Trans-generational maintenance of mitochondrial DNA integrity in oocytes during early folliculogenesis
2025-01-02
Abstract excerpt
Mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can lead to mitochondrial and cellular dysfunction. However, recent studies suggest that there is purifying selection against mutant mtDNAs during transgenerational transmission. We investigated the mtDNA dynamics during ovarian follicle development. Using base-editing, we generated mice harboring a 3177 G>A mutation corresponding to the human Leber hereditary optic neuropath...
