Abstract excerpt
The clinical manifestations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations depend on a variety of factors including ratios of normal to abnormal mtDNA and tissue-specific differences in ATP production by oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). In order to investigate the effects of OXPHOS defects on renal tubule function, we characterized sodium-coupled transport processes in six individuals with OXPHOS diseases. Pathogenic...
