Co-occurrence of double pathogenic mtDNA mutations with different claimed pathological roles in one mtDNA is infrequent. It is tentative to believe that each of these pathogenic mutations would have its own deleterious effect. Here we reported one three-generation Chinese family with a high penetrance of LHON (78.6%). Analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome in the proband revealed the presence of the LHON primary mutation G11778A in the NADH dehydrogenase 4 (ND4) gene and a deafness-associated mutation A1555G in the 12S rRNA gene. The other mtDNA variants in this family suggested a haplogroup status G2b. Although A1555G has long been confirmed to be a primary mutation for aminoglycoside-induced and non-syndromic hearing loss, none of the maternally related members in this family showed hearing impairment. It thus seems that the occurrence of A1555G in this family had no pathological manifestation. However, whether A1555G has a synergistic effect with G11778A and contribute to the high penetrance of LHON remained an open question. To our knowledge, this is the first report that identified the co-existence of a deafness mutation A1555G and a primary LHON mutation G11778A in one family.  相似文献

Pathogenetic mutations in mtDNA are found in the majority of patients with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), and molecular genetic techniques to detect them are important for the diagnosis. A false-positive molecular genetic error has adverse consequences for the diagnosis of this maternally inherited disease. We found a number of mtDNA polymorphisms that occur adjacent to known LHON-associated mutations and that confound their molecular genetic detection. These transition mutations occur at mtDNA nt 11779 (SfaNI site loss, 11778 mutation), nt 3459 (BsaHI site loss, 3460 mutation), nt 15258 (AccI site loss, 15257 mutation), nt 14485 (mismatch primer Sau3AI site loss, 14484 mutation), and nt 13707 (BstNI site loss, 13708 mutation). Molecular genetic detection of the most common pathogenetic mtDNA mutations in LHON, using a single restriction enzyme, may be confounded by adjacent polymorphisms that occur with a false-positive rate of 2%-7%.  相似文献

Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a form of blindness caused by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations in complex I genes. We report an extensive biochemical analysis of the mitochondrial defects in lymphoblasts and transmitochondrial cybrids harboring the three most common LHON mutations: 3460A, 11778A, and 14484C. Respiration studies revealed that the 3460A mutation reduced the maximal respiration rate 20-28%, the 11778A mutation 30-36%, and the 14484C mutation 10-15%. The respiration defects of the 3460A and 11778A mutations transferred in cybrid experiments linking these defects to the mtDNA. Complex I enzymatic assays revealed that the 3460A mutation resulted in a 79% reduction in specific activity and the 11778A mutation resulted in a 20% reduction, while the 14484C mutation did not affect the complex I activity. The enzyme defect of the 3460A mutation transferred with the mtDNA in cybrids. Overall, these data support the conclusion that the 3460A and 11778A mutants result in complex I defects and that the 14484C mutation causes a much milder biochemical defect. These studies represent the first direct comparison of oxidative phosphorylation defects among all of the primary LHON mtDNA mutations, thus permitting insight into the underlying pathophysiological mechanism of the disease.  相似文献

Disease-causing mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are typically heteroplasmic and therefore interpretation of genetic tests for mitochondrial disorders can be problematic. Detection of low level heteroplasmy is technically demanding and it is often difficult to discriminate between the absence of a mutation or the failure of a technique to detect the mutation in a particular tissue. The reliable measurement of heteroplasmy in different tissues may help identify individuals who are at risk of developing specific complications and allow improved prognostic advice for patients and family members. We have evaluated Pyrosequencing technology for the detection and estimation of heteroplasmy for six mitochondrial point mutations associated with the following diseases: Leber's hereditary optical neuropathy (LHON), G3460A, G11778A, and T14484C; mitochondrial encephalopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS), A3243G; myoclonus epilepsy with ragged red fibers (MERRF), A8344G, and neurogenic muscle weakness, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa (NARP)/Leighs: T8993G/C. Results obtained from the Pyrosequencing assays for 50 patients with presumptive mitochondrial disease were compared to those obtained using the commonly used diagnostic technique of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction enzyme digestion. The Pyrosequencing assays provided accurate genotyping and quantitative determination of mutational load with a sensitivity and specificity of 100%. The MELAS A3243G mutation was detected reliably at a level of 1% heteroplasmy. We conclude that Pyrosequencing is a rapid and robust method for detecting heteroplasmic mitochondrial point mutations.  相似文献

