Mitochondrial biogenesis dysfunction and metabolic dysfunction from a novel mitochondrial tRNAMet 4467 C>A mutation in a Han Chinese family with maternally inherited hypertension

Abstract To investigate the relationship between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and hypertension as well as the mechanism involved in mitochondrial metabolic dysfunction. We identified a novel tRNAMet C4467A mutation in a Han Chinese family with hypertension. The maternal members presented with increased...
