with associated deoxyguanosine kinase (DGUOK) deficiency, is described.

Role of mitochondrial complex I genes in host plant expansion of Bactrocera tau (Tephritidae: Diptera) by CRISPR/Cas9 system

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The role of 3 mitochondrial complex I gene in host expansion of Bactrocera tau was verified by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system. A stable homogenous strain (Btndufa7‐/‐) of B.tau was established after silencing Ndufa7. The reduced size of larvae and pupae of Ndufa7 knockout strain was first found.Then different levels of fitness and relative expression ...

Response to immunotherapy in a patient with adult onset Leigh syndrome and T9176C mtDNA mutation

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2016
Leigh syndrome is a mitochondrial disease caused by mutations in different genes, including ATP6A for which no known therapy is available. We report a case of adult-onset Leigh syndrome with response to immunotherapy.

A Leigh syndrome caused by compound heterozygous mutations on NDUFAF5 induce early infant death: A case report

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2022
Background The NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex assembly factor gene (NDUFAF5) has been linked to the occurrence of Leigh syndrome, but few causative mutations have been identified. Here we report a rare case of Leigh syndrome in an infant who died

Pioglitazone Ameliorates Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress and Inflammation via AMPK‐Dependent Inhibition of Mitochondrial Fission in Leigh Syndrome

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Pioglitazone suppresses mitochondrial excessive ROS generation and COX‐2 level through inhibition of Drp‐1 mediated mitochondrial fission in an AMPK‐dependent manner in LS. ABSTRACT Loss of function mutations of NDUFS4 resulted in Leigh syndrome, which is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and characterized by mitochondrial oxidative stress ...

Leigh syndrome: A rare mitochondrial disorder

open access: yesBangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Journal, 2016
Leigh syndrome is a rare, mitochondrial disorder of childhood . In most cases dysfunction of the respiratory chain enzymes is responsible for the disease. Raised lactate levels in blood and/or cerebrospinal fluid is noted.

A novel mutation in NDUFB11 unveils a new clinical phenotype associated with lactic acidosis and sideroblastic anemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
NDUFB11, a component of mitochondrial complex I, is a relatively small integral membrane protein, belonging to the 'supernumerary' group of subunits, but proved to be absolutely essential for the assembly of an active complex I.