文章收集了7例携带线粒体tRNAAl。C5601T突变的中国Leber遗传性视神经病变(Leber’s hereditary opticneuropathy,LHON)的家系,通过眼科检查和遗传学分析,发现7个家系的外显率很低,分别为9.5%、14.3%、4.5%、8.3%、10.0%、22.2%和25.0%。用24对有部分重叠的引物对7个先证者线粒体DNA(Mitochondrial DNA,mtDNA)全序列进行扩增,并进行相关的分子生物学分析,结果发现这些家系均未携带G11778A、G3460A和T14484C这3个常见的原发突变位点,而在tRNAAla上发现了C5601T同质性突变,多态性位点分析分别属于东亚线粒体单体型G2、G2a1、G2a1、G2、G2b、G2a1、G2。C5601T突变位于线粒体tRNAAla的高度保守区(通用位点为59位),可能引起tRNA空间结构和稳定性发生改变,继而影响tRNA的代谢,导致线粒体蛋白和ATP合成障碍,最终导致视力损害。因此,tRNAAlaC5601T突变可能是与LHON相关的线粒体突变位点。同时低外显率提示其他因素(包括核修饰基因、环境因素)可能影响这7个中国C5601T突变家系的表型表达。  相似文献

To investigate the spectrum of common mitochondrial mutations in Northern China during the years of 2000-2005, 552 patients of mitochondrial encephalomyopathies clinically diagnosed as MELAS, MERRF or Leigh's syndrome, 14 cases of LHON and 46 cases of aminoglycoside induced deafness along with their family members, accepted routine point mutation tests at nucleotide positions 3243, 8344, 8993, 11778 or 1555 in mitochondrial genome. PCR-RFLP analysis, site-specific PCR and PCR-sequencing methods were used to identify the mutations. Fifty-seven cases with A3243G mutation, 4 cases with A8344G, 2 cases with T8993C and 1 case with T8993G were identified from the 552 encephalomyopathy patients. In addition, one case with G11778A was found from the 14 cases of LHON, and 5 cases with A1555G from the 46 cases of aminoglycoside ototoxicity patients. Additional screening for T8356G and T3271C merely had limited significance for the diagnosis of MERRF and MELAS. Differential diagnosis among mitochondrial encephalomyopathies was often complicated due to many similar clinical manifestations. For A3243G mutation, the proportion of mutant mtDNA was not related to severity of the disease but to the age of onset.  相似文献

Leber''s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a maternally inherited blinding disease due to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) point mutations in complex I subunit genes, whose incomplete penetrance has been attributed to both genetic and environmental factors. Indeed, the mtDNA background defined as haplogroup J is known to increase the penetrance of the 11778/ND4 and 14484/ND6 mutations. Recently it was also documented that the professional exposure to n-hexane might act as an exogenous trigger for LHON. Therefore, we here investigate the effect of the n-hexane neurotoxic metabolite 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) on cell viability and mitochondrial function of different cell models (cybrids and fibroblasts) carrying the LHON mutations on different mtDNA haplogroups. The viability of control and LHON cybrids and fibroblasts, whose mtDNAs were completely sequenced, was assessed using the MTT assay. Mitochondrial ATP synthesis rate driven by complex I substrates was determined with the luciferine/luciferase method. Incubation with 2,5-HD caused the maximal loss of viability in control and LHON cells. The toxic effect of this compound was similar in control cells irrespective of the mtDNA background. On the contrary, sensitivity to 2,5-HD induced cell death was greatly increased in LHON cells carrying the 11778/ND4 or the 14484/ND6 mutation on haplogroup J, whereas the 11778/ND4 mutation in association with haplogroups U and H significantly improved cell survival. The 11778/ND4 mutation on haplogroup U was also more resistant to inhibition of complex I dependent ATP synthesis by 2,5-HD. In conclusion, this study shows that mtDNA haplogroups modulate the response of LHON cells to 2,5-HD. In particular, haplogroup J makes cells more sensitive to its toxic effect. This is the first evidence that an mtDNA background plays a role by interacting with an environmental factor and that 2,5-HD may be a risk element for visual loss in LHON. This proof of principle has broad implications for other neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson''s disease.  相似文献

