Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Mitochondrial damage caused by oxidative stress is a main driver of pancreatic β-cell dysfunction in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Prohibitin2 (PHB2) is a vital inner mitochondrial membrane protein that participates in mitophagy to remove the damaged mitochondria. This study aimed to investigate the role and mechanisms of PHB2-mediated mitophagy in oxidative stress-induced pancreatic β-cell dysfunction. MATERIALS AND METHODS PHB2 and mitophagy-related protein expression were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting in RINm5F cells treated with H2O2 and islets of diabetic rats. Mitophagy was observed by mitochondrial and lysosome colocalization. RINm5F cells were transfected by phb2 siRNA or overexpression plasmid to explore the role of PHB2 in mitophagy of RINm5F cells. The mechanism of Nrf2 regulating PHB2 was explored by Nrf2 inhibitor and agonist. RESULTS The expression of PHB2, mitophagy related protein PINK1, and Parkin were decreased in RINm5F cells incubated with H2O2 and in islets of diabetic rats. Overexpression of PHB2 protected β-cells from oxidative stress by promoting mitophagy and inhibiting cell apoptosis, whereas transfection with PHB2 siRNA suppressed mitophagy. Furthermore, PHB2-mediated mitophagy induced by oxidative stress was through the Nrf2/PHB2 pathway in β-cells. Antioxidant NAC alleviated oxidative stress injury by promoting PHB2-mediated mitophagy. CONCLUSION Our study suggested that PHB2-mediated mitophagy can protect β-cells from apoptosis via the Nrf2/PHB2 pathway under oxidative stress. Antioxidants may protect β-cell from oxidative stress by prompting PHB2-mediated mitophagy. PHB2-mediated mitophagy as a potential mechanism takes part in the oxidative stress induced β-cell injury.

Long non-coding RNA H19 mediates the miR-29b/transforming growth factor-β1/Drosophila mothers against decapentaplegic 3 signalling pathway to promote bladder fibrosis in diabetic rats. Int Urol Nephrol 2024:10.1007/s11255-024-03992-z. [PMID: 38530583 DOI: 10.1007/s11255-024-03992-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Diabetic bladder fibrosis is a common comorbidity. Altered expression of some long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) has been associated with bladder fibrosis. LncRNA H19 has been reported to regulate bladder cancer through miR-29b. However, the action mechanism of LncRNA H19 in bladder fibrosis is unclear. METHODS In vitro, human bladder smooth muscle cells (HBSMCs) were cultured with transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) for 48 h to construct cell model of bladder fibrosis. HBSMCs were then transfected with si-LncRNA H19, si-NC, miR-29b-mimic, mimic-NC, or miR-29b-inhibitor. In vivo, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were given a high-sucrose-high-fat (HSHF) diet for 4 weeks and injected with streptozotocin (STZ, 50 mg/kg) to induce bladder fibrosis model in diabetic rats, followed by injection of lentiviral particles knocking down LncRNA H19 expression, empty vector, or miR-29b-inhibitor, respectively. RESULTS LncRNA H19 was up-regulated in TGF-β1-induced HBSMC fibrosis and STZ-induced diabetic rat bladder fibrosis, whereas miR-29b was down-regulated. si-LncRNA H19 reduced blood glucose levels and improved histopathological damage of bladder tissue in rats. In addition, si-LncRNA H19 or miR-29b-mimic increased the expression of E-cadherin, but decreased the expression of N-cadherin, vimentin, fibronectin (FN) in bladder tissues, and HBSMCs. si-LncRNA H19 reduced TGF-β1/p-drosophila mothers against decapentaplegic 3 (Smad3) protein in HBSMCs and in rat bladder tissues, while miR-29b-inhibitor reversed the effect of si-LncRNA H19. CONCLUSION This study indicated that LncRNA H19 may inhibit bladder fibrosis in diabetic rats by targeting miR-29b via the TGF-β1/Smad3 signalling pathway.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction represents a pivotal aspect of the pathogenesis and progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Central to the orchestration of mitochondrial biogenesis is the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1-α (PGC1-α), a master regulator with a profound impact on mitochondrial function. In the context of DKD, PGC1-α exhibits significant downregulation within intrinsic renal cells, precipitating a cascade of deleterious events. This includes a reduction in mitochondrial biogenesis, heightened levels of mitochondrial oxidative stress, perturbed mitochondrial dynamics, and dysregulated mitophagy. Concurrently, structural and functional abnormalities within the mitochondrial network ensue. In stark contrast, the sustained expression of PGC1-α emerges as a beacon of hope in maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis within intrinsic renal cells, ultimately demonstrating an impressive renoprotective potential in animal models afflicted with DKD. This comprehensive review aims to delve into the recent advancements in our understanding of the renoprotective properties wielded by PGC1-α. Specifically, it elucidates the potential molecular mechanisms underlying PGC1-α's protective effects within renal tubular epithelial cells, podocytes, glomerular endothelial cells, and mesangial cells in the context of DKD. By shedding light on these intricate mechanisms, we aspire to provide valuable insights that may pave the way for innovative therapeutic interventions in the management of DKD.

