Low-level mitochondrial heteroplasmy modulates DNA replication, glucose metabolism and lifespan in mice
2017-08-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lead to heteroplasmy, i.e. the intracellular coexistence of wild-type and mutant mtDNA strands, which impact a wide spectrum of diseases but also physiological processes, including endurance exercise performance in athletes. However, the phenotypic consequences of limited levels of naturally-arising heteroplasmy have not been experimentally studied to date....
