Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) can be used as a proxy for mitochondrial function and is associated with a number of aging-related diseases. However, it is unclear how mtDNA-CN measured in blood can reflect risk for diseases that primarily manifest in other tissues. Using the Genotype-Tissue Expression Project, we interrogated the relationships between mtDNA-CN meas...
