摘要
目的 探讨线粒体DNA在Rett综合征发病中的作用。方法应用Southern杂交、聚合酶链反应(PCR)-单链构象多态性(SSCP)分析及DNA直接测序结合错配PCR的方法,对15例Rett综合征患儿及其中14例的母亲的外周血白细胞线粒体DNA的部分片段进行分析。结果13例患儿及其中11例的母亲的线粒体DNA上,编码16SrRNA基因的2650-3000区域DNA突变,其中7例患儿及其中6例的母亲存在2835位点的点突变(C-T),30例正常对照均未发现有此点突变。结论线粒体DNA在Rett综合征的发病中起一定作用。
Objective To identify whether mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA ) mutation is involved in the patho- genesis of Rett syndrome (RS) , we undertook a mutation analysis of the mtDNA genome. Methods mtDNA from 15 children with RS and 14 their mothers were analysed by usitng Southern hybridization , polymerase chain reaction (PCR ) , single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP ) and DNA direct sequencing. Total DNA was isolated from white blood cells. Results Southern hybridization with whole mtDNA probe revealed no large deletions in mtDNA. PCR amplification and SSCP analysis showed mutation (s) in the region 26 50-3000 encoding 1 6SrRNA of mtDNA in 1 3 RS patients and 11 their mothers. DNA sequence analysis and mismatch PCR showed a poiant mutation (C-T ) at the posi- tion 2835 in 7 RS patietnts and 6 their mothers. The same mutation was not found in 30 normal con- trols. Conclusion These data indicate that mtDNA may play a role in Rett syndrome.
