Cardiomyopathies and mitochondrial DNA mutations

N Takeda. Mol Cell Biochem. 1997 Nov.

Abstract

Our former studies concerning mitochondrial DNA mutations were reviewed in this article. A 7.4 kb deletion between the D-loop and ATPase 6 genes was detected in myocardial tissue obtained at autopsy from patients with myocardial infarction, diabetes mellitus and also patients treated with adriamycin. A case with diabetes mellitus and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is demonstrated which revealed a point mutation from adenine to guanine at position 3243 within tRNA Leu(UUR).