Mitochondrial DNA background has been shown to be involved in the penetrance of Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) in western Eurasian populations. To analyze mtDNA haplogroup distribution pattern in Han Chinese patients with LHON and G11778A mutation, we analyzed the mtDNA haplogroups of 41 probands with LHON known to harbor G11778A mutation by sequencing the mtDNA control region hypervariable segments and some coding region polymorphisms. Each mtDNA was classified according to the available East Asian haplogroup system. The haplogroup distribution pattern of LHON sample was then compared to the reported Han Chinese samples. Haplogroups M7, D, B, and A were detected in 11 (26.8%), 10 (24.4%), 8 (19.5%), and 5 (12.2%) LHON families, respectively, and accounted for 82.9% of the total samples examined. For the remaining seven mtDNAs, six belonged to M8a, M10a, C, N9a, F1a, and R11, respectively, and one could only be assigned into macro-haplogroup M. The LHON sample was distinguished from other Han Chinese samples in the principal component map based on haplogroup distribution frequency. Our results show that matrilineal genetic components of Chinese LHON patients with G11778A are diverse and differ from related Han Chinese regional samples. mtDNA background might affect the expression of LHON and the G11778A mutation in Chinese population.  相似文献

The development of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which routinely can amplify specific target sequences more than one billion-fold, has made it possible to produce readily detectable amounts of DNA from a few copies of very rare sequences. We have begun a study of mitochondrial myopathies with the purpose of developing a diagnostic test using PCR to amplify appropriate mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) target sequences from small amounts of sample. We have developed a 15-min procedure for recovering mtDNA which can be amplified by PCR to detectable levels, from as little as 30 μl of blood or 5 μl of amniotic fluid. We have microscopically selected HL60 cells, and have found that 28 cycles of PCR allows the detection of mitochondrial targets from a single cell. Using micromanipulation techniques, we utilized this approach to analyze mtDNA from a single cell isolated from an 8-cell stage mouse blastocyst. Finally, a single cell cultured from a patient with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy, a mitochondrial myopathy, provided sufficient mtDNA for detection of the single base substitution that leads to loss of a restriction endonuclease recognition site for SfaNI and generation of a site for MaeIII.  相似文献

Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) is one of the commonest mitochondrial diseases. It causes total blindness, and predominantly affects young males. For the disease to develop, it is necessary for an individual to carry one of the primary mtDNA mutations 11778G>A, 14484T>C or 3460G>A. However these mutations are not sufficient to cause disease, and they do not explain the characteristic features of LHON such as the higher prevalence in males, incomplete penetrance, and relatively later age of onset. In order to explore the roles of nuclear encoded mitochondrial proteins in development of LHON, we applied a proteomic approach to samples from affected and unaffected individuals from 3 pedigrees and from 5 unrelated controls. Two-dimensional electrophoresis followed by MS/MS analysis in the mitochondrial lysate identified 17 proteins which were differentially expressed between LHON cases and unrelated controls, and 24 proteins which were differentially expressed between unaffected relatives and unrelated controls. The proteomic data were successfully validated by western blot analysis of 3 selected proteins. All of the proteins identified in the study were mitochondrial proteins and most of them were down regulated in 11778G>A mutant fibroblasts. These proteins included: subunits of OXPHOS enzyme complexes, proteins involved in intermediary metabolic processes, nucleoid related proteins, chaperones, cristae remodelling proteins and an anti-oxidant enzyme. The protein profiles of both the affected and unaffected 11778G>A carriers shared many features which differed from those of unrelated control group, revealing similar proteomic responses to 11778G>A mutation in both affected and unaffected individuals. Differentially expressed proteins revealed two broad groups: a cluster of bioenergetic pathway proteins and a cluster involved in protein quality control system. Defects in these systems are likely to impede the function of retinal ganglion cells, and may lead to the development of LHON in synergy with the primary mtDNA mutation.  相似文献

