Pitfalls in the diagnosis of mtDNA mutations.

Abstract: In conclusion, the usefulness of current PCR based methods of detecting the junction fragment in CMT1A duplications is limited in our experience.We are grateful to Dr C Van Broeckhoven for providing probe pVAW409R3a. COMBARROSA OTERINO

“…The T15943C transition in the threonine tRNA gene was located in the T arm loop region, where several neighboring polymorphisms have been previously identified. Moreover, an adjacent variant, T15940del, was identified in a family with mitochondrial myopathy (Seneca et al, 1998;Tuppen et al, 2008). We hypothesize that A7542G and T1594C are potentially detrimental variants.…”

“…Mitochondria play an imperative role in glucose metabolism, insulin secretion and biogenesis, hence its dysfunction is reportedly found to play a crucial role in diabetes development (Gerbitz et al 1996;Choo Kang et al 2002). Earlier reports showed the association of mitochondrial DNA mutations like 1310C [T, 1382A[C, 1438G[A, 1201A[G, 3243A[G, 3252A[G, 3256A[T, 3264A[C, 3271A[C, 3290T[C, 3303C[T, 3316G[A, 3394T[C, 8296A[G, 8344A[G, 11778G[A, 12026A[G, 12258C[A, 14577T[C, 14709T[C and 16189T[C (Giles et al 1980Alcolado et al 1994;Kalinin et al 1995;Seneca et al 1998;Chinnery et al 2000;Hattori et al 2003;Pranoto 2005;Brandon et al 2005;Liu et al 2007;Mezghani et al 2010;Vijaya Padma et al 2010;Duraisamy et al 2010;Weng et al, 2013) with T2D development. Particularly, mutation in tRNA Leu gene at 3243 (A[G) position and in the subunits of NADH dehydrogenase 1 and 4 have been reported to have strong association with diabetes incidence in different populations (Kalinin et al 1995;Zhao and Zhang 2001;Lam et al 2001;Pranoto 2005;Yu et al 2004;Duraisamy et al 2010;Vijaya Padma et al 2010).…”

“…But to our surprise, none of them were informed with the disease condition and found the maternal family history being the crucial factor in diabetes development (Devi et al 2013(Devi et al , 2015. Therefore, we intend to conduct a detailed study to identify whether mitochondrial mutation particularly ND1 gene has any role to play with diabetes incidence as its association with diabetes development particularly maternal inheritance is well established (Kalinin et al 1995;Hirai et al Nakano et al 1998;Seneca et al 1998;Shin et al 1998;Lam et al 2001;Zhao and Zhang 2001;Hattori et al 2003;Yu et al 2004;Pranoto 2005). …”

“…The mutation at location 15 928 is a polymorphism of the encoding region of mitochondrial DNA. 11 Mutation 4216 is a secondary mutation of Leber hereditary optic neuropathy, which increases the risk of disease expression. 12 This mutation is also frequently found in patients with stroke and migraine with aura.…”
