Hypoxia in a pill! Chronic, continuous 11% FIO2 suppresses brain pathology in models of mitochondrial disease and aging, but we need practical alternatives. We combine a Hb "left-shifter" with a HIF2a inhibitor to achieve therapeutic hypoxia in mice. jci.org/articles/view/…
The GENOMIT Consortium is meeting this days in Barcellona (Spain). Different expertise, different skills, different countries: together to shed light on mitochondrial diseases. #MitoAwareness
New concept for variant effect prediction. 'How bad' is the new 'how rare'. With DNA LMs we can ask how important a variant is for predicting other bases. This influence score correlates better with functional assays. This was not possible with alignment-based conservation.
We show that nucleotide dependencies indicate deleteriousness of human genetic variants more effectively than sequence alignment and DNA LM reconstruction. Example: promoter mutagenesis screen from Kircher et al.
We explored why pathogenic variants are present in the gnomAD database for early-onset, severe, dominant conditions. Explanations identified for most but some likely due to incomplete penetrance though more study needed. 1/3

High ROS production from mitochondria comes not from high energy expenditure (EE) but from having high capacity and supply and not using it (sitting idle)

Interesting new review article discussing how the rise in genomic investigations has placed an increased emphasis on the need for variant validation. Integrative -omics provide a complementary approach to better understand genomic findings. doi.org/10.1002/jimd.1…
Mitochondrial DNA mutations can lead to rare disease and accrue with age. But how does nuclear genome variation influence mtDNA variation? Here in >250k people, we find that nuclear variants can impact variation in the levels of mtDNA mutations. (1/5) medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
