The mitochondrial DNA mutations associated with cardiac arrhythmia investigated in an LQTS family
Objective(s): As mitochondrial oxidative stress is probably entailed in ATP production, a candidate modifier factor for the long QT syndrome (LQTS) could be mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). It has been notified that ion channels' activities in cardiomyocytes are sensitive to the ATP level. Materials and Methods: The sample of the research was an Iranian family with LQTS for mutations by PCR-SSCP and...
متن کاملLack of Association of Mitochondrial A3243G tRNALeu Mutation in Iranian Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
Many kinds of mutations in mitochondrial (mt) DNA have been reported to be related to the development of Diabetes Mellitus (DM), this type of diabetes has also been shown to be influenced by other genetic factors and/or environmental factors. Among them, tRNALeu(UUR) and its adjacent mtDNA NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1(ND1) region within the mt genome are linked to high susceptibility to DM. A p...
متن کاملبررسی فراوانی جهش های DNA میتوکندریایی در دیابت نوع دو
Background: Mitochondria is one of the intracellular organelle with specific DNA. Some diseases caused by mtDNA mutations have been reported up to now. Mutation of A3243G and deletion of 5kb are two of them that related to Diabetes type II. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of A3243G mutation and 5kb mt DNA deletion in type II diabetic patients.Methods: The DNA extracted from...
متن کاملP167: Effect of Mitochondrial Mutation on Depression and Anxiety
Mitochondria are membrane-enclosed organelle found in most eukaryotic cells, which known as power house in cells. This organelle transforms energy into forms that are usable by the cell. The most common psychiatric disorders such as depression and anxiety can be linked to mitochondrial disorders. Furthermore, mutations of mitochondrial or nuclear DNA (mtDNA and nDNA, respectively) have been lin...
متن کاملP-213: Mutation Analysis of Mitochondrial ND4L Gene in Iranian Infertile Men with Varicocele
Background: Varicocele is the abnormal tortuosity and dilatation of the veins of the pampiniform plexus within the spermatic cord. Varicocele-related pathology is suspected in infertility as it leads to elevated temperatures in the scrotum and testes, which has a deleterious effect on spermatogenesis. In Varicocele patients, ROS production is enhanced and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) is red...
