Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: POLG (DNA polymerase γ catalytic subunit)-related mitochondrial diseases are among the most severe primary mitochondrial disorders and are characterized by progressive neurodegeneration with prominent dopaminergic involvement. However, the cell type-specific mechanisms linking mitochondrial DNA instability to neuronal vulnerability remain incompletely defined. METHODS: Using patient-derived midbrain...
