Low peripheral mitochondrial DNA copy number during manic episodes of bipolar disorders is associated with disease severity and inflammation
6 Sept 2021
Abstract excerpt
Mitochondria (Mt) are intra-cellular components essential for cellular energy processes whose dysfunction may induce premature cellular senescence and/or inflammation, both observed in bipolar disorders (BD). We investigated mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) levels in patients with BD being in manic, depressive or euthymic phase and in healthy controls (HC) both characterized for the levels of blood-based...