A single base mutation at nucleotide position 3460 (nt 3460) in the ND1 gene in human mtDNA was found to be associated with Leber hereditary optic neuroretinopathy (LHON). The G-to-A mutation converts an alanine to a threonine at the 52d codon of the gene. The mutation also abolishes an AhaII restriction site and thus can be detected easily by RFLP analysis. The mutation was found in three independent Finnish LHON families but in none of the 60 controls. None of the families with the nt 3460 mutation in ND1 had the previously reported nt 11778 mutation in the ND4 gene. The G-to-A change at nt 3460 is the second mutation so far detected in LHON.  相似文献

Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a type of blindness caused by mtDNA mutations. Three LHON mtDNA mutations at nucleotide positions 3460, 11778, and 14484 are specific for LHON and account for 90% of worldwide cases and are thus designated as "primary" LHON mutations. Fifteen other "secondary" LHON mtDNA mutations have been identified, but their pathogenicity is unclear. mtDNA haplotype and phylogenetic analysis of the primary LHON mutations in North American Caucasian patients and controls has shown that, unlike the 3460 and 11778 mutations, which are distributed throughout the European-derived (Caucasian) mtDNA phylogeny, patients containing the 14484 mutation tended to be associated with European mtDNA haplotype J. To investigate this apparent clustering, we performed chi2-based statistical analyses to compare the distribution of LHON patients on the Caucasian phylogenetic tree. Our results indicate that, unlike the 3460 and 11778 mutations, the 14484 mutation was not distributed on the phylogeny in proportion to the frequencies of the major Caucasian mtDNA haplogroups found in North America. The 14484 mutation was next shown to occur on the haplogroup J background more frequently that expected, consistent with the observation that approximately 75% of worldwide 14484-positive LHON patients occur in association with haplogroup J. The 11778 mutation also exhibited a moderate clustering on haplogroup J. These observations were supported by statistical analysis using all available mutation frequencies reported in the literature. This paper thus illustrates the potential importance of genetic background in certain mtDNA-based diseases, speculates on a pathogenic role for a subset of LHON secondary mutations and their interaction with primary mutations, and provides support for a polygenic model for LHON expression in some cases.  相似文献

Leber's hereditary optic neuroretinopathy (LHON) is manifested as a bilateral acute or subacute loss of central vision due to optic atrophy. It is linked to point mutations of mitochondrial DNA, which is inherited maternally. The most common mitochondrial DNA point mutations associated with LHON are G3460A, G11778A and T14484C. These mutations are linked with the defects of subunits of the complex I (NADH-dehydrogenase-ubiquinone reductase) in mitochondria. The G11778A mitochondrial DNA point mutation is manifested by a severe visual impairment. In this paper two Croatian families with the LHON G11778A mutation are presented. Three LHON patients from two families were younger males which had the visual acuity of 0.1 or below, the ophthalmoscopy revealed telangiectatic microangiopathy and papilloedema, while Goldmann kinetic perimetry showed a central scotoma. The mothers and female relatives were LHON mutants without symptoms, whereas their sons suffered from a severe visual impairment. Molecular diagnosis helps to explain the cause of LHON disease.  相似文献

