Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial DNA mutations associated with neuromuscular diseases: analysis and diagnosis using the polymerase chain reaction.

TL;DR: Molecular analysis will likely become a primary tool for the diagnosis of neuromuscular diseases such as myoclonic epilepsy and ragged red fiber disease by identifying small deletions through amplification and electrophoretic analysis of the entire mtDNA genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deficiency in the mouse mitochondrial adenine nucleotide translocator isoform 2 gene is associated with cardiac noncompaction.

TL;DR: It is hypothesize that the developmental toxicity of the Ant2 null mutation may be the result of biasing the cardiomyocyte mtPTP to remain open thus impairing carduomyocyte maturation and resulting in cardiomeocyte hyperproliferation and failure of trabecular maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective killing of cells with oxidative defects in galactose medium: A screening test for affected patient fibroblasts

TL;DR: The cell lines showing susceptibility to galactose metabolism appear to be those with the more overt or severe oxidative defects, and the extent of the susceptibiity appears to bear some relationship to the nature of the oxidative defect.
