Mashup Score: 0Researchers find weaker immune response to viral infections in children with mitochondrial disorders - 10 month(s) ago
In a new study, National Institutes of Health (NIH) researchers found that altered B cell function in children with mitochondrial disorders led to a weaker and less diverse antibody response to viral infections. The study, published in Frontiers in Immunology was led by researchers at the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), who analyzed gene activity of immune cells in children with…

Mashup Score: 3A retrospective study on the efficacy of prenatal diagnosis for pregnancies at risk of mitochondrial DNA disorders - 3 year(s) ago
Prenatal diagnosis of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders is challenging due to potential instability of fetal mutant loads and paucity of data connecting prenatal mutant loads to postnatal observations. Retrospective study of our prenatal cohort aims to examine the efficacy of prenatal diagnosis to improve counseling and reproductive options for those with pregnancies at risk of mtDNA disorders….
