Cybrid technology was used to replace Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) causing mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations from patient-specific fibroblasts with wildtype mtDNA, and mutation-free induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were generated subsequently. Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) differentiation demonstrates increased cell death in LHON-RGCs and can be rescued in cybrid corrected RGCs.
采用胞质杂种技术,用野生型线粒体DNA取代来自患者特异性成纤维细胞的导致线粒体DNA(mtDNA)突变的Leber遗传性视神经病变(LHON),随后生成无突变的诱导多能干细胞(iPSC)。视网膜神经节细胞(RGC)分化表明LHON-RGC中细胞死亡增加,而在胞质杂种校正的RGC中这种情况可以得到挽救。
