Abstract excerpt
Somatic differences in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been observed with aging and between brain regions for mutations, structural variation, and abundance, which are represented by single nucleotide variants (SNVs), large deletions, and copy number, respectively. We used bioinformatic methods to interrogate mtDNA changes and their relation to cortical and cerebellar aging using whole genome sequencing data from...
