OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of mitochondrial DNA mutations and genotype-phenotype correlations in mitochondrial encephalomyopathies.
METHODS: Biopsy of skeletal muscle and collection of peripheral blood samples were conducted among 97 patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathies. Southern blotting, PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing of PCR products were performed to search large scale deletions, and common and uncommon pathological point mutations in the muscle and/or blood mtDNA.
RESULTS: Seventy-seven patients were identified to be with mitochondrial DNA mutations, including single large deletion (n = 21), multiple large-scale deletions (n = 4), A3243G point mutation (n = 43), A8344G point mutation (n = 6), T8993G mutation (n = 1), T8993C mutation (n = 1), and T3271C mutation (n = 1). Total mtDNA sequencing revealed 4 different novel point mutations in four unrelated patients with isolated mitochondrial myopathy.
CONCLUSION: The type and frequency of mtDNA mutations in this series of Chinese mitochondrial encephalopathies are consistent with those reported abroad, Although there is some association between the genotype and phenotype, heterogeneity in phenotype and genotype is also a prominent feature seen in this series of patients, especially those with A3243G mutation.
