Impaired Complex-I-Linked Respiration and ATP Synthesis in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma Patient Lymphoblasts
17 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Following the recent demonstration of increased mitochondrial DNA mutations in lymphocytes of POAG patients, the authors sought to characterize mitochondrial function in a separate cohort of POAG. METHODS: Using similar methodology to that previous applied to Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) patients, maximal adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis and cellular respiration rates, as well as cell...
