ABSTRACT Barth syndrome (BTHS; OMIM 302060) is an ultra‐rare, life‐limiting genetic disorder characterized by cardiomyopathy, skeletal muscle myopathy, neutropenia, gastrointestinal issues, and fatigue. Formal analyses of survival and clinical progression remain limited.

Loss-of-function mutations in Lysyl-tRNA synthetase cause various leukoencephalopathy phenotypes [PDF]
Objective: To expand the clinical spectrum of lysyl-tRNA synthetase (KARS) gene–related diseases, which so far includes Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, congenital visual impairment and microcephaly, and nonsyndromic hearing impairment.

Diabetes mellitus associated with the mitochondrial mutation A3243G: frequency and clinical presentation [PDF]
Maternal inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD) has been related to an A to G transition in the mitochondrial RNA Leu (UUR) at base pair 3243. The prevalence of MIDD in the diabetes population ranges between 0.5-3.0% depending on the ethnic background ...

Abstract Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy, Lactic Acidosis, and Stroke‐like episodes (MELAS) is a rare multisystem mitochondrial disorder primarily caused by mutations in mitochondrial DNA. While it typically presents with stroke‐like episodes, seizures, and lactic acidosis, recent evidence highlights a broader clinical spectrum, including ...

T Cell Activation Markers and African Mitochondrial DNA Haplogroups among Non-Hispanic Black Participants in AIDS Clinical Trials Group Study 384 [PDF]
Introduction: Mitochondrial function influences T cell dynamics and is affected by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation. We previously reported an association between African mtDNA haplogroup L2 and less robust CD4 cell recovery on antiretroviral therapy (

Abstract Background Chronic intestinal pseudo‐obstruction (CIPO) is a severe gastrointestinal motility disorder that may be idiopathic or associated with systemic disease. In idiopathic cases, the pathophysiological mechanisms remain poorly defined. Although mutations in angiogenic factors have been reported in mitochondrial forms of CIPO, their role ...

Sleep and circadian defects in a Drosophila model of mitochondrial encephalomyopathy
Mitochondrial encephalomyopathies (ME) are complex, incurable diseases characterized by severe bioenergetic distress that can affect the function of all major organ systems but is especially taxing to neuromuscular tissues. Animal models of MEs are rare,

Mitochondrial disease and endocrine dysfunction [PDF]
Mitochondria are critical organelles for endocrine health; steroid hormone biosynthesis occurs in these organelles and they provide energy in the form of ATP for hormone production and trafficking.

One‐step, highly efficient, and scalable synthesis of acp3U phosphoramidite is described, as well as a new alternative synthesis of cmnm5U phosphoramidite from a highly versatile intermediate. Latter could be scaled‐up, split, and aliquots turned simultaneously into cmnm5U, nm5U, and mnm5U.

Investigation of IFN signaling in cultured skin fibroblasts from patients with genetically confirmed mitochondrial diseases of diverse origins revealed that altered IFN signaling is an inconsistent feature of these disorders. Cytosolic accumulation of mtDNA and mtRNA was variably detected and showed little correlation with ISG scores.
