中国人Leber遗传性视神经病变线粒体DNA突变频谱

目的 分析中国人Leber遗传性视神经病变（Leber′s hereditary optic neuropathy, LHON）线粒体DNA（mitochondrial DNA, mtDNA）3个原发致病基因突变的频谱及其遗传特征。 方法 分别用突变特异性引物聚合酶链反应(mutation-specific priming polymerase chain reaction, MSP-PCR)、异源双链-单链构象多态性（heteroduplex-single strand conformation polymorphism polymerase chain reaction,HA-SSCP ） 、限制性片段长度多态性(restriction fragment length polymorphisms,RFLP)和DNA测序等方法,对140个LHON家系的先证者（男120人,女20人）进行mtDNA 3个原发致病突变位点,即G11778A、G3460A和T14484C的检测,并对这些患者的家系进行遗传分析。 结果 在140例LHON 先证者中,130例（男113人,女17人）为G11778A位点突变,占92.9%;2例（男、女各1人）为G3460A位点突变,占1.4％;8例（男6人,女2人）为T14484C位点突变,占5.7%。 结论 中国人LHON患者mtDNA 3个原发致病突变中,以G11778A位点突变为主,少数为G3460A 和T14484C位点的突变。（中华眼底病杂志,2003,19：269-332）

Spectrum of pathologic mitochondria DNA mutations in Chinese patients with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy

Objective To investigate the spectrum of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations in Chinese patients with Leber′s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON). Methods The primary mtDNA mutations (G3460A、G11778A and T14484 C) of 140 patients with LHON were detected by mutation-specific priming polymerase chain reaction (MSP-PCR), heteroduplex-single strand conformation polymorphism polymerase chain reaction (HA-SSCP), restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) and measurement of DNA sequence. The transmissibility of the patients′ stirps was analyzed.Results In the 140 patients with LHON, G11778A mtDNA primary mutation was found in 130 (92.9%), including 113 males and 17 females; G3460A mutation was found in 2 (1.4%) including 1 male and 1 female; G14484A mutation was found in 8 (5.7% ) including 6 males and 2 females.Conclusion In Chinese patients with LHON, the incidence of G11778A mtDNA mutation is higher than that of G3460A and T14484C.
