Pearson marrow pancreas syndrome (PMPS) is a sporadic mitochondrial disease, resulting from the clonal expansion of a mutated mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule bearing a macro-deletion, and therefore missing essential genetic information. PMPS is characterized by the presence of deleted (Δ) mtDNA that co-exist with the presence of a variable amount of wild-type mtDNA, a condition termed heteroplasmy. All tissues of the affected individual, including the haemopoietic system and the post-mitotic, highly specialized tissues (brain, skeletal muscle, and heart) contain the large-scale mtDNA deletion in variable amount. We generated human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from two PMPS patients, carrying different type of large-scale deletion.

Abstract

Pearson marrow pancreas syndrome (PMPS) is a sporadic mitochondrial disease, resulting from the clonal expansion of a mutated mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule bearing a macro-deletion, and therefore missing essential genetic information. PMPS is characterized by the presence of deleted (Δ) mtDNA that co-exist with the presence of a variable amount of wild-type mtDNA, a condition termed heteroplasmy. All tissues of the affected individual, including the haemopoietic system and the post-mitotic, highly specialized tissues (brain, skeletal muscle, and heart) contain the large-scale mtDNA deletion in variable amount. We generated human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from two PMPS patients, carrying different type of large-scale deletion.
