A REPORT OF RAPID AND EFFICIENT METHOD FOR MITOCHONDRIAL DNA
Based on the similarity of prokaryotic DNA to that of mitochondrial DNA, a rapid and efficient method for DNA purification from mitochondrial extracts obtained from different sources, was carried out based on the modification method described by Marmur (1983) which resulted in a high degree of purity (A260/A280=2). In addition we have applied the same technique for the first time to purify...
متن کاملHistochemical And Electron Microscopic Diagnosis Of Mitochondrial Myopathy: The First Case Report From Iran
Muscle tissue, skeletal muscle as well as cardiac muscle, is commonly affected in mitochondrial disorders. One explanation for this observation is that muscle tissue has a high-energy demand and therefore is more sensitive to a deficiency of mitochondrial energy production than some other tissues. In mitochondrial disorders, skeletal muscle tissue may be affected primarily by defective respi...
متن کاملThe Mitochondrial DNA 4977-bp Deletion in Patients with Colorectal Cancer: a Case-control Study in Iran
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and its occurrence can be ascribed to genetic susceptibility. Mitochondrial DNA 4977-bp (mtDNA 4977), as the most described mtDNA deletion, has been long proposed to be involved in various types of cancers. However, a few studies on mtDNA 4977-bp deletion in Iranian patients with CRC have been reported. The cu...
متن کاملAnalysis of mitochondrial DNA sequences of Turcinoemacheilus genus (Nemacheilidae Cypriniformes) in Iran
Members of Nemacheilidae Family, Turcinoemacheilus genus were subjected to molecular phylogenetic analysis in this study. This genus was reported in 2009 to inhabit in Karoon River drainage, in contrary to previous assumption that it was the endemic species in the Basin of Tigris River. It was sampled from three stations placed in different tributaries in Karoon drainage and evaluated to unders...
متن کاملP-201: Prevalence of 4977bp Deletion in Mitochondrial DNA in IVF Failure Women
Background: Successful IVF process is limited by factors such as oocyte quality. Oocyte quality can be defined as its abilities to be fertilized, mature and give rise to normal offspring and it is dependent on nuclear maturation and cytoplasm maturation. Damage to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been described in oocytes in IVF failure women that decrease cytoplasmic quality because Mitochondria ...
