Mitochondrial DNA copy number in human disease: the more the better?

Roberta Filograna et al.

Summary: During evolution, mitochondria have lost or transferred most genetic information to the nucleus, but they still retain their own genome. Mammalian mtDNA encodes 13 proteins, accounting for only 1% of the mitochondrial proteome. Mutations in mtDNA often affect only a fraction of the copies present in each cell.

Deciphering the genetic and epidemiological landscape of mitochondrial DNA abundance

Sara Hagg et al.

Summary: This study investigated the factors influencing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) abundance, revealing that it is higher in women compared to men and negatively correlated with age, smoking exposure, BMI, frailty index, and certain blood biochemistry markers. Genome-wide association study identified 50 regions significantly associated with mtDNA abundance, indicating the involvement of genes related to immunity, cancer, and mitochondrial function. The SNP-heritability of mtDNA abundance was estimated to be around 8%, and mtDNA abundance was found to be associated with leukemia, hematologic diseases, and hypertension.

Dietary patterns and biomarkers of oxidative stress and inflammation: A systematic review of observational and intervention studies

Krasimira Aleksandrova et al.

Summary: This review of observational studies and intervention trials in the past five years found that plant-based dietary patterns, such as the Mediterranean and DASH diet, were associated with lower levels of oxidative stress and inflammation. On the other hand, western and fast food diets were positively associated with higher levels of oxidative stress and inflammation. Further large-scale intervention trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Respiratory complex and tissue lineage drive recurrent mutations in tumour mtDNA

Alexander N. Gorelick et al.

Summary: Using whole-exome sequencing data, the study identified lineage-specific somatic mutations in mitochondrial DNA that impact cancer progression and patient prognosis. The findings suggest a clear functional relationship between pathogenic mtDNA mutations and overall survival of colorectal cancer patients, highlighting the disrupted nature of the mitochondrial genome across various cancers and its implications for patient stratification, prognosis, and therapeutic development.
