Relationship between circulating mitochondrial DNA and microRNA in patients with major depression
17 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and circulating cell-free mitochondrial DNA (ccf-mtDNA) have attracted interest as biological markers of affective disorders. In response to stress, it is known that miRNAs in mitochondria diffuse out of the cytoplasm alongside mtDNA; however, this process has not yet been identified. We hypothesized that miRNAs derived from specific cell nuclei cause mitochondrial damage and mtDNA...
