Mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) accumulate during aging, but their significance to longevity and age-associated disease has been uncertain. Recently, in support of the hypothesis that mtDNA integrity is important, we have shown that age-associated diseases arise more rapidly in mice where mtDNA mutations and increased levels of apoptosis occur at higher rates than normal due to expression of an error-prone mtDNA polymerase. Further studies in this model may provide deeper insights into the relationship between mitochondria, aging, and susceptibility to age-associated diseases, such as cancer.