A G-to-A transition at nucleotide pair (np) 7444 in the mtDNA was found to correlate with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). The mutation eliminates the termination codon of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene, extending the COI polypeptide by three amino acids. The mutation was discovered as an XbaI restriction-endonuclease-site loss present in 2 (9.1%) of 22 LHON patients who lacked the np 11778 LHON mutation and in 6 (1.1%) of 545 unaffected controls. The mutant polypeptide has an altered mobility on SDS-PAGE, suggesting a structural alteration, and the cytochrome c oxidase enzyme activity of patient lymphocytes is reduced approximately 40% relative to that in controls. These data suggest that the np 7444 mutation results in partial respiratory deficiency and thus contributes to the onset of LHON.  相似文献

We report here the clinical, genetic, and molecular characterization of three Chinese families (WZ4, WZ5, and WZ6) with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). Clinical and genetic evaluations revealed the variable severity and age-of-onset in visual impairment in these families. Penetrances of visual impairment in these Chinese families were 33.3%, 35.7%, and 35.5%, respectively, with an average 34.8%. Furthermore, the average age-at-onset in those Chinese families was 17, 20, and 18 years. In addition, the ratios between affected male and female matrilineal relatives in these Chinese families were 3:0, 1:1, and 1.2:1, respectively. Sequence analysis of the complete mitochondrial genomes in these pedigrees showed the distinct sets of mtDNA polymorphism, in addition to the identical G11778A mutation associated with LHON in many families. The fact that mtDNA of those pedigrees belonged to different haplogroups F1, D4, and M10 suggested that the G11778A mutation occurred sporadically and multiplied through evolution of the mtDNA in China. However, there was the absence of functionally significant mutations in tRNA and rRNAs or secondary LHON mutations in these Chinese families. The I187T mutation in the ND1, the S99A mutation in the A6, the V254I in CO3, and I58V in ND6 mutation, showing high evolutional conservation, may contribute to the phenotypic expression of the G11778A mutation in the WZ6 pedigree. By contrast, none of mtDNA variants are evolutionarily conserved and implicated to have significantly functional consequence in WZ4 and WZ5 pedigrees. Apparently, these variants do not have a potential modifying role in the development of visual impairment associated with G11778A mutation in those two families. Thus, nuclear modifier gene(s) or environmental factor(s) seem to account for the penetrance and expressivity of LHON in these three Chinese families carrying the G11778A mutation.  相似文献

Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is an optic nerve dysfunction resulting from mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), which is transmitted in a maternal pattern of inheritance. It is caused by three primary point mutations: G11778A, G3460A and T14484C; in the mitochondrial genome. These mutations are sufficient to induce the disease, accounting for the majority of LHON cases, and affect genes that encode for the different subunits of mitochondrial complexes I and III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Other mutations are secondary mutations associated with the primary mutations. The purpose of this study was to determine MT-ND variations in Iranian patients with LHON. In order to determine the prevalence and distribution of mitochondrial mutations in the LHON patients, their DNA was studied using PCR and DNA sequencing analysis. Sequencing of MT-ND genes from 35 LHON patients revealed a total of 44 nucleotide variations, in which fifteen novel variations—A14020G, A13663G, C10399T, C4932A, C3893G, C10557A, C12012A, C13934T, G4596A, T12851A, T4539A, T4941A, T13255A, T14353C and del A 4513—were observed in 27 LHON patients. However, eight patients showed no variation in the ND genes. These mutations contribute to the current database of mtDNA polymorphisms in LHON patients and may facilitate the definition of disease-related mutations in human mtDNA. This research may help to understand the disease mechanism and open up new diagnostic opportunities for LHON.  相似文献

