Many cancers have high frequently of mtDNA with homoplasmic point mutations, and carry less frequently of mtDNA with large-scale deletions as compared with corresponding non-cancerous tissue. Moreover, most cancers harbor a decreased copy number of mtDNA than their corresponding non-cancerous tissue. However, it is unclear whether the process of decreasing in mtDNA content would be involved in an increase in the heteroplasmic level of somatic mtDNA point mutation, and/or involved in a decrease in the proportion of mtDNA with large-scale deletion in cancer cells. In this study, we provided evidence that the heteroplasmic levels of variations in cytidine number in np 303-309 poly C tract of mtDNA in three colon cancer cells were not changed during an ethidium bromide-induced mtDNA depleting process. In the mtDNA depleting process, the proportions of mtDNA with 4977-bp deletion in cybrid cells were not significantly altered. These results suggest that the decreasing process of mtDNA copy number per se may neither contribute to the shift of homoplasmic/heteroplasmic state of point mutation in mtDNA nor to the decrease in proportion of mtDNA with large-scale deletions in cancer cells. Mitochondrial genome instability and reduced mtDNA copy number may independently occur in human cancer. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=20550 ------>authors2=LS Hsu ------>authors3=PH Yin ------>authors4=LM Lee ------>authors5=CW Chi ------>authors6= ------>authors6_c= ------>authors=HC Lee* ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c= ------>publish_area=0 ------>updateTitle=Heteroplasmic mutation of mitochondrial DNA D-loop and 4977-bp deletion in human cancer cells during mitochondrial DNA depletion. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=None ------>no=1-2 ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2007 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=1 |
