Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Mutations in mitochondrial tRNA (mt-tRNA) are the important causes for maternally inherited hypertension; however, the pathophysiology of mt-tRNA mutations in clinical expression of hypertension remains poorly understood. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this study, we report the molecular features of a Han Chinese pedigree with maternally transmitted essential hypertension. The entire mitochondrial genomes...