Abstract
Pancreatic beta cells utilize Ca2+ to secrete insulin in response to glucose. The glucose-dependent increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]C) activates a series of insulin secretory machinery in pancreatic beta cells. Therefore, the amount of insulin secreted in response to glucose is determined in a [Ca2+]C-dependent manner, at least within a moderate range. However, the demand for insulin secretion may surpass the capability of beta cells. Abnormal elevation of [Ca2+]C levels beyond the beta-cell endurance capacity can damage them by inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and cell death programs such as apoptosis. Therefore, while Ca2+ is essential for the insulin secretory functions of beta cells, it could affect their survival at pathologically higher levels. Because an increase in beta-cell [Ca2+]C is inevitable under certain hazardous conditions, understanding the regulatory mechanism for [Ca2+]C is important. Therefore, this review discusses beta-cell function, survival, ER stress, and apoptosis associated with intracellular and ER Ca2+ homeostasis.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a prominent pathological feature of type 2 diabetes, which contributes to β-cell mass reduction and insulin resistance. Imeglimin is a novel oral hypoglycemic agent with a unique mechanism of action targeting mitochondrial bioenergetics. Imeglimin reduces reactive oxygen species production, improves mitochondrial function and integrity, and also improves the structure and function of endoplasmic reticulum (ER), changes which enhance glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and inhibit the apoptosis of β-cells, leading to β-cell mass preservation. Further, imeglimin inhibits hepatic glucose production and ameliorates insulin sensitivity. Clinical trials into the effects of imeglimin monotherapy and combination therapy exhibited an excellent hypoglycemic efficacy and safety profile in type 2 diabetic patients. Mitochondrial impairment is closely associated with endothelial dysfunction, which is a very early event in atherosclerosis. Imeglimin improved endothelial dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes via both glycemic control-dependent and -independent mechanisms. In experimental animals, imeglimin improved cardiac and kidney function via an improvement in mitochondrial and ER function or/and an improvement in endothelial function. Furthermore, imeglimin reduced ischemia-induced brain damage. In addition to glucose-lowering effects, imeglimin can be a useful therapeutic option for diabetic complications in type 2 diabetic patients.