We report here the characterization of a five-generation large Chinese family with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). Very strikingly, six affected individuals of 38 matrilineal relatives (17 females/21 males) are exclusively males in this Chinese family. These matrilineal relatives in this family exhibited late-onset/progressive visual impairment with a wide range of severity, ranging from blindness to normal vision. The age of onset in visual impairment varies from 17 to 30 years. Sequence analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome in this pedigree revealed the presence of the G11778A mutation in ND4 gene and 29 other variants. This mitochondrial genome belongs to the Southern Chinese haplogroup B5b. We showed that the G11778A mutation is present at near homoplasmy in matrilineal relatives of this Chinese family but not in 164 Chinese controls. Incomplete penetrance of LHON in this family indicates the involvement of modulatory factors in the phenotypic expression of visual dysfunction associated with the G11778A mutation. However, none of other mtDNA variants are evolutionarily conserved and implicated to have significantly functional consequence. Thus, nuclear modifier gene(s) or environmental factor(s) seem to account for the penetrance and phenotypic variability of LHON in this Chinese family carrying the G11778A mutation.  相似文献

The ND4 G11778A mutation is the most common mitochondrial DNA mutation leading to Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). Despite considerable clinical evidences, the modifier role of nuclear background and mitochondrial haplotypes in phenotypic manifestation of LHON remains poorly understood. We investigated the effect of these modifiers on bioenergetics in lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from five affected subjects of one Chinese family carrying the G11778A mutation and five Chinese controls. Significant reductions in the activities of complexes I and III were observed in mutant cell lines from the Chinese family, whereas the mutant cell lines from other families carrying the same mutation exhibited only reduced activity of complex I. The reduced activities of complexes I and III caused remarkably higher reductions of ATP synthesis in mutant cell lines from the Chinese family than those from other families. The deficient respiration increased generation of reactive oxygen species. The defect in complex III activity, likely resulting from the mitochondrial haplotype or nuclear gene alteration, worsens mitochondrial dysfunction caused by the G11778A mutation, thereby causing extremely high penetrance and expressivity of optic neuropathy in this Chinese family. Our data provide the first experimental evidence that altered activity of complex III modulates the phenotypic manifestation of LHON-associated G11778A mutation. Thus, our findings may provide new insights into the pathophysiology of LHON.  相似文献

About two-thirds of patients with Leber hereditary optic neuroretinopathy (LHON) harbor mutations in mitochondrial DNA at positions 11778 (ND4) or 3460 (ND1). Thus, the clinical diagnosis of LHON can often be confirmed with mutation analysis. Detection of pathogenic mutations and quantification of heteroplasmy has mainly relied on PCR and restriction site analysis and densitometric scanning. We applied the recently developed solid-phase minisequencing method, based on primerguided nucleotide incorporation, to the simultaneous detection and quantitation of the ND4/11778 and ND1/3460 mutations. The method was highly sensitive, heteroplasmy as low as 1.5% being easily detected. Rapid, reproducible, and accurate results prove solid-phase minisequencing to be the method of choice for quantitative analysis of LHON mutations.  相似文献

The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences for 63 Dutch pedigrees with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) were determined, 56 of which carried one of the classic LHON mutations at nucleotide (nt) 3460, 11778, or 14484. Analysis of these sequences indicated that there were several instances in which the mtDNAs were either identical or related by descent. The most striking example was a haplogroup J mtDNA that carried the 14484 LHON mutation. Four different but related mitochondrial genotypes were identified in seven of the Dutch pedigrees with LHON, including six of those described by van Senus. The control region of the founder sequence for these Dutch pedigrees with LHON matches the control-region sequence that Macmillan and colleagues identified in the founder mtDNA of French Canadian pedigrees with LHON. In addition, we obtained a perfect match between the Dutch 14484 founder sequence and the complete mtDNA sequences of two Canadian pedigrees with LHON. Those results indicate that these Dutch and French Canadian 14484 pedigrees with LHON share a common ancestor, that the single origin of the 14484 mutation in this megalineage occurred before the year 1600, and that there is a 14484/haplogroup J founder effect. We estimate that this lineage--including the 14484 LHON mutation--arose 900-1,800 years ago. Overall, the phylogenetic analyses of these mtDNA sequences conservatively indicate that a LHON mutation has arisen at least 42 times in the Dutch population. Finally, analysis of the mtDNA sequences from those pedigrees that did not carry classic LHON mutations suggested candidate pathogenic mutations at nts 9804, 13051, and 14325.  相似文献
