#SEQUENCHER V5.0 FROM GENECODES SKIN#

The first Leigh syndrome family had an affected 2-year-old child with a homoplasmic T8993G substitution encoding the ATPase 6 gene ( MT-ATP) of mtDNA in both blood and skin fibroblast samples while her 22-year-old mother had the same mutation with 70% heteroplasmy in blood and 100% in skin fibroblasts (Fig. We collected DNA from blood, skin fibroblasts and/or urine from children and mothers, and performed whole mtDNA sequencing. We recruited four families diagnosed with Leigh syndrome and one with MELAS (mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes) and conducted genetic testing to confirm maternal inheritance (Extended Data Fig. Hence, we propose a matching paradigm for selecting compatible donor mtDNA for MRT.īecause mitochondrial disease can be attributed to gene mutations in mtDNA and/or nuclear DNA, an important clinical challenge is to first confirm pathogenic mtDNA mutations in families eligible for MRT. In addition, some haplotypes confer proliferative and growth advantages to cells. We identify a polymorphism within the conserved sequence box II region of the D-loop as a plausible cause of preferential replication of specific mtDNA haplotypes. In evaluating donortomaternal mtDNA interactions, it seems that compatibility relates to mtDNA replication efficiency rather than to mismatch or oxidative phosphorylation dysfunction. However, some ES cell lines demonstrated gradual loss of donor mtDNA and reversal to the maternal haplotype. Donor mtDNA was stably maintained in embryonic stem cells (ES cells) derived from most embryos. Efficient replacement of oocyte mutant mtDNA was performed by spindle transfer, resulting in embryos containing >99% donor mtDNA. The mothers oocytes were of normal quality and mutation levels correlated with those in existing children. Here we report MRT outcomes in several families with common mtDNA syndromes. Mitochondrial replacement therapies or techniques (MRT) circumventing mothertochild mtDNA disease transmission involve replacement of oocyte maternal mtDNA. Pathogenic mtDNA mutations are relatively common, with an estimated 778 affected children born each year in the United States. Maternally inherited mitochondrial (mt)DNA mutations can cause fatal or severely debilitating syndromes in children, with disease severity dependent on the specific gene mutation and the ratio of mutant to wild-type mtDNA (heteroplasmy) in each cell and tissue.
