To investigate the prevalence and clinical characteristics of diabetes mellitus caused by mitochondrial gene mutations in the tRNA Leu(UUR) region, a known 'hot spot' for pathogenic mutations, we screened 440 diabetic patients with diabetic mothers for 11 mitochondrial gene mutations reported in mit
Large-scale deletions and point mutations of the mitochondrial DNA are generally accepted as being involved in the pathogenesis of diseases associated with mitochondrial encephalomyopathies such as Kearns-Sayre syndrome and chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO). We screened suspected p
Some patients with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus possess a mitochondrial mutation in the tRNA Leu(UUR) gene at position 3243 bp. These subjects show a maternal mode of inheritance and often have hearing defects. In French and Japanese populations, this mutation may be present in 1
