Familial hypertrophic ventricular cardiomyopathy has been demonstrated to be associated with a number of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations. A fibroblast cell line carrying a mutation in its mtDNA at position 9997 in the gene encoding tRNA glycine was obtained from a patient with hypertrophic cardi
Objective: The most common pathogenesis for familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) involves misprocessing (or alternative processing) of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by c-secretase due to mutations of the presenilin 1 (PS1) gene. This misprocessing/alternative processing leads to an increase in t
We report a 64-year-old man presenting with multiple symmetric lipomatosis (MSL) and mitochondrial encephalomyoneuropathy. The diagnosis of a mitochondrial cytopathy was based on the typical clinical symptoms and signs, including chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia, hearing impairment, cere
