Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndromes are disorders characterized by infantile-onset, severe progression, and the drastic loss of mtDNA content in affected tissues. In a patient who showed severe hypotonia, proximal tubulopathy and sensorineural hearing loss after birth, we observed severe mtDNA depletion and impaired respiratory chain activity in muscle due to heterozygous variants c.686G > T and c.551-2A > G in encoding the p53R2 subunit of the ribonucleotide reductase.
线粒体DNA(mtDNA)耗竭综合征是一类以婴儿期发病、病情严重进展以及受累组织中mtDNA含量急剧减少为特征的疾病。在一名出生后出现严重肌张力减退、近端肾小管病和感音神经性听力损失的患者中,我们观察到由于核糖核苷酸还原酶p53R2亚基编码基因中的杂合变异c.686G>T和c.551-2A>G,导致其肌肉中出现严重的mtDNA耗竭以及呼吸链活性受损。
