Exploring Mitochondrial DNA Mutations with Mosaicism in Cancer and Aging
Currently, we know that genomic variations are gathered up in somatic cells as one age, but we have a limited understanding of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mosaicism. mtDNA has many effects on various diseases, particularly cancer, and they might have a role in the aging process. Unlike nuclear DNA, which is inherited from both parents, mtDNA…