Abstract
Reversible phosphorylation is an important regulatory mechanism. Regulation of protein phosphorylation in β-cells has been extensively investigated, but less is known about protein dephosphorylation. To understand the role of protein dephosphorylation in β-cells and type 2 diabetes (T2D), we first examined mRNA expression of the type 2C family (PP2C) of protein phosphatases in islets from T2D donors. Phosphatase expression overall was changed in T2D, and that of PPM1E was the most markedly downregulated. PPM1E expression correlated inversely with HbA1c. Silencing of PPM1E increased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in INS-1 832/13 cells and/or islets from patients with T2D, whereas PPM1E overexpression decreased GSIS. Increased GSIS after PPM1E silencing was associated with decreased oxidative stress, elevated cytosolic Ca2+ levels and ATP to ADP ratio, increased hyperpolarization of the inner mitochondrial membrane, and phosphorylation of CaMKII, AMPK, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Silencing of PPM1E, however, did not change insulin content. Increased GSIS, cell viability, and activation of AMPK upon metformin treatment in β-cells were observed upon PPM1E silencing. Thus, protein dephosphorylation via PPM1E abrogates GSIS. Consequently, reduced PPM1E expression in T2D may be a compensatory response of β-cells to uphold insulin secretion under metabolic duress. Targeting PPM1E in β-cells may thus represent a novel therapeutic strategy for treatment of T2D.

Abstract
Morbidity and mortality from diabetes mellitus and associated illnesses is a major problem across the globe. Anti-diabetic medicines must be improved despite existing breakthroughs in treatment approaches. Diabetes has been linked to mitochondrial dysfunction. As a result, particular mitochondrial diabetes kinds like MIDD (maternally inherited diabetes & deafness) and DAD (diabetic autonomic dysfunction) have been identified and studied (diabetes and Deafness). Some mutations as in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), that encodes for a significant portion of mitochondrial proteins as well as mitochondrial tRNA essential for mitochondrial protein biosynthesis, are responsible for hereditary mitochondrial diseases. Tissue-specificity and heteroplasmy have a role in the harmful phenotype of mtDNA mutations, making it difficult to generalise findings from one study to another. There are a huge increase in the number for mtDNA mutations related with human illnesses that have been identified using current sequencing technologies. In this study, we make a list on mtDNA mutations linked with diseases and diabetic illnesses and explore the methods by which they contribute to the pathology's emergence.

Abstract
Research on the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the aging process has advanced significantly over the last two decades. In light of recent findings, ROS takes part in the aging process of cells along with contributing to various physiological signaling pathways. Antioxidants being cells' natural defense mechanism against ROS-mediated alteration, play an imperative role to maintain intracellular ROS homeostasis. Although the complete understanding of the ROS regulated aging process is yet to be fully comprehended, current insights into various sources of cellular ROS and their correlation with the aging process and age-related diseases are portrayed in this review. In addition, results on the effect of antioxidants on ROS homeostasis and the aging process as well as their advances in clinical trials are also discussed in detail. The future perspective in ROS-antioxidant dynamics on antiaging research is also marshaled to provide future directions for ROS-mediated antiaging research fields.

Abstract
Diabetes (DM), especially type 2 diabetes (T2DM) has become one of the major diseases severely threatening public health worldwide. Islet beta cell dysfunctions and peripheral insulin resistance including liver and muscle metabolic disorder play decisive roles in the pathogenesis of T2DM. Particularly, increased hepatic gluconeogenesis due to insulin deficiency or resistance is the central event in the development of fasting hyperglycemia. To maintain or restore the functions of islet beta cells and suppress hepatic gluconeogenesis is crucial for delaying or even stopping the progression of T2DM and diabetic complications. As the key energy outcome of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) plays vital roles in the process of almost all the biological activities including metabolic regulation. Cellular adenosine triphosphate participates intracellular energy transfer in all forms of life. Recently, it had also been revealed that ATP can be released by islet beta cells and hepatocytes, and the released ATP and its degraded products including ADP, AMP and adenosine act as important signaling molecules to regulate islet beta cell functions and hepatic glycolipid metabolism via the activation of P2 receptors (ATP receptors). In this review, the latest findings regarding the roles and mechanisms of intracellular and extracellular ATP in regulating islet functions and hepatic glycolipid metabolism would be briefly summarized and discussed.

