Endocrine disorders in two sisters affected by MELAS syndrome.

Journal of child neurology - 1 Nov 2000

Balestri P, Grosso S

Abstract excerpt

A variety of endocrine and metabolic defects, including hypothalamopituitary hypofunction and diabetes mellitus, has been reported in association with mitochondrial disorders. We describe two sisters affected by mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and strokelike episodes (MELAS) syndrome in whom DNA analysis showed an A-->G transition at the 3243rd nucleotide position on the transfer RNALeu(UUR)...
