Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: We investigated whether mutation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) affects the copy number of the mitochondrial genome in patients with mitochondrial myopathy encephalopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS) and those with myoclonic epilepsy with ragged-red fiber (MERRF) syndromes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty-eight Taiwanese patients with MELAS syndrome and 20 patients with MERRF...