Abstract
Tissue-specific cardiolipin fatty acyl profiles are achieved by remodeling of de novo synthesized cardiolipin, and four remodeling enzymes have thus far been identified. We studied the enzyme phospholipase A and acyltransferase 1 (PLAAT1), and we report the discovery that it has phosphatidylcholine (PC):monolysocardiolipin (MLCL) transacylase activity. Subcellular localization was analyzed by differential centrifugation and immunoblotting. Total levels of major phospholipids, and the fatty acyl profile of cardiolipin, were analyzed in HEK293 cells expressing murine PLAAT1 using gas chromatography. Apparent enzyme kinetics of affinity-purified PLAAT1 were calculated using radiochemical enzyme assays. This enzyme was found to localize predominantly to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) but was detected at low levels in the mitochondria-associated ER matrix. Cells expressing PLAAT1 had higher levels of total cardiolipin, but not other phospholipids, and it was primarily enriched in the saturated fatty acids myristate, palmitate, and stearate, with quantitatively smaller increases in the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids linolenate, eicosatrienoate, and eicosapentanoate and the monounsaturated fatty acid erucate. Affinity-purified PLAAT1 did not catalyze the transacylation of MLCL using 1-palmitoyl-2-[14C]-linoleoyl-PC as an acyl donor. However, PLAAT1 had an apparent Vmax of 1.61 μmol/min/mg protein and Km of 126 μM using [9,10-3H]-distearoyl-PC as an acyl donor, and 0.61 μmol/min/mg protein and Km of 16 μM using [9,10-3H]-dioleoyl-PC. PLAAT1 is therefore a novel PC:MLCL transacylase.

Is Type 2 Diabetes a Primary Mitochondrial Disorder? Cells 2022; 11:cells11101617. [PMID: 35626654 PMCID: PMC9140179 DOI: 10.3390/cells11101617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2022] [Revised: 03/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is the most common endocrine disturbance in inherited mitochondrial diseases. It is essential to increase awareness of the correct diagnosis and treatment of diabetes in these patients and screen for the condition in family members, as diabetes might appear with distinctive clinical features, complications and at different ages of onset. The severity of mitochondrial-related diabetes is likely to manifest on a large scale of phenotypes depending on the location of the mutation and whether the number of affected mitochondria copies (heteroplasmy) reaches a critical threshold. Regarding diabetes treatment, the first-choice treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2D), metformin, is not recommended because of the risk of lactic acidosis. The preferred treatment for diabetes in patients with mitochondrial disorders is SGLT-2i and mitochondrial GLP-1-related substances. The tight relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction, reduced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), and diabetes development in human patients is acknowledged. However, despite the well-characterized role of mitochondria in GSIS, there is a relative lack of data in humans implicating mitochondrial dysfunction as a primary defect in T2D. Our recent studies have provided data supporting the significant role of the mitochondrial respiratory-chain enzyme, cytochrome c oxidase (COX), in regulating GSIS in a rodent model of T2D, the Cohen diabetic sensitive (CDs) rat. The nutritionally induced diabetic CDs rat demonstrates several features of mitochondrial diseases: markedly reduced COX activity in several tissues, increased reactive oxygen production, decreased ATP generation, and increased lactate dehydrogenase expression in islets. Moreover, our data demonstrate that reduced islet-COX activity precedes the onset of diabetes, suggesting that islet-COX deficiency is the primary defect causing diabetes in this model. This review examines the possibility of including T2D as a primary mitochondrial-related disease. Understanding the critical interdependence between diabetes and mitochondrial dysfunction, centering on the role of COX, may open novel avenues to diagnose and treat diabetes in patients with mitochondrial diseases and mitochondrial dysfunction in diabetic patients.

