Mitochondrial DNA copy number in affected and unaffected LHON mutation carriers
OBJECTIVES: Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is a mitochondrial genetic disease characterized by a variable and reduced penetrance. Individuals carrying a primary LHON-causing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutation may either remain asymptomatic lifelong, as unaffected carriers, or develop sud...
