[Deletions of mitochondrial DNA in Kearns-Sayre syndrome].
Single large-scale deletions of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are found in 70 to 80% of Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) patients. Most deletions are flanked by direct repeats up to 13 nucleotides in length.… Expand

Determination of language dominance with synthetic aperture magnetometry: comparison with the Wada test
TLDR
Synthetic aperture magnetometry (SAM) is a spatial filtering technique that enables demonstration of the spatiotemporal distribution of oscillatory changes (synchronization and desynchronization) in magnetoencephalography signals elicited by specific brain activation. Expand

Treatment of Kearns‐Sayre syndrome with coenzyme Q10
We studied the metabolism of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ) and the effects of CoQ therapy in five patients with Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS). Although the mitochondrial fraction was increased in muscles from KSS… Expand

Improvement of abnormal pyruvate metabolism and cardiac conduction defect with coenzyme Ql0 in Kearns‐Sayre syndrome
In a patient with Kearns-Sayre syndrome, concentration of coenzyme Ql0, a component of the mito-chondrial electron transport system, was decreased in serum and in the mitochondrial fraction of… Expand

Marked reduction in CSF lactate and pyruvate levels after CoQ therapy in a patient with mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactic acidosis and stroke‐like episodes (MELAS)
Many CoQ trials for mitochondrial encephalomyopathy are reported, however, the action of CoQ in the central nervous system is unknown. We administered CoQ to a patient with MELAS, and decreasing CSF… Expand

Familial amyloid polyneuropathy associated with the transthyretin Cys114 gene in a Japanese kindred.
A Japanese kindred with dominantly inherited amyloid polyneuropathy, commonly called familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP), has been identified. Amyloid protein was transthyretin (TTR) related and… Expand

New mutant gene (transthyretin Arg 58) in cases with hereditary polyneuropathy detected by non-isotope method of single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis.
Single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) was analyzed to detect a mutation in the transthyretin (TTR) gene from the mother and son showing polyneuropathy with carpal tunnel syndrome. DNA… Expand