Loss of thymidine phosphorylase activity disrupts adipocyte differentiation and induces insulin-resistant lipoatrophic diabetes. BMC Med 2022; 20:95. [PMID: 35341481 PMCID: PMC8958798 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-022-02296-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thymidine phosphorylase (TP), encoded by the TYMP gene, is a cytosolic enzyme essential for the nucleotide salvage pathway. TP catalyzes the phosphorylation of the deoxyribonucleosides, thymidine and 2'-deoxyuridine, to thymine and uracil. Biallelic TYMP variants are responsible for Mitochondrial NeuroGastroIntestinal Encephalomyopathy (MNGIE), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized in most patients by gastrointestinal and neurological symptoms, ultimately leading to death. Studies on the impact of TYMP variants in cellular systems with relevance to the organs affected in MNGIE are still scarce and the role of TP in adipose tissue remains unexplored. METHODS Deep phenotyping was performed in three patients from two families carrying homozygous TYMP variants and presenting with lipoatrophic diabetes. The impact of the loss of TP expression was evaluated using a CRISPR-Cas9-mediated TP knockout (KO) strategy in human adipose stem cells (ASC), which can be differentiated into adipocytes in vitro. Protein expression profiles and cellular characteristics were investigated in this KO model. RESULTS All patients had TYMP loss-of-function variants and first presented with generalized loss of adipose tissue and insulin-resistant diabetes. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated TP KO in ASC abolished adipocyte differentiation and decreased insulin response, consistent with the patients' phenotype. This KO also induced major oxidative stress, altered mitochondrial functions, and promoted cellular senescence. This translational study identifies a new role of TP by demonstrating its key regulatory functions in adipose tissue. CONCLUSIONS The implication of TP variants in atypical forms of monogenic diabetes shows that genetic diagnosis of lipodystrophic syndromes should include TYMP analysis. The fact that TP is crucial for adipocyte differentiation and function through the control of mitochondrial homeostasis highlights the importance of mitochondria in adipose tissue biology.

Abstract
Pancreatic β-cells couple glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) with oxidative phosphorylation via cytochrome c oxidase (COX), a mitochondrial respiratory-chain enzyme. The Cohen diabetic-sensitive (CDs) rats exhibit hyperglycemia when fed a diabetogenic diet but maintain normoglycemia on a regular diet. We have previously reported a decreased COX activity in CDs rats and explored its relevance for type 2 diabetes (T2D). In this study, we investigated the relation between COX activity in islets, peripheral-blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and GSIS during diabetes development in CDs rats fed a diabetogenic diet for 4, 11, 20, and 30 days and during reversion to normoglycemia in hyperglycemic CDs rats fed a reversion diet for 7, 11, and 20 days. An oral glucose-tolerance test was performed at different periods of the diets measuring blood glucose and insulin concentrations. COX activity was determined in islets and PBMCs isolated from rats at the different periods of the diets. We demonstrated a progressive reduction in COX activity in CDs-islets that correlated positively with the decreasing GSIS (R2 = 0.9691, p < 0.001) and inversely with the elevation in blood glucose levels (R2 = 0.8396, p < 0.001). Hyperglycemia was initiated when islet COX activity decreased below 46%. The reversion diet restored >46% of the islet COX activity and GSIS while re-establishing normoglycemia. Interestingly, COX activity in PBMCs correlated significantly with islet COX activity (R2 = 0.8944, p < 0.001). Our data support islet COX activity as a major metabolic regulator of β-cells function. The correlation between COX activity in PBMCs and islets may serve as a noninvasive biomarker to monitor β-cell dysfunction in diabetes.

Abstract
Diabetes is a very complex disease which is characterized by the appearance of insulin resistance that is primarily compensated by an increase in pancreatic beta cell mass, generating hyperinsulinemia. After time, pancreatic beta cells die by apoptosis appearing in the second phase of the disease, and characterized by hypoinsulinemia. There are multiple conditions that can alter pancreatic beta cell homeostasis and viability, being the most relevant ones; ER stress, cytotoxicity by amylin, mTORC1 hyperactivity, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation and alterations in autophagy/mitophagy flux. In addition, the possible effects that different polyphenols could exert in the modulation of these mechanisms and regulating pancreatic beta cell viability are analyzed. It is necessary a profound analysis and understanding of all the possible mechanisms involved in the control and maintenance of pancreatic beta cell viability to develop more accurate and target treatments for controlling beta cell homeostasis and preventing or even reversing type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Effect of Aspirin on Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Stress in the Pancreas and Heart of Goto-Kakizaki Diabetic Rats. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11090902.

Abstract
Our previous study in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) type 2 diabetic rats provided significant evidence that aspirin treatment improves pancreatic β-cell function by reducing inflammatory responses and improving glucose tolerance. In the present study, we aimed to elucidate the mechanism of action of aspirin on the pathophysiology and progression of type 2 diabetic complications in the heart and pancreas of insulin-resistant GK rats. Aspirin treatment demonstrated a reduction in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and lipid peroxidation, accompanied by improved redox homeostasis. Furthermore, the recovery of metabolic and mitochondrial functions, as well as cytochrome P450 enzyme activities, which were altered in the pancreas and heart of GK rats, were observed. Aspirin treatment brought the activity of CYP 2E1 to the control level in both tissues, whereas the CYP 3A4 level decreased only in the pancreas. This suggests the tissue-specific differential metabolism of substrates in these rats. The recovery of redox homeostasis could be the key target in the improvement of oxidative-stress-dependent alterations in mitochondrial functions which, in turn, facilitated improved energy metabolism in these tissues in the aspirin-treated GK rats. These results may have implications in determining the therapeutic use of aspirin, either alone or in combination with other clinically approved therapies, in insulin-resistant type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a complex multifactorial disease characterized by insulin resistance and dysfunction of pancreatic β-cells. Rice husk silica liquid (RHSL) is derived from rice husks and has not been explored in diabetes mellitus until now. Previous studies showed that rice husk is enriched with silica, and its silica nanoparticles are higher more biocompatible. To investigate the potential protective role of RHSL on pancreatic β cells, we utilized RIN-m5F pancreatic β cells and explored RHSL effect after streptozotocin (STZ)-stimulation. The recovery effects of RHSL were evaluated using flow cytometry, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence analysis. Results of our study showed that RHSL reversed the cell viability, insulin secretion, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and the change of mitochondria membrane potential (ΔΨm) in STZ-treated RIN-m5F cells. Moreover, the expression of phospho-receptor-interacting protein 3 (p-RIP3) and cleaved-poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), phospho-mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR), and sequestosome-1 (p62/SQSTM1) were significantly decreased, while the transition of light chain (LC)3-I to LC3-II was markedly increased after RHSL treatment in STZ-induced RIN-m5F cells. Interestingly, using autophagy inhibitors such as 3-methyladenine (3-MA) and chloroquine (CQ) both showed an increase in cleaved-PARP protein level, indicating apoptosis induction. Taken together, this study demonstrated that RHSL induced autophagy and alleviated STZ-induced ROS-mediated apoptosis in RIN-m5F cells.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus and related disorders significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite the advances in the current therapeutic methods, further development of anti-diabetic therapies is necessary. Mitochondrial dysfunction is known to be implicated in diabetes development. Moreover, specific types of mitochondrial diabetes have been discovered, such as MIDD (maternally inherited diabetes and deafness) and DAD (diabetes and Deafness). Hereditary mitochondrial disorders are caused by certain mutations in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), which encodes for a substantial part of mitochondrial proteins and mitochondrial tRNA necessary for mitochondrial protein synthesis. Study of mtDNA mutations is challenging because the pathogenic phenotype associated with such mutations depends on the level of its heteroplasmy (proportion of mtDNA copies carrying the mutation) and can be tissue-specific. Nevertheless, modern sequencing methods have allowed describing and characterizing a number of mtDNA mutations associated with human disorders, and the list is constantly growing. In this review, we provide a list of mtDNA mutations associated with diabetes and related disorders and discuss the mechanisms of their involvement in the pathology development.
